Founding Product Designer

About Cleric

Cleric is an AI-powered agent designed to manage and resolve issues in production environments autonomously. It uses an LLM based reasoning engine to react to, interpret, and implement solutions to production issues, even those it's encountering for the first time.

All the relevant skills, qualifications and experience that a successful applicant will need are listed in the following description.

Technology companies are grappling with the complexity of production environments, distracting engineers from their core task of software development.

Engineers are drowning in a sea of observability data, but still require manual intervention to solve problems.

We envision a future where engineers can concentrate on software development while Cleric takes care of the production environment.

Our mission is to develop autonomous software that can manage, repair, and optimize itself the holy grail.

Now is a magical time to join. We're a small group of veterans in AI, software, and infrastructure, backed by a leading AI venture capital firm and Silicon Valley angels.

About the role

AI embodied through agents are an entirely new class of product. One that requires deep thought in how teams should interact with their new AI team members.

Your role as product designer is to make the hybrid workforce of the future a reality in a way that feels familiar and natural.

This role is critical to the success of our company, and requires an innate product and UX sense, technical aptitude, great taste, and craft.

Ideally, these qualities describe you

• You seek to understand the needs of customers then explore and advocate for the strongest user experiences to solve their problem.
• You create clear, intuitive, and visually appealing human interfaces.
• You care about business needs, implications, and practicality of your designs. You don't get stuck on pretty UI or deep abstractions and can balance between craft, speed, and the bottom line.
• You have strong beliefs, loosely held. You're a good listener who collaborates well with different stakeholders. You observe and internalize all inputs and feedback to help you reach an optimal decision.
• You value working cross-functionally with project management, engineering, research and data as well as design peers.
• You are proficient in using modern design tools like Figma, Sketch, Adobe XD, Miro or similar.
• You have experience in designing for AI or machine learning products.
• You are familiar with conducting and integrating user research into your design process.

Examples of what you’ll do

• Design product concepts that balance vision, craft, speed, and business potential.
• Craft every detail of new product features, from idea to UX to pixel-perfect execution.
• Run projects end to end with engineers (frontend and backend) to drive your vision to the end product.
• Conduct user research and integrate findings into your designs.
• Devise ways to tell great stories throughout the user lifecycle and our product.
• Create new patterns that are intuitive, practical, and convergent. Evolve our design system intentionally as we scale.

How we work :

• Less is more : Small teams deliver impactful outcomes. Our focus is on meaningful work rather than long hours.
• Culture is critical : We value excitement and chemistry. We only bring in the right people who align with our vision.
• Transparent compensation : We’ll give you levers to adjust your compensation. $120k-$180k base, and 1.5% to 0.5% equity.

401k matching. Great healthcare.

• We’re in-person : We move faster when we work from the same room. We have offices in Singapore and San Francisco. We’re open to hybrid, but not fully remote.
• An AI-first approach : We don't simply build AI products; we augment ourselves with it.

Interview process :

The whole process takes less than one day.

• Screen : A quick call with one of the founders.
• Technical assessment : We’ll talk through a real use case with you to understand how you think and approach open ended problems.
• Culture fit : We’ll talk through your background, what drives you, and share a bit more about our team and culture.
• Food : Grab lunch or dinner with us!
