with a portfolio showcasing exceptional UI, UX, and interaction design. Exceptional taste

- you understand platform patterns, gesture design, and what makes apps feel magical on iPhone. Comfortable with variety
- you get energized switching between product UI, web design, character work, and marketing assets. You want to own the full visual experience, not specialize in one area. Data-informed and execution-focused
- you use analytics and user feedback to guide decisions, ship quickly in fast-paced environments, and excel at taking clear direction and turning it into polished reality. Strong collaborator
- you articulate design rationale clearly and work closely with product and engineering. Based in NYC or willing to relocate - this is an
in-person role . Animation and motion design skills
in Lottie, Rive, or similar tools. Character design or illustration
experience - mascots, visual systems, or branded characters. Graphic design passion with strong typography skills
- you have a sense for layout, hierarchy, and type that elevates every touchpoint. Background in
health tech, behavior change, or gamification
products. You've been a
founding designer or early design hire
at a high-growth startup. About us
Dots is a seed-stage startup building MeAgain, the #1 GLP-1 Companion App in the US. Our core product is an AI-powered GLP-1 coach that helps users safely navigate medication use, mitigate side effects, and build long-term lifestyle habits for sustainable results. In under six months, our three-person team bootstrapped to profitability, achieving a $4M annual run-rate, 200K+ downloads, and 50K+ paying users. We recently closed a seed round from top-tier VCs and seasoned founders who\'ve built and exited multiple companies. Demand is outpacing what we can keep up with, and we\'re ready to scale. We sit at the intersection of two of the biggest consumer transformations of the decade: GLP-1s:
The fastest-growing drug class in history, already used weekly by 20–30M Americans. By 2035, that number could exceed 100M. GLP-1s are reshaping how people lose weight, manage health, and live. Consumer AI:
We believe AI will redefine the consumer health experience. Our AI companion is already deeply integrated and expanding rapidly - from assisting users today to taking real-world actions tomorrow. Join us early, and help shape what the next generation of consumer health looks like. Over the coming years, your family and friends will tell you how much they love MeAgain - and that it\’s incredible you were part of building it. Impact from Day One. We move fast and stay lean. Your work will immediately shape shipping velocity, product direction, and user outcomes. Purpose that\'s personal. Every day, you\'ll build something that helps people regain control of their health and their lives. Our users don\'t just like MeAgain - they say it changed their entire weight loss journey. Location and other role details are on-site in New York, NY.
