PRODUCT DESIGNER — AI UX / PRODUCT EXPERIENCE
Location: SF (hybrid Tuesday-Thursday)
About Vapi (/ˈVɑːpi/): We're creating the shift to voice as humanity's default interface. We're the most configurable platform for deploying voice agents. We've grown to over 1M developers, adding thousands every day. Try talking to Vapi now!
WHY WE'RE HIRING THIS ROLE
We're building the next generation of AI product experiences and need someone who shapes product direction, not just executes on it. We want a designer who can help us see problems in new ways, raise the quality of our thinking, and create clear, high-leverage product experiences in a fast-moving AI environment.
WHAT YOU'LL DO
30 Day: Go deep on our complex, technical workflows. Understand the product surface end to end and how customers actually use it.
60 Day: Own an ambiguous problem area outright. Partner closely with engineering and product to turn it into a clear direction, and ship high-quality work quickly and iteratively.
90 Day: Contribute novel ideas and patterns that help define how AI-native workflows should work in practice. Be a voice that raises the level of the team, not just execution capacity.
WHO YOU ARE
- 5+ years experience: Exceptional candidates with less considered case by case
- Exceptional taste: You bring product and design judgment, not just solid execution; strong fundamentals and a modern design sensibility
- AI-Forward: You design with and around AI-augmented workflows, not just for AI products
- A rigorous thinker: You frame ambiguous problems clearly and ask sharp questions before jumping to solutions
- A systems thinker: With range, not at the expense of creativity and product insight
- B2B / enterprise background: You've designed for enterprise or B2B products, not legacy enterprise software (think Linear or Vercel, not Salesforce, Workday, or Microsoft)
- Comfortable with complexity: You're at home designing highly technical products and workflows
- Fluent in AI: You have up-to-date intuition for AI products, tooling, and workflow design
- Provably original: Your work has introduced new ideas, patterns, or ways of thinking to a team
- Fast in fast-moving environments: You've designed and shipped inside iterative, high-velocity product orgs
Strong Candidates May Also Have:
- Experience at companies known for distinctive product craft or novel UX patterns (Linear, Vercel, and similar next-gen AI product companies)
- Experience designing AI-native, workflow-heavy, or developer-facing products
- A track record of shipping in ambiguous, high-ownership environments
- A portfolio that shows both strong thinking and real execution
- Technical fluency, whether from a CS background, building your own tools, or years on developer-facing products
Not A Fit If:
- Primarily a mobile or consumer designer with no pull toward complex B2B
- Bootcamp-only design background with no broader technical grounding
- No prior tech industry experience
HOW WE'LL EVALUATE THIS ROLE
- How you think through ambiguous problems
- Whether you bring genuinely new perspectives
- Whether you can translate insight into shipped product quality
- Whether your work raises the bar for the team
WHY VAPI
- Generational impact: Build the human interface for every business
- Ownership culture: 70% of the company are previous founders
- Kind team: The founders, Jordan and Nikhil, are Canadians
- Tier-1 Investors: Peak XV, Kleiner Perkins, Bessemer, M12, YC
WHAT WE OFFER
- Real stake: We offer a competitive salary and excellent equity ownership
- Comprehensive health coverage: medical, dental, and vision plans
- Team love: We love hanging out, and we do quarterly off-sites
- Flexible time off: Take what you need
- More: Catered meals, transportation, gym, and a $10k annual L&D budget
Work location
- San Francisco, CA, US

About this listing
Published on Ashby under the board identifier Vapi, which is the name the employer’s own job board carries. RoleSprint has not verified the company’s registered or trading name, so it is shown exactly as published rather than tidied up.
RoleSprint is not the employer and not a recruiter. Applications are made on the employer’s own site and never reach us; what RoleSprint does is help you decide whether a role is worth your time and prepare for it if it is.
