Senior Product Designer - Workspace & Collaboration

What You'll Do

• Design the place a creator's work lives: where they lay it out, where they find it again, and how a team works on it together.
• Make OpenArt work for a team, not just a person: shared workspaces, roles and permissions, review and approval, and brand assets everyone pulls from, with feedback landing next to the thing it's about.
• Make running a team feel like part of the product: who's in, what they can access, what was made and how. Clear enough that a creative director never has to ask IT.
• Give every asset a home: organization, tagging, versions, and the context that usually gets lost, so one approved visual becomes a whole campaign of consistent work.
• Think in systems, not one-off fixes: when you design a share sheet, a permission, or a tag, it should work the same everywhere, so we solve a whole group of problems at once instead of patching them one by one.
• Design for people and for the agent: the agent opens the same panels, fills the same forms, and places things on the same canvas people do. If the interface is clear and consistent for a person, it works for the agent too.

What We're Looking for

Hard Skills

• Systems thinking - you've changed how a product is structured so one pattern fixes many problems, and can explain what that made possible.
• Workspaces, editors, or spatial tools - you've designed something people organize, return to, and build on.
• Collaboration and permissions - you've shipped sharing, roles, or review, and know where multiplayer gets hard.
• Designing for the user and the buyer - you've served the person who makes the work and the person who manages or pays for it, without making either feel like an afterthought.
• Strong UI craft - polished, considered, in service of clarity.
• AI in your daily practice - prototyping in code, Claude, Figma Make or similar, with real opinions on where it helps.

Soft Skills

• Product mindset - you care how the whole thing holds together, not just your screens.
• Patience for systems - you hold a structure steady while everything around it moves fast.
• Structure from ambiguity - you're the one who makes the fuzzy thing clear.
• Open and collaborative - you thrive on feedback and co-creation.
• Strong communicator - you can explain why a structure is right, not just that it looks right.

Example Ideal Candidate

• Has built the place where people keep their work (a workspace, a canvas, a library) and made it feel like theirs.
• Has shipped sharing, roles, or review in a collaborative creative tool, and can say what they got wrong the first time.
• Gets asked for one screen and comes back with a pattern that covers the next ten.
• Excited about creators and storytelling, and about making a team's work feel as alive as one person's.

Location & Work Setup

• Bay Area (full-time, on-site or hybrid)
• High collaboration with founders and global engineering team.
• Visa sponsorship available.

Why Openart?

In most AI tools, your work is a scroll history, and a team's work is five scroll histories. We think the tool that finally gives AI-made work a home, for one person or a whole team, is the one professionals will build their business on, and that's a design problem before it's anything else. If you've ever wanted to design the place where people keep the work they're proud of, and do it together, this is a good place to do it.
