Role
Who you are
- A portfolio that demonstrates strong visual and interaction design
- Experience designing complex, technical, or developer-focused products
- Ability to take an ambiguous problem, understand the underlying customer need, explore multiple approaches, and drive to a strong solution
- Deep attention to typography, layout, hierarchy, interaction, and systems
- Experience working directly with engineers and customers, without layers of process in between
- A fast, prototype-early working style that uses what you learn to iterate
- Ability to think beyond individual features and improve patterns and systems across a product
- Comfort with technical tools like Git and VS Code, and interest in working directly in React, HTML, CSS, JavaScript, or TypeScript
- Strong product and design judgment, with the ability to articulate why something is good, what could be better, and when the work is ready to ship
What the job involves
- Baseten is looking for a Product Designer to help shape the next generation of our platform. You'll join a small design team with a lot of ownership and a high bar for craft, working across the entire Baseten product to solve hard problems for technical users
- This role covers the full arc of the work: early exploration through production. You'll establish patterns that show up across the product, evolve our design system, and raise the quality bar as we scale
- Lead product design end to end, including research, product definition, prototypes, design reviews, specs, and final implementation
- Work directly with engineering and product to frame problems, explore solutions, and ship quickly
- Collaborate with customers to understand their workflows, validate ideas, and test prototypes
- Push the visual and interaction quality of the Baseten product across surfaces
- Create interactions and details that make complex technical workflows feel clear, fast, and polished
- Evolve our design system and establish patterns that scale across a growing product
- Look across the product for opportunities to improve consistency, usability, and overall quality
- Get into the code with engineers to polish UI and make sure the shipped experience matches the design
- Help shape how the design team works and raise the bar for product quality across the company
Our take
As with its mathematical namesake, Baseten focuses on simplifying the complex. The San Francisco startup focuses on simplifying the integration of artificial intelligence into businesses. The tools that Baseten build demolish the need for businesses to hire specialised engineers, utilising the huge strides in artificial intelligence that we’ve seen in the last few years, all without adding workload to businesses.
With serious funding behind it, Baseten has grown its team by three times year-over-year over the last five years. Specifically, it's hired across engineering and marketing, gaining talent from companies such as GitHub, Google, Uber, Amazon, and Palantir. Part of Baseten's focus is on helping companies implement the tools that they have at their disposal, a long-overlooked aspect of machine learning that many businesses have been eager to champion, but are uncertain about how to actually use.
Simplifying the complex world of artificial intelligence for business is no mean feat, but with hundreds of millions in funding behind it and a $5 billion valuation reported in 2026, the company is well on its way to market domination. What's more, the three founders, who met whilst working as engineers at Gumroad, have a lot of experience in navigating this gap in the market.
