Cyvl Senior Product Designer owns the customer experience for Cyvl's infrastructure AI platform, working closely with product and engineering teams. Leads design from discovery through production.
Responsibilities
You'll be Cyvl's only product designer, and you'll own how customers experience Cyvl, from the sensor on their vehicle to the platform on their screen. Reporting to our VP of Product, you'll work daily with PMs and engineers in pitch-based build cycles. PMs frame the problem; you get in front of public works teams, shape the answer, and ship it. As we grow, you'll build and lead Cyvl's design function. This is pure product design, not marketing or brand: what you ship is what public works crews use to fix real streets.
Run discovery with public works teams to learn what they're trying to get done and where our product gets in their way.
Build pitches with product and engineering and take them all the way to production, often in the code yourself.
Turn LiDAR, imagery, and condition data into interfaces a busy public works director gets in seconds. Prototype fast with Claude Code or similar tools.
Dig into product analytics and customer data to find friction and make the call on what to fix.
Own the design system and the platform's future look and feel, and help shape the field-capture experience with our hardware team.
Startup experience. 5+ years designing B2B enterprise software, with real time inside a high-growth, VC-backed startup. Have 3+ years plus a background in PM, engineering, or industrial design? Let's talk.
Customer obsession. You'd rather watch a public works crew in the field than guess in Figma. You turn what you hear into sharp business decisions, and customers trust you in the room.
You build and ship. You push UX changes to production code yourself, not just hand off files.
A portfolio that shows you take messy, complex systems and make them feel effortless.
Fluency in data and AI. Comfortable in a codebase, at home in the analytics, and you understand data models and AI/ML well enough to design for them. We use Figma, Claude Code, or PostHog, but we care about the outcomes, not the tool.

Preferred
You've designed across hardware and software, or you bring an industrial design sense.
You've designed agentic or AI-driven experiences, and ready to build for what comes next.
Hard tech. Real streets. Your name on it.
Hard problems in the real world. You build end-to-end: our own hardware, software and AI, with work that shows up on the street in the real world.
Ownership that compounds. You own outcomes, not tasks. You work directly with customers and across our team, and you'll own more, sooner, than almost anywhere else.
Intense, with heart. We're building a category, so it's not a place to coast. We also take care of each other, have genuine fun together, and believe in what we are doing.
Cross lanes. "Not my job" doesn't exist here.
Own without a playbook. The plan is still being written, often by you.
