About The Role

Location: Hybrid Chicago, IL or New York, NY (3 days in office required)

Job Type: Full-time, 60-day contract-to-hire

Were looking for a product designer who wants to build not just direct. Youll be our first full-time designer and will own everything from UX strategy to high-fidelity Figma mocks. Youll be deeply hands-on, designing the core user experience of Aviarys AI voice platform and knowledge base used by financial institutions.

This role is highly cross-functional. Youll collaborate closely with engineering, sales, and Client Deployment & Success, who works directly with clients and gathers real-world feedback. Together, youll help translate on-the-ground insights into intuitive, elegant product experiences.

What Youll Do

  • Own design end-to-end: From wireframes to production-ready UI in Figma.
  • Coordinate with engineering: Ensure designs are buildable and well-documented.
  • QA and test releases: Help test features pre-launch and ensure designs are executed as intended.
  • Run feedback loops: Collaborate with our Client Deployment & Success Lead to incorporate frontline feedback into design decisions.
  • Improve usability: Identify friction points in the product and propose UX solutions.
  • Maintain our design system: Establish and evolve a consistent visual language across the platform.
  • Contribute to roadmap: Support roadmap planning with input from users and internal teams.
  • Manage releases: Help plan and coordinate product releases with internal stakeholders.

About You

  • Strong portfolio demonstrating UI/UX work (ideally in B2B SaaS).
  • Proficient in Figma with a keen eye for usability, interaction, and visual design.
  • Comfortable working in ambiguous environments with a bias toward action.
  • Strong communication skills and ability to collaborate across technical and non-technical teams.
  • Curious about how data flows in the product (you dont need to code, but should want to understand how things work).
  • Based in or willing to relocate to Chicago/New York (hybrid role).
  • This role may require travel 4-5 days a month to meet with clients or other team members.

Nice to Have

  • Experience coordinating cross-functional teams and product releases.
  • Exposure to AI tools in regulated industries like finance or insurance.
  • Familiarity with client success workflows or collaboration with support/CS teams.
  • Experience using tools like Notion and Linear.
  • Understanding of how data flows through systems familiarity with database structures (e.g., SQL schemas) is a plus, even if you dont write code.

Why This Role is Unique

  • Youll own the design of a live, revenue-generating AI product from day one.
  • Youll be a key contributor to the product roadmap and company direction with a path to grow into product management or ownership.
  • Youll shape the design culture and systems from scratch in a high-autonomy environment.
