Senior UX Designer

Kamiwaza develops an enterprise AI platform that enables organizations to connect their data, deploy AI applications, and run intelligent workflows on their own infrastructure or private clouds.

The company focuses on making enterprise AI practical, secure, and accessible, helping teams work with complex data and AI-powered systems.

About the Role

Kamiwaza is hiring a Senior UX Designer to simplify complex enterprise AI experiences and make them more intuitive, transparent, and trustworthy.

Reporting directly to the CTO, you'll take ownership of UX research, interaction design, visual design, prototyping, and design systems.

You'll work across the entire product lifecycle, collaborating with Product, Engineering, Marketing, and customer-facing teams to improve how users connect data, interact with AI agents, manage permissions, and collaborate.

This is a hands-on individual contributor role with significant autonomy and direct influence on the product experience.

Key Responsibilities

• Research customer workflows and identify usability challenges across enterprise AI applications.
• Simplify onboarding, data connections, application discovery, AI agent interactions, permissions, and collaborative workflows.
• Design AI interfaces that clearly communicate capabilities, limitations, sources, and results while maintaining appropriate user control.
• Create user flows, information architecture, responsive interfaces, prototypes, and polished visual designs.
• Conduct user interviews, usability tests, and design experiments to validate solutions.
• Develop accessible design patterns, reusable components, and design tokens in collaboration with Engineering and Marketing.
• Apply AI-assisted tools to research synthesis, prototyping, exploration, and documentation while validating outputs and protecting sensitive information.
• Collaborate with engineers throughout implementation, design QA, and post-launch improvements.
• Measure design effectiveness through usability, adoption, task completion, and product performance indicators.

Requirements

• Demonstrated senior-level experience designing and shipping complex software products.
• Strong UX/UI expertise, including interaction design, visual hierarchy, typography, responsive layouts, and interface writing.
• Experience conducting user research, usability testing, and translating findings into practical design decisions.
• Ability to translate brand guidelines into consistent, accessible product experiences.
• Hands-on experience using AI-assisted design and prototyping tools, with sound judgment when evaluating their outputs.
• Knowledge of accessibility principles, reusable UI patterns, and design systems.
• Ability to collaborate effectively with engineers and understand technical constraints.
• Strong communication, independent decision-making, and problem-solving skills.
• Portfolio demonstrating ownership, design decisions, research validation, and measurable outcomes.

Nice to Have

• Experience designing enterprise software, data platforms, developer tools, or complex permission systems.
• Familiarity with AI agents, retrieval systems, generative AI, or interfaces involving uncertain outputs.
• Experience developing design systems, tokens, and reusable implementation guidance.
• Ability to prototype in code or collaborate closely on technical prototypes.
• Experience working with security-sensitive or regulated environments.

Compensation & Benefits

Annual base salary: $160,000–$235,000 USD, depending on experience, expected impact, and location.

Additional benefits include:

• Equity compensation
• Medical, dental, and vision insurance
• Disability and life insurance
• 401(k) retirement plan with a 4% employer match
• FSA/HSA options
• Paid time off
• Remote-work support

Location & Interview Requirements

This position is fully remote within the United States, with collaboration during U.S. business hours.

Applicants must be legally authorized to work in the United States without requiring current or future visa sponsorship.

Important: The interview process includes an in-person interview in Colorado. Kamiwaza will arrange and cover reasonable travel and accommodation expenses.

Build Better Experiences for Enterprise AI

Designing enterprise AI products requires more than polished interfaces. Users need to understand what AI systems are doing, evaluate their outputs, and remain in control of important decisions.

For designers looking to strengthen their knowledge of AI-powered experiences, Designlab's AI Product Design Certification (Affiliate link) offers an opportunity to explore practical AI design methods and workflows.
