Design Engineer (Product Designer) / SaaS, AI-Driven

We’re hiring a Design Engineer to join our studio and become the second designer on an ambitious AI-native SaaS product for the real estate market.

The product is an AI-native operating system covering the full property deal lifecycle, from listings and compliance to sales, rentals, payments, and operations. The AI assistant is a core part of the product experience, not just an additional feature.

The project has been running for about a month. We’ve already established the product direction, visual language, and working process, and now we’re expanding the design team to move faster.

You’ll work alongside another product designer, our studio team, and directly with the client’s founder, product, and engineering teams.

Our workflow is AI-native too: we work primarily in Pen.dev together with Claude, supported by Storybook to keep components, patterns, and product UI consistent.

What you’ll actually be doing

Owning specific product areas and flows end to end.

Designing complex, multi-persona SaaS flows: listing automation, compliance/KYC, deal and rental workflows, document collaboration, payments.

Working on agentic AI and generative UI inside the product.

Designing and iterating through Pen.dev, Claude, and Storybook.

Building a design system the engineering team can actually use (tokens, component architecture, states) set up so an AI-first team can ship from it quickly.

Collaborating directly with the client’s leadership and engineering team as their go-to design person.

What we’re looking for

Solid product design experience with complex B2B SaaS: dashboards, multi-persona products, data-heavy or workflow-heavy interfaces. This is the core requirement.

Strong UI craft. You can take a brand direction and turn it into a polished, consistent, “premium” interface across many screens and states. The client cares deeply about design quality.

Hands-on experience building design systems. You’ve built or significantly contributed to one, and understand tokens, component architecture, and how to set things up so engineering can ship.

You actively use AI in your design workflow (Claude, Cursor, v0, Figma AI plugins, or similar) and have a point of view on how design and AI-first engineering work together. Comfort generating and iterating on screens/flows with AI tooling is a real plus.

Comfortable in a fast-moving, international startup environment where “70–80% good enough, then iterate” beats endless polish, while still holding a high quality bar.

Systematic, disciplined and reliable. This team runs on a lightweight, async, gated process: you take something, finish it properly, and hand it off. If you give clear context, structure your thinking and stand behind your decisions, you’ll thrive here.

Experience working in a structured spec/documentation environment (Confluence, Jira or similar). You’re comfortable picking up context from written specs and working async.

Strong communication skills and English. You’ll be working directly with the client’s team.
