The Role We’re looking for a Product Designer to join the Messaging Experience Team—the team responsible for Ada’s real-time messaging channels, including chat and social integrations. You’ll help shape how our AI Agent communicates across these channels, and redefine what modern, intelligent messaging experiences can feel like. About You 3+ years of product design experience, including end-to-end work on complex, systems-driven products. Strong interaction and visual design skills — You’re precise, thoughtful, and care deeply about both form and function. Systems thinker — You design for how things work, not just how they look, and think in terms of patterns, behaviors, and modularity. Comfortable in ambiguity — You know how to explore the unknown, define problem spaces, and find signal in noise. User-first — You care about trust, clarity, and agency in AI-driven interactions—especially when things don’t go as expected. Collaborative communicator — You work fluidly with cross-functional teams and know how to bring people along through narrative, visuals, and clear rationale. Outcome-driven — You measure success by the clarity of the experience, the quality of the system, and the impact on the customer. Outcomes Design across surfaces — Influence how messaging is shaped across Ada’s chat widget and social channels, AI manager dashboard, and the AI Agent itself, creating cohesive experiences that work across multiple contexts. Shape the future of AI messaging — Define what a modern, intelligent support experience looks like across chat, mobile, and social channels. Bring a strong perspective on what "great" feels like in real-time, AI-powered conversations. Design the interaction patterns that make it real — Create modular, reusable components and interaction flows that balance UI and language-driven responses—grounded in accessibility, responsiveness, and system behavior. Collaborate directly with customers and internal teams — Run discovery with developers, CX leaders, and end users, gathering insights, testing new messaging patterns, and iterating quickly to refine the experience and drive adoption. Lead with insight — Translate ambiguous problems into structured flows, conceptual models, and prototypes that inform product direction and unlock decision-making.
