Role

Who you are

Open to wearing multiple hats occasionally: getting product design feedback directly from customers, designing graphics for marketing content, or helping with a blog post
Experience working directly and closely with engineers and or data teams
6+ years of industry experience in a product design role
Operate well autonomously within a fast paced environment
B2B, SaaS, developer tools, data, analytics tools (Segment, Amplitude.) or AI design experience advantageous

What the job involves

We’re looking for a staff level designer to help shape the future of Shaped. This work will require excellence in systems thinking and understanding the needs of our two primary users: engineers looking to work with our API and companies looking to gather insights from their use of our product
Primary responsibility is to lead the design for the interface of the Shaped machine-learning platform which allows developers to create bespoke AI models for recommendation system algorithms and understand their users data
In this role you'll be working 1:1 with the founders of Shaped to design product features needed over the next few sprints as well as craft a long term vision for the future of the company
This is not a role that requires pixel perfect designs created over 3 months — it requires a sense of when to move fast and slow so we can scale the company as a team

Our take

Shaped is an AI-powered, fully managed search and recommendation system for marketplaces, eCommerce and content companies. It enables businesses to add real-time personalization to the experiences of their customers, supporting improved engagement, conversion and revenue.

Backed by Y-combinator, Shaped has grown from its original offering of an API to engineers and now delivers a full product suite encompassing semantic search and a real-time recommendation platform. Combined, this allows enterprises to leverage their own data alongside large language models to quickly and securely build tailored user experiences.

With its self-serve approach, Shaped enables companies to build these customer experiences without the costs of building from the ground up. Its a valuable offering, which has led to the company securing substantial funding. This will be used to continue expanding operations and business reach.
