## About the role

Modern AI lets software reason in real time. That overturns decades of UX assumptions. A chatbot bolted onto old workflows won’t cut it; we need interfaces where humans and agents co-create work, hand tasks back and forth, and build trust in real time. You will lead Basis into that design unknown: design both the screens accountants see and the invisible UI “toolbox” agents draw from when they assemble those screens.

## What they're looking for

- Experience: 4–8 years designing complex SaaS or AI tooling, with at least one 0→1 launch (extraordinary talent with fewer years considered)
- First-principles reasoner: You break problems to fundamentals and rebuild without legacy bias
- Agent-native builder: You already prototype with LLMs and can explain why they change UX
- Use AI a lot : You should be using AI for your own work a ton. To learn, brainstorm, write, research etc
- In-person NYC: You want the energy of five days a week on whiteboards with engineers, accountants, and founders
- Learning velocity: New domains (hello, accounting!) and new tech click for you in weeks, not months
