About the role
We are looking for a Product Designer to cover a 6-month maternity leave. This is a solo-designer role by nature: you'll own live product work from week one, running your own surfaces end to end, sitting at the intersection of complex data and intuitive visual storytelling.
Because the window is six months, we care far more about how fast you ramp, learn, and decide on your own than about how many years you have on paper. If you are the kind of designer who reads the product, forms an opinion, and ships, you will do well here.
What You'll Do:
Own design end to end for several product areas in parallel: discovery, flows, UI, prototypes, pixel-perfect handoff, and QA of what actually ships.
Design AI-native experiences: conversational and agentic interfaces, generated content, states of uncertainty, and the trust and control patterns that help food industry professionals navigate our AI insights with ease.
Maintain and extend our design system on both sides: components and tokens in Figma, and their real counterparts in the code repo.
Work directly with engineers, product managers, marketing, and internal product builders, without a layer of translation in between.
Use AI tooling as part of your daily craft, from exploration through to working prototypes and, where it helps, real code.
Requirements
Must-have
3+ years designing digital products. We weigh evidence of speed and independent judgment above the number itself.
Hands-on AI tooling. Figma Make, Claude Code, Cursor, or equivalents, used in real work rather than experiments. You should be able to show what you built with them and what you decided not to.
Design systems experience, including ownership. Not only consuming a system, but building, governing, and evolving one, in Figma and in the code repo.
Systematic thinking. You design for scale and consistency, and you can hold product, business, and user perspectives at the same time.
Multi-project throughput. Comfortable running several workstreams at once with developers, marketing, product, and internal builders.
Self-direction. You take an ambiguous problem, break it down yourself, and come back with a proposal rather than a list of questions.
Nice to have
Working comfort in a Git repo: branches, pull requests, reviewing what shipped against what you designed.
Coding ability at the level of implementing or adjusting your own design in code.
Experience as a solo or first designer in a startup.
Marketing or brand design range: landing pages, campaign assets, decks, product marketing surfaces.
B2B SaaS, data-heavy products, or enterprise workflows.
