Staff UX Designer

About Artisan

Artisan is building the next generation of AI-native tools for modern go-to-market teams. We design intelligent systems that automate and accelerate revenue workflows across the entire customer lifecycle. As an early design leader, you’ll shape not only the product, but the culture, processes, and design foundations of the company.

Location : San Francisco and New York

Team : Product & Design

Reports to : CPTO

Role Overview

We are looking for a Staff UX Designer who can operate as a hybrid product strategist, systems thinker, prototyper, and design leader . You will work on complex, multi-layered AI workflows, define interaction models for autonomous agents, and craft intuitive experiences for GTM teams that rely on clarity, speed, and trust. This role requires deep experience designing for ambiguous problem spaces, driving cross-functional collaboration, and owning UX from discovery to final craft. You will set quality standards, influence product vision, and mentor other designers as the team scales.

What You’ll Do

• Own end-to-end UX for some of the company’s most strategic AI-powered workflows.
• Translate ambiguous product opportunities into clear, structured UX strategies and interaction models.
• Partner tightly with Product, Engineering, and ML teams to define user journeys, prototypes, and system behaviors.
• Design multi-step flows, data-rich interfaces, and scalable design patterns for complex GTM use cases.
• Drive user research and usability testing to validate hypotheses and refine product decisions.
• Develop a coherent design system that can scale as the product expands.
• Raise the bar for design quality across the organization—both through hands‑on craft and mentorship.
• Help define the long‑term product vision and roadmap from a UX‑led perspective.
• Serve as a bridge between near‑term execution and long‑term strategic thinking.

Who You Are

Strategic Designer

You think in systems and flows, not just screens. You can turn messy problems into structured plans and communicate design rationale clearly to founders, engineers, and stakeholders.

Builder at Heart

You thrive in fast-moving environments with limited process and imperfect information. You operate autonomously and unblock yourself without waiting for direction.

High‑Caliber Craftsperson

You care deeply about clarity, precision, and usability. You sweat the details and deliver highly polished work—even in high-speed environments.

Cross‑Functional Partner

You collaborate naturally with PMs, engineers, ML researchers, and leadership. You know how to influence decisions without authority.

Comfortable with AI Product Complexity

You’ve designed for workflows involving automation, decision support, or data-heavy experiences. You understand how to create trustworthy, transparent, and understandable AI interactions.
