AI Product Designer

You’ll play a critical role in shaping Durable’s core user experience. You’ll lead the design of intelligent, AI-native systems that feel proactive, intuitive, and approachable. This isn’t a traditional SaaS design role, you’ll be inventing new patterns for interacting with AI, simplifying complex tasks into beautiful flows, and helping small business owners feel empowered by AI, not afraid of it.

You’ll work cross-functionally with product, engineering, and leadership to define what great AI UX looks like and set the standard for how we build it. You’ll be a force multiplier for the design team: guiding others, raising the bar, and delivering work that moves the business forward.

What we look for

• 5+ years of product design experience on shipped B2C products, with a portfolio you can speak to in depth
• Comfortable producing in code or with AI-assisted coding tools (v0, Cursor, or equivalent)
• Fluent with the current generation of AI creative tooling (image gen, video gen, voice) and opinionated about where they're useful
• Experience designing AI or generative experiences: prompt interfaces, automated output, multi-modal interactions
• Systems thinking: design patterns and component libraries that scaled beyond the features you built them for
• Bonus: you have an eye for exceptional brand design and motion and want to help us push the Durable brand further (in product and across marketing)
• Bonus: startup experience or having launched something of your own

Application process

Your works speaks louder than your resume. We want to see how you think, what you've made, and how you work with AI. Our application asks for three things:

1. A Loom video (2-3 minutes)

Tell us who you are, what you're working on or have recently built, and how AI is a core part of how you work. Don't script it. We want to see how you think out loud.

2. Something you've built or designed

A link, a side project, a campaign. Anything that shows what you're capable of making. One strong example beats ten weak ones.

3. A few short questions

1. Why Durable
2. Where are you located
3. What are your salary expectations

Fine print

We are a Vancouver-based company and candidates need to be based in Canada. Remote is fine - you can expect travel to Vancouver once per quarter (minimum) to work in-office with the team.

Compensation is $150,000–$210,000 CAD base plus equity, for Vancouver-based candidates, depending on seniority. Actual salary takes experience, location, and other factors into account.
