Senior Product Designer role on the Design Team, reporting to the Chief Design Officer, covering product, interaction, and visual design for developer and AI products. Work involves collaborating with product and engineering on user flows, prototypes, and user research, with engagement in the open source AI community. Required skills include Figma and 5+ years of B2C/B2B software design experience; front-end coding is a plus.
Lightning AI is the company behind PyTorch Lightning. Founded in 2019, we build an end-to-end platform for developing, training, and deploying AI systems—designed to take ideas from research to production with less friction.
Through our merger with Voltage Park, a neocloud and AI Factory, Lightning AI combines developer-first software with cost-efficient, large-scale compute. Teams get the tools they need for experimentation, training, and production inference, with security, observability, and control built in.
We serve solo researchers, startups, and large enterprises. Lightning AI operates globally with offices in New York City, San Francisco, Seattle, and London, and is backed by Coatue, Index Ventures, Bain Capital Ventures, and Firstminute.
The people who thrive here are builders who move fast, communicate openly, take ownership, and continuously improve themselves, their teams, and our company. Here's what that looks like in practice:
We're hiring two Senior Product Designers to shape how developers and AI teams build, train, and run AI on Lightning. You'll own end-to-end product experiences across our platform. That ranges from the first five minutes a solo developer spends with us to the workflows enterprise teams rely on to run models on large-scale compute. It also includes new products like GraphN, which helps any software engineer build AI workflows with no ML background required.
We want designers who think like product owners, learn technical domains fast, and hold a high bar for craft. You'll spend real time with users: running tests, watching sessions, and turning what you learn into better product decisions. You'll use AI the way our customers do, to explore more ideas, prototype in code, and ship faster.
You'll join the Design team and report to our Chief Design Officer. This is a hybrid role based in our San Francisco, Seattle, or New York City office, in office 2 days per week.
