UX Design Engineer

Location: Remote - USA

Salary: $165k–$200k + equity


We’re working with a high-growth, well-funded AI company building a category-defining platform at the intersection of AI, LLMs, and developer tooling.

This is a unique opportunity for someone who sits between engineering and design, a UX-focused engineer who cares deeply about product experience and wants to own how a highly technical platform feels to use.


The Role

This isn’t traditional product design, and it’s not pure frontend engineering either. It’s a hybrid role focused on refining and elevating the end-to-end user experience of a complex, technical product.

You’ll work closely with senior engineers who build core features, your job is to make those features intuitive, seamless, and genuinely enjoyable to use.


What You’ll Be Doing

  • Analyse real user behaviour (session replays, feedback) to identify friction points
  • Rapidly prototype and iterate on UX flows (Figma or directly in code)
  • Implement polished UI improvements, interactions, and transitions
  • Partner with engineering to refine complex workflows into clean, usable experiences
  • Build reusable patterns and contribute to design systems
  • Run lightweight usability testing to validate improvements


What They’re Looking For

  • Engineering background (frontend or similar) with strong UX instincts
  • Experience working on complex B2B, developer, or data-heavy products
  • Proven track record of improving product usability and experience
  • Comfortable prototyping in Figma and/or code
  • Strong attention to detail across edge cases, states, and interactions
  • Passion for craft - someone who cares about the difference between “working” and “delightful”


Why It’s Interesting

  • Dedicated focus on UX quality, not an afterthought to feature delivery
  • Highly technical product with real UX challenges to solve
  • Strong product-market fit and growing enterprise adoption
  • High ownership, high impact, and a team that values craftsmanship


If you’re a frontend-leaning engineer who enjoys shaping product experience and sweating the details, this is a rare role to truly own that space.
