• Refine typography, color, layout, and hierarchy to enhance usability and aesthetics
• Work on interaction states, micro-interactions, and overall visual experience
• Review and guide design work to maintain a high bar of quality
• Iterate based on feedback, product needs, and user insights
• Stay updated with design trends, tools, and evolving visual practices

What we are looking for:

Product Designer, AM:PM

Compensation: 6–7 LPA

• You do not push pixels. You design products that feel inevitable. The kind where users do not notice the design because everything lands where it should.
• You do not show up with a moodboard. You show up with a flow that already solves the problem.
• You are not a “visual designer.
• You think hard about how Gen Z actually uses their phones.
• Why some apps stick. Why most do not. How a vertical video product can feel native without looking like every other vertical video product.
• You have built for Gen Z before. Not posters for a Gen Z brand. Product screens that real Gen Z users touched, used, skipped, returned to, or abandoned.

About AM:PM

AM:PM is a VC-backed news platform built for short-form video, reels, and fast threads, for Gen Z and millennials who want to stay informed without sitting through a panel of five people agreeing with each other for 40 minutes. We go deep without going slow. We understand internet culture because we live in it, not because we read a report about it.

Why this role matters

AM:PM is not building another news app. We are trying to change the form itself. The slash mechanic. The wraps. The newsroom. The discourse layer. These surfaces only work if the design pushes the product forward, not if it plays safe. You will decide what AM:PM looks like, feels like, and how users move through it.

What you will own

• Design the AM:PM app end-to-end across wraps, newsroom, and discourse
• Build the slash interaction for opinion and counter-opinion switching so it feels native, not gimmicky
• Create and maintain the AM:PM design system from the brand foundation up
• Use Figma, Claude, and any AI tool that helps you move faster without lowering the quality
• Run usability calls with real Gen Z users and use what you learn, not what you assume6. Work directly with the founding team and CTO to ship what you design
• Experiment fast, kill what does not work, and double down on what does

Who you are

• 1+ years of designing consumer mobile products that have shipped to real users
• You have worked on at least one Gen Z product end-to-end, not just one screen
• Your portfolio shows visual range, motion thinking, product logic, and more than one design language.
• You move at startup pace and do not need a perfect brief to begin
• Based in Mumbai or willing to relocate within commutable distance

This is a 0-to-1 journey. No senior designer above you. No safe template to copy. You are the design team. If that sounds like your kind of problem, drop your CV below or DM us.

Conduct user research through interviews, surveys, usability testing, and competitor analysis.

Understand student pain points across university search, counselling, applications, document submission, and admissions.

Create user personas, journey maps, user flows, information architecture, wireframes, and prototypes.

Design intuitive web and mobile experiences using tools such as Figma.

Conduct usability testing and iterate designs based on feedback and product data.

Work closely with Product Managers, UI Designers, Developers, and other stakeholders.

Maintain and contribute to a consistent design system.

Ensure designs are responsive, accessible, and technically feasible.

Use analytics and user feedback to identify opportunities to improve conversion and engagement.
