## About the role

This role is for someone who helps shape what’s worth building, designs it by building, and owns the result in production. You explore and prototype like a designer, then carry the strong ideas all the way to a shipped front-end, the exploration and the building as one craft rather than two stages with a handoff between them. Found on 1752vc Careers, the job board for startup and VC roles.

## What they're looking for

- Carry features from design through to production front-end. The design decision and the code are the same job, in the same hands, so the work keeps its fidelity instead of being lost in a handoff
- Help frame what’s worth building. Talk to underwriters and members, test whether the problem is real, and shape scope alongside your squad rather than waiting for a finished spec
- Use AI tools across the full loop (research, design, prototype, build, test, iterate) as the default way you work, not an occasional accelerator
- Own the invisible craft that separates polished from pretty: performance, accessibility, cross-device behavior, and the responsiveness that makes an interface feel fast
- Build with and contribute to our AI-native design system: the patterns, rules, and decision logic that let people, AI, and engineers create coherent, on-brand experiences from a shared foundation
- Ship early, learn from users and production, and iterate continuously, applying real judgment to AI-generated output rather than trusting it
