Job Level
About the role
- Own the end-to-end design of Struction’s product experience, from early concept through shipped pixels.
- Design interfaces that make complex construction data simple, intuitive, and human-centric: drawing viewers, knowledge graphs, material tables, takeoff workflows, AI-generated outputs, cross-component referencing and synchronization.
- Develop and maintain a coherent design system that scales as we expand from a few product surfaces to many
- Conduct user research with customers to deeply understand their workflows, pain points, and mental models
- Translate cutting edge, ambiguous, and novel AI capabilities into clear, trustworthy user experiences - helping users understand what the system did, why, and how to interact with it
- Collaborate directly with engineers to ship designs with high fidelity; plan to be in the code review, not just the handoff
- Provide a leg-up to Struction engineers through fully-functioning mockups, AI prototypes, and detailed experience design
- Shape product direction alongside founders and engineering; design has a seat at the table, not a ticket queue
- Report directly to the CEO
Requirements
- 5+ years of UI / UX design experience, with at least 2 years as the primary or sole designer on a product
- You appreciate and have worked in the creative intersection of physical reality and software
- Your portfolio demonstrates strong systems thinking; not just beautiful interfaces, but coherent, scalable product experiences
- You’re fluent in both high-fidelity UI craft and low-fidelity rapid exploration; you know when to polish and when to sketch and move between fluidly
- You’ve designed for data-dense, workflow-heavy applications (developer tools, analytics platforms, multi-media viewers, or similar) with view-state conditions
- You’ve shipped designs for AI-native products or features and understand the UX challenges of non-deterministic systems, confidence intervals, and human-in-the-loop correction
- You’re a strong communicator who can articulate design rationale to engineers, founders, and customers without hiding behind jargon
- You’re comfortable with ambiguity and speed… you’d rather ship and learn than wait for perfect specs
- You have deep empathy for users who aren’t like you, such as estimators and pre-construction professionals who have never used a product like this before
- You have a sense of humor
- You’re gritty & scrappy
- You’re god-tier on Figma
Benefits
- fully-paid health insurance
- 401k
- a once-in-a-lifetime experience
