GC AI • San Mateo, CA

14h

About The Position

We're building the operating system for in-house legal. As the first Product Designer at GC AI, you'll own the end-to-end design of a platform that's evolving from AI copilot to full workflow orchestration and autonomous legal teams.

You'll tackle hard, unsolved AI design problems: intuitive experiences for multi-agent workflows, interfaces that surface insights from massive datasets, and the trust signals required to let lawyers confidently delegate to AI. You'll work directly with our founders, customers, and a small group of strong engineers to define and ship the visual and interaction language of the product.

Why This Role Matters

We've raised $60M at a $555M valuation because we've built something legal teams love to use (70+ NPS, which is unheard of in legal software). Now we need a designer who can help us extend that lead.

You'll own the intersection of craft and user insight. Design systems, interaction patterns, prototypes, and user research, these are yours. As the first designer, you will set the foundation for building the practice of product design at a hyper-growth Series B startup.

Requirements

• 5-10 years of experience in product design, with a portfolio demonstrating end-to-end ownership of complex, enterprise-grade products
• Mastery of Figma and experience building and scaling design systems
• Strong prototyping skills, comfort with tools like Framer, Principle, or code-based prototypes
• Excellent visual design sensibility and interaction design chops
• B2B / enterprise experience, ideally with workflow or productivity tools
• Ability to hold both big-picture vision and ground-level details
• Comfort with ambiguity and incomplete information

Nice To Haves

• Experience designing AI-native products or interfaces involving LLMs
• Early employee at a hyper-growth startup or building 0→1 products
• Experience at world-class enterprise design orgs (e.g., Figma, Linear, Notion, Ramp, Stripe)
• Familiarity with legal workflows or regulated industries

Responsibilities

• Own design end-to-end, from early concepts through pixel-perfect execution
• Build and maintain a scalable design system that accelerates engineering velocity
• Partner with PMs and engineers to shape product direction through rapid prototyping
• Conduct user research with in-house legal teams to deeply understand workflows, pain points, and mental models
• Define interaction patterns for novel AI experiences: chat, agents, document editing, search, and beyond.
• Create clarity from complexity, translating dense legal workflows into intuitive interfaces
• Set the foundation for the design organization, influencing team culture, processes, and long-term vision
