First Designer

// the mission

Shape a product from scratch

Marktic is a full-stack AI platform. We're a small founding team building a new kind of software, and we're looking for someone to shape how people experience it.

You'd be our first designer. There's no design system to inherit, no Figma graveyard to maintain. You're starting from scratch, with real influence over a brand new product.

We're starting with a focused project engagement—enough to build something real together and see if the fit is right on both sides. For the right person, this becomes a permanent role with equity and full team membership.

// the role

What you'll do

Own the entire user experience—from early research and exploration through interaction design, prototyping, and shipping polished interfaces alongside our engineers.

• Design complex workflows, data-dense dashboards, and AI-driven interactions
• Sketch new interaction models one day, tighten a button label the next
• Work across the full product surface—the problem space is wide open
• Turn abstract, messy problems into clear, elegant experiences

What we're looking for

Tools matter less than thinking clearly, but here's what maps to the work.

// quality bar

What "good" looks like

• You can take a foggy product idea and come back with three different ways to think about it
• You reason about tradeoffs: pixel-perfect vs. ship-it-now, delight vs. clarity, flexibility vs. simplicity
• You design things that make complex systems feel obvious
• You have strong instincts for hierarchy, flow, and reducing cognitive load—especially when a lot is happening at once

Start flexible, stay permanent
