Product UI/UX Designer - AI-Native Visual Storytelling Platform

About OpenArt

OpenArt is an AI-native visual storytelling platform used by millions of creators worldwide. We build production-grade tools for AI image and video generation, with a focus on making advanced models usable, intuitive, and expressive for real users.

Our work sits at the intersection of creativity, storytelling, and applied AI. We care deeply about product clarity, usability, and translating powerful technology into experiences that feel natural and accessible.

The Role

We are looking for a Product UI/UX Designer to own the end-to-end design of core OpenArt workflows. This role is highly cross-functional and product-oriented, spanning user research, UX architecture, interaction design, and polished UI execution.

You will work closely with product, engineering, and research to define product direction, shape user journeys, and turn ambiguous ideas into clear, usable systems. This is a role for designers who think in flows and systems, not just screens.

Partner closely with Product, Engineering, and Research to define product direction and prioritize high-impact features

Anticipate edge cases and secondary use cases, ensuring robustness and clarity across workflows

Bring structure to ambiguous problem spaces by asking the right questions and synthesizing inputs

Create wireframes, prototypes, and high-fidelity designs that balance usability, creativity, and storytelling

Contribute to a consistent design language that supports scalable product development

Advocate for human-centered design in AI-powered products

Proficiency with design and prototyping tools such as Figma

Strong UI fundamentals, with an emphasis on clarity and usability over decoration

Comfort working in ambiguous, fast-moving product environments

Product & Collaboration Skills

Clear product mindset and strong judgment around trade-offs

Excited to work in a startup environment with high ownership and influence

Location & Work Setup

Bay Area preferred (hybrid encouraged)

Open to remote candidates across North America
