Role Overview
We're seeking an innovative AI-First UI/UX Design Manager to join our dynamic team at the forefront of internal innovation.
You'll report directly to the CEO and hold ultimate ownership of our e-commerce web design, revolutionizing our design process and customer experience through the integration of artificial intelligence while transforming the design team's creative process through AI-driven workflows.
The Career Accelerator
You'll compress 3 years of AI-first design leadership mastery into 1. You'll ship high-fidelity web experiences and conversion experiments in your first year. You'll transform how an entire design team works—implementing AI-powered creative operations that eliminate bottlenecks, cutting design to dev handoff time by 40% while rapidly exploring layouts and variants through Figma AI and Firefly, and mentoring your team through a fundamental technological shift that most design leaders won't navigate for years. This pace energizes impatient high-performers. It exhausts clock-watchers. If you get frustrated when you're not learning fast enough, you'll thrive here.
What Is In It For You:
This isn't just another design leadership role. This is your chance to become a true industry architect.
- Pioneer the Future of AI-Driven Design You won't just use AI tools—you'll architect an entirely new design operating system. You'll build prompt libraries, AI-assisted workflows, and quality frameworks that eliminate bottlenecks and cut handoff time by 40%. You'll design for conversational shopping, semantic search, and AI assistants while your peers are still debating whether to adopt Figma AI. This is your sandbox to experiment with bandit allocation, LLM-powered recommendations, and Gen AI content operations at scale. You'll master the balance between AI velocity and human craft that most designers won't understand for years.
