Visual Designer, Product

You'll own the visual quality of Luma's product: the typography, color, iconography, spacing, and components that make it feel exceptional, and the design system that lets the whole team hold that bar as the product grows. This is a craft-first role with a strong point of view. It isn't a redesign-everything role. You're elevating what exists and building the scalable foundation underneath it, including a living design system engineers and designers actually reference when they build. It fits someone who thinks in systems and can defend why a decision is right, not just how it looks. If you prefer one-off screens over a coherent system, this won't suit. What You'll Own Audit the full product with fresh eyes and drive meaningful improvements across typography, color, iconography, spacing, and component design. Build and own the design system in Figma — tokens, components, and usage guidelines the whole team builds from. Bring the design system to life as a live, interactive reference using AI coding tools like Cursor or Claude Code. Set and hold the visual bar, establishing what good looks like and advocating for it across the product. Shape how new features look before they're built, bringing a visual perspective to early concepting. First 90 Days One way the first 90 could unfold. Days 1–30 — Immerse & Diagnose: Audit the product's visual quality and map where it falls short and what the design system needs. Days 30–60 — Ship & Validate: Elevate a high-visibility surface and stand up the first version of the systematized visual language in Figma. Days 60–90 — Scale & Systemize: Build the live, interactive design system the team uses when shipping new features. What You Bring 7+ years in visual and UI design, with a portfolio showing exceptional craft across typography, color, layout, and interaction. Systems thinking: you turn a strong visual language into a scalable, consistent foundation. Experience building or significantly contributing to a design system a team actually uses. You build with AI coding tools to produce real outputs, not just mockups, and iterate until they meet your bar. A clear point of view you can articulate, and a portfolio of work that shipped and improved product quality. A portfolio showing design-systems experience is required. Nice to Have Experience building a token system from scratch and connecting it to a live codebase. Experience building a live component library or design system with AI coding tools. Experience designing for desktop applications (our product is desktop-first). About Luma: Luma's mission is to build unified general intelligence that can generate, understand, and operate in the physical world. We believe multimodality is critical for intelligence — the next step beyond language models comes from vision. Luma is an equal opportunity employer.
