We're looking for an AI Model Designer to join our team and become the bridge connecting our AI research innovations with world-class design principles. In this unique role, you'll help us teach our models how to be better copilots for designers. You'll work across all our products to improve our AI models' design capabilities and oversee evaluation quality.
This is an exciting opportunity to shape the future of design. As an arbiter of craft and taste, you’ll help raise the ceiling for what designers can create with AI and shape the future of design tools.

Collaborate closely with AI researchers to improve model performance from a design perspective
Develop and document design principles and heuristics that can be used by our AI systems
Build thorough methods to test and enhance the quality of AI-generated outputs
Oversee the quality of our design evaluations and give guidance to external partners
Be the bridge between the AI research team and designers, translating technical details for designers and design concepts for AI experts
We’d love to hear from you if you have:
Experience developing design heuristics and design principles
Experience leading design efforts for a suite of products or working on features that span multiple product lines
Experience using AI models for design tasks, either coding or image models
Proven track record in managing complex projects that involve collaboration across different teams and organizational boundaries
Experience managing contractors and multiple projects on tight timelines
Strong design background with excellent taste and attention to detail
While it’s not required, it’s an added plus if you also have:
Background in creating or evaluating AI-generated designs
Operational mindset with ability to improve processes
Technical understanding of AI/ML concepts and how they apply to design
Comfort navigating ambiguity and shaping open-ended challenges into clear goals
Strong communication skills for explaining complex concepts to both technical and non-technical stakeholders
