Product Design Expert

Mercor
San Francisco, CA
Job Description
Role Overview

As a Product Design Expert, you will construct scenarios spanning rapid prototyping, design system development, and cross-functional product-design-engineering collaboration. You will build tasks across AI-assisted application development, natural-language-to-code workflows, and rapid prototyping (Vibecoding); and UX/UI design, design systems, and component libraries. You will develop scenarios involving tools such as AI coding assistants (Cursor, Claude Code, v0, Replit) for the Vibecoding subdomain, and Figma, prototyping tools (Framer), and design systems tooling for the Design subdomain.

What You Will Do

Your main day-to-day responsibilities will include constructing scenarios, building tasks, and developing scenarios involving tools such as AI coding assistants and design systems tooling. You will apply subdomain-specific methodologies and author rubrics that distinguish authentic senior-level product judgment from generic tutorial-level or template-driven work.

Why It Might Be a Fit

This role might be a fit for you if you have 5+ years of experience working as a product designer, design lead, or AI-native engineer/vibecoder at a major product- or design-forward company, and you have direct ownership of product design systems or AI-assisted development workflows shipped to production.

Requirements

  • 5+ years working as a product designer, design lead, or AI-native engineer/vibecoder at a major product- or design-forward company
  • Direct ownership of product design systems or AI-assisted development workflows shipped to production
  • Fluency in vibecoding or design tooling, plus understanding of user-centered design principles and rapid prototyping practices
