Job Description
Fireflies is trusted by over 20 million people across more than 500,000 organizations from fast-growing startups to Fortune 500 enterprises. Ramp ranks Fireflies the sixth most purchased AI platform in the US. Those numbers are useful for establishing that the work matters, and almost useless for describing what the work is, because the interesting thing about designing Fireflies is not the scale. It's the condition the person is in when they arrive.
People arrive at Fireflies busy, distracted, and short on attention. They've just finished a meeting, have another in six minutes, and need to quickly find a decision, action item, notes, or catch up. Our job is to make the right things obvious, reduce cognitive load, and help them move forward with confidence.
AI is changing how people work, and we're building the software that changes with it.
Meetings were just the beginning. Today, Fireflies brings together context from meetings, email, Slack, CRMs, docs, and more to help people stay informed, make better decisions, and automate work. We're looking for Product designers/builders excited to design AI-first experiences for mobile and wearable devices.
Design at Fireflies
Builders
Designers at Fireflies are product builders.
They identify opportunities, challenge assumptions, prototype ideas, ship with AI tools, collaborate closely with engineers, stay close to customers, and continuously improve the product long after launch.
Curious
AI gives us the opportunity to rethink how software works. We're excited by designers who are curious, experiment often, and help define new interaction patterns that make AI intuitive, trustworthy, and genuinely useful.
Craft
People spend hours every day using Fireflies. Every interaction, animation, transition, piece of copy, and small detail contributes to how the product feels. We believe thoughtful craftsmanship creates products people enjoy coming back to.
Collaboration
Our best work comes from close collaboration between design, engineering, and product. We believe great ideas can come from anyone, and the strongest products are shaped together through open discussion, quick iteration, and shared ownership.
Users
We spend time with customers, understand how they work, and use those insights to shape every product decision. Building products people love starts with understanding the people we're building for.
Simplicity
We strive to make every experience simple, clean, and focused. We value designers who know what to simplify, what to prioritize, and what to leave out.
Judgment
We care less about following a specific design process and more about your ability to ask thoughtful questions, make sound decisions, balance tradeoffs, and know when to go deeper or move faster.
What you'll do
- Own product surfaces end to end, from identifying opportunities to shipping polished experiences that people love.
- Build and ship prototypes, experiments, and production-ready experiences using AI tools like Claude Code, Codex, Cursor, and whatever comes next.
- Improve Fireflies every day by spotting friction, refining workflows, and fixing the small details that make the product feel exceptional.
- Collaborate closely with engineers and product managers to turn ideas into thoughtful, high quality product experiences.
- Talk to customers regularly, develop a deep understanding of how they work, and turn those insights into better product decisions.
- Raise the quality bar across interaction design, visual design, motion, copy, and overall product craft.
Design beautiful mobile experiences for iOS and Android, considering mobile interaction patterns, device ergonomics, touch targets, navigation, and the constraints of smaller screens.
What we're looking for
- 3+ years of experience designing, building, and shipping mobile apps that customers love.
- Strong understanding of mobile design principles and ergonomics, with familiarity with Apple’s Human Interface Guidelines and Google’s Material Design.
- A portfolio that shows product thinking, interaction design, and visual craft.
- Curiosity to explore new ideas, challenge assumptions, and rethink how AI changes the way people interact with software.
- A product builder mindset with a desire to own experiences from concept to continuous improvement.
- Curiosity about AI and excitement for designing products that don't yet have established patterns.
- An eye for detail and a relentless drive to improve the product, even when no one asks.
Values that are important to us
- You take initiative and improve things without waiting to be asked.
- You care deeply about quality and the details that make software feel effortless.
- You use tools to automate repetitive work so you can spend more time solving meaningful problems.
- You invest in getting better every week, whether that's design, AI, or how you work.
- You communicate openly, give thoughtful feedback, and care more about finding the best answer than being right.
- You have an internal compass and take accountability & initiative.
Perks and benefits:
- Competitive compensation
- Work remotely anywhere in your respective country
- Ability to move laterally within a team and grow rapidly
- Paid time off and flexible leave policy
- No boss culture
