About the role

You will design the AI assistants and generative features our clients put in front of their customers and teams.

The hard part is honesty: what the assistant can do, where an answer came from, how uncertainty shows and how a person takes over. You will prototype on the real model and write evaluation sets with engineers, based on what users need.

What you will do

  1. Design conversational, copilot and generative interfaces
  2. Prototype with real models, not static mockups
  3. Define how uncertainty, sources and hand-offs to a person appear to users
  4. Build evaluation sets with engineers, based on user needs
  5. Run usability tests on AI features, including their failure paths
