Job Description

Senior Product Designer

We're looking for a Senior Product Designer who can shape how internal communicators experience Workshop — and help define what it looks like when great design meets AI. This isn't a role where you execute a spec and hand it off. You'll work across the full arc of a product problem, from the fuzzy early stages to polished final experiences, and you'll bring other designers along with you as you go.

You'll be one of the people who helps us figure out what AI-assisted design looks like in practice — not as a buzzword, but as a genuine tool for making better products, faster. You're curious about it, experimenting with it, and excited to push the team forward on it.

This role reports to the Head of Product Design. It has no direct reports today, but mentorship and team leadership are a real part of the job.

This is a hybrid role based in Omaha, Nebraska.

As the Senior Product Designer, you will:

• Own design projects end-to-end — from early discovery and fuzzy problem framing through final delivery and iteration
• Collaborate closely with product, engineering, and cross-functional stakeholders to solve real, meaningful problems — not just make things look good
• Apply AI to your own workflow and to the products you're designing, and help the rest of the design team do the same
• Mentor and support other designers, giving them honest feedback, modeling good process, and helping them grow their confidence and craft
• Hold both the detail and the system at once — sweating the UI while also thinking about patterns, consistency, and product strategy
• Contribute to a design culture worth being part of: thoughtful critiques, useful documentation, and a bias toward learning out loud

To be successful in this role, you'll need to:

• Have 4+ years of product design experience, with meaningful time in a senior or lead capacity
• Show your work — a portfolio that demonstrates clear thinking, strong taste, and impact that you can actually speak to
• Be genuinely curious about AI: experimenting with it, learning from it, and helping others do the same — not just nodding along to the trend
• Move fluidly between detailed UI craft and higher-level product and systems thinking without losing the thread
• Communicate clearly and collaborate openly — you know how to work with engineers and PMs in a way that feels like partnership, not handoff

Bonus points if you:

• Have worked at a startup or agency and know what it means to ship in a fast, resource-constrained environment
• Have experience with AI products or B2B SaaS
• Have opinions about where AI is taking design — and can back them up with something more than vibes
• Have helped non-designers understand and use design systems, AI tools, or new workflows
• Bring a little delight into the work :)

Compensation and benefits:

• Hybrid role based in Omaha, Nebraska
• Competitive total compensation
• Stock options
• Healthcare
• 401(k)
• Unlimited vacation
• Flexible work environment
