About JurneeGo
JurneeGo is building a child-safe AI learning product. We believe AI can be one of the most powerful
learning tools ever made for kids — but only if it is built with care, with strong safety as a default, and by
people who genuinely sweat the product details. We are early, well-supported, and moving fast.

The role
We are looking for a Product Designer who can own the entire design surface of JurneeGo — the brand,
the UX, the visual identity, the marketing site, the in-product experience, and everything kids and parents
see, touch, or feel. This is not an executor role. You are the one calling shape, color, motion, tone, and
flow, end to end. You also sit close to engineering and QA: design that does not ship at the right quality bar
is design that did not happen.
What we mean by ownership. No design committee, no five-person review chain, no "the
agency will do brand later." You are the agency. You set the visual language, defend it, evolve it,
and apply it everywhere — from the logo to a 12-pixel icon inside the app. If a screen feels off,
that is your problem to fix. If the brand feels generic, that is your problem to fix. We will trust you
with the surface area and expect you to use AI tools to move at the speed a small team needs.

Areas of ownership
Area of ownership

What it means

Brand identity

Own the JurneeGo brand end to end — logo, type system, color,
illustration style, motion language, voice and tone. Build a brand that is
unmistakably ours, that parents trust on first glance, and that kids find
friendly without feeling babyish. Maintain a living brand guideline that
everyone on the team can use.

Area of ownership

What it means

Product UX

Design the entire in-product experience — onboarding, learner flows,
parent and teacher views, settings, edge cases, error states, empty
states. Sweat the details: spacing, hierarchy, copy, microinteractions.
Validate flows with real users (kids and parents) when possible and
iterate based on what you observe, not what you assumed.

Visual quality

Be the person who refuses to ship something that looks wrong. Run the
visual bar across web, mobile, and any other surface we add. Build and
maintain a component library in Figma that engineering implements
faithfully.

Marketing & surface design

Design the marketing site, social assets, app store listings, parent emails,
and any other touchpoint between JurneeGo and the outside world. Every
surface is a chance to build (or break) trust.

Embedded in QA

Join the QA loop alongside our QA Lead. Review builds during the dev
cycle the way QA reviews features — but with a designer's eye. Catch
visual regressions, broken spacing, off-brand copy, and UX bugs before
they reach release. File design QA issues with the same rigor as a
functional bug report.

AI-driven design workflow

Use AI tools as a core part of how you work — generating concepts,
exploring directions, drafting illustrations, iterating on copy, producing
assets at scale. We are not testing whether you can hand-draft from a
blank canvas; we are testing whether you can direct AI to produce
on-brand, on-quality output and have the taste to know when it is right.

What you will do day to day
•
•
•
•
•
•
•

Drive new features from problem to high-fidelity design — discovery, sketches, prototypes, final
specs.
Maintain and evolve the brand and the design system as the product grows.
Sit in on engineering standups and pair with engineers while features are being built, not after.
Walk through builds with the QA Lead before release; flag visual and UX issues with the same rigor
as functional bugs.
Use AI tooling fluently — for visual exploration, illustration, copy, and asset production — and know
when to override what it produces.
Talk to users when it helps. Watch a kid use what you designed. Adjust accordingly.
Push back on product or engineering decisions that compromise the experience. Be the user's voice
in the room.

What we are looking for
Must-haves

•
•
•
•

A portfolio that demonstrates real ownership — brand work, product work, or ideally both. We
want to see things you took from blank page to shipped.
Strong visual taste. You can look at a screen and know what is wrong, even if you cannot articulate
it for thirty seconds. Then you can articulate it.
End-to-end UX skill. Information architecture, flows, interaction details, microcopy, edge cases —
not just pretty static frames.
Fluency with AI design and content tools as part of your normal workflow. You can talk concretely
about prompts that worked, output you rejected, and how you keep AI outputs on-brand.

•
•

Comfort embedded with engineering and QA. You can read a build, file a clear design bug, and
pair with an engineer to fix it.
Strong written communication and self-direction. Fully remote means your Figma files, your
annotations, and your Loom videos do most of the talking.

Nice-to-haves

•
•
•
•
•

Experience designing for kids, families, or any consumer product with a high care-bar.
Motion and prototyping skills (Rive, Lottie, After Effects, or strong Figma prototyping).
Light front-end fluency — you can read HTML/CSS, tweak Tailwind, or open a pull request to fix a
margin without waiting on engineering.
Illustration or visual art background, or a clear visual signature in your work.
Experience building and maintaining a real design system across multiple platforms.

What we are not screening for

•
•
•

A specific number of years of experience.
A FAANG or agency pedigree. Most of the best designers we know have neither.
A massive case-study deck. We would rather see three projects in real depth than fifteen at thumbnail
level.

Why this role is worth your time
•
•
•
•
•

Full brand ownership from day one. No legacy guidelines to fight, no design committee. You shape
what JurneeGo looks like for years.
Real impact on kids. Education products that work change lives. The look, feel, and tone are part of
why they work — or do not.
AI-native by default. You will work with cutting-edge tools and have the freedom to bring in whatever
helps you ship faster without losing quality.
A real seat at the table. Embedded with engineering, embedded with QA, in the room with the
founder. Your voice on the product is heard, not filtered.
Fully remote, async-friendly. We hire adults who manage their own time.

Hiring process
•
•
•
•
•
•

Intro call (30 min) — we get to know each other and you ask us anything.
Portfolio walkthrough (45–60 min) — pick two or three projects and walk us through your process,
the constraints, what you cut, and what you would do differently now.
Design exercise (~6–8 hrs, paid) — a small brand + UX brief specific to JurneeGo. We are looking
at how you frame the problem, your visual direction, and how you used AI tools as part of the work.
Working session (60–90 min) — walk us through the exercise, discuss your decisions, and pair with
engineering on a small handoff scenario.
Founder conversation — talk about the company, the next 12 months, and whether the fit is mutual.
Offer.

How to apply
Send a short email to aiden@jurneego.com with: a one-paragraph intro telling us why this role, a link to
your portfolio (with two or three pieces you'd like us to pay attention to), and a brief note on how you
currently use AI tools in your design workflow. A CV is welcome but not required if your portfolio speaks for
itself.
We read every application. We reply to every application.
