Staff Product Designer(AI Builder)

What the Role Is The modern tech stack has collapsed the distance between designing an experience and shipping it. We're hiring Staff Product Designers to build the next generation of Babylist by leveraging this reality.

The Staff Product Designer is the durable design owner of a major Babylist experience - the person the rest of the company looks to when a hard question about that experience has to get answered.

Equal parts skilled designer, hands-on researcher, and AI-enabled builder, you own how things feel, think broadly about user flows across the full Babylist experience, and hold the vision for whether something is intuitive, beautiful, and emotionally right for the user.

You work alongside product managers, engineers, and data partners, but you are the one driving the experience layer and making sure every interaction meets both the functional and emotional needs of our users to drive impactful outcomes for the business.

You flex beyond the basics by running research, standing up working prototypes (in hours not days), and contributing to production-quality front-end code ensuring polish is never a trade-off.

You help Babylist make the transition into AI-native product development by setting the standard others adopt for what an AI-native designer does every day — in your own work and in the codified workflows you set for the team around you.

In this role, you shape how parents discover products, build their registry, receive gifts, and navigate early parenthood across web and native mobile. These are not casual interactions. Families are making decisions during one of the most meaningful and overwhelming transitions of their lives.

The experience has to be easy to use, easy to understand, and worthy of the trust they place in us.

Who You Are

Craft and experience obsessed . You care deeply about how things feel, not just how they function. You notice the details most people can't articulate but everyone responds to like transitions, motion, and accessibility
