About the Role

This is a rare opportunity to join a small, elite design team at a Series B AI-powered EdTech platform that reaches tens of millions of students across more than 30 countries. You'll work at the centre of a major shift toward AI-native product experiences, with direct access to C-level leadership to shape the product vision from day one. Your work will be seen — and felt — by millions of learners every day. We're going all-in on design craft and AI-native experiences. If you believe details are the design, ship faster than you deck, and see AI as a genuine multiplier rather than a buzzword, this role is built for you.

Responsibilities

Own entire product areas end-to-end — from conception to delivery — working directly with C-level and engineering to ship ideas to millions of students within days.
Raise the quality bar on everything students see, touch, and feel — world-class UI, motion design, and micro-interactions that set a new standard.
Build and scale a design system from the ground up — curated references, stellar components, and sharp reviews that make quality easy to replicate across the team.
Pioneer AI-native design — develop AI-assisted workflows and AI-native product experiences that change how the team researches, ideates, and ships.
Set the reference point — create UIs students want to screenshot and details they feel but can't name.
Mentor and guide more junior designers, raising the collective craft of the team.

Requirements

Several years of product design experience with a portfolio that demonstrates shipped work — work that moved metrics and delighted real users (portfolio matters more than tenure).
Actively uses AI tools across the full design loop: prototyping, research, and shipping — not experimenting, multiplying.
Systems thinker who scales quality across a product, not just a pretty component library — code-first design systems, AI-powered design reviews, whatever works at speed and scale.
Proven ability to simplify complex, messy user journeys into experiences that feel obvious.
Bias toward action: prototypes over presentations, experiments over endless debate.
Experience guiding and levelling up more junior designers.
Builder mentality — bonus if you've shipped a side project end-to-end or opened a merge request.
Background in consumer apps, EdTech, or fast-paced B2C environments.
Experience at companies like Quizlet, Khan Academy, Brainly, Memrise, Chegg, or similar consumer/EdTech products.
Prefer fast shipping over slow deliberation.
Embrace AI tools in your workflow.
Work as a team-first collaborator.
Default to prototypes and experiments over decks and presentations.
