Founding Product Designer

At Wayline, we’re building AI voice operators that handle leasing, maintenance, and tenant communication for thousands of rental units.

We’re looking for a Founding Product Designer who doesn’t just design—but builds, ships, and obsesses over product quality end-to-end.

This is not a Figma-only role.

What you’ll do

• Own the end-to-end product experience across voice, UI, and workflows
• Design and ship AI-native interfaces where humans and agents interact seamlessly
• Use tools like Claude Code to go from idea → production (not just prototypes)
• Define product architecture, interaction patterns, and system design
• Obsess over speed, clarity, and beauty in every detail

What we’re looking for

• Exceptional UX judgment — you simplify complex systems into intuitive experiences
• Strong visual design taste — you care deeply about how software feels
• Experience shipping real product (not just mocks or prototypes)
• Comfortable using AI tools to build (React / web stack + Claude Code)
• Deep interest in AI × human interaction design (agents, copilots, automation)
• Obsessed with design systems

Bonus:

• Experience with dev tools, internal tools, or workflow-heavy products
• Experience designing for AI systems, copilots, or conversational interfaces

What this role is

• You are the owner of product experience
• You will shape how customers interact with AI day-to-day
• You will work directly with the founders and customers and ship constantly

What this role is not

• Not a pixel pusher
• Not a design systems-only role
• Not someone handing off to engineers

Why Wayline

• We’re building core infrastructure for property managers
• Our customers manage thousands of units — this product matters
• Small team, high ownership, fast iteration
• Backed by top-tier investors
