You're good. You know you're good. Your Dribbble has clean case studies, your Figma files are organized, your design system is tight.

And you're bored out of your mind.

Not because the work is easy. Because it doesn't matter. You redesign the settings page. Three stakeholders give conflicting feedback. You compromise on all of it. Ship something you'd never put in your portfolio. Wait for the next sprint.

You didn't get into design for this. You got into it because design isn't decoration. It's the product itself.

If that's still what you believe, keep reading.

The Problems We Haven't Solved Yet: We haven't figured everything out. That's the point. Here are real design challenges on our table right now, unsolved, waiting for someone good enough to crack them:

1. How do you design an AI learning experience that feels human? Our AI tutors adapt in real-time to how each learner thinks. But "adaptive" can easily feel robotic. How do you design an interaction where a machine is teaching but the learner feels understood? No one has solved this well at scale.
2. How do you make learning feel like a game without making it feel like a trick? Gamification in edtech is mostly badges and streaks. The real question: how do you design dopamine loops that make someone want to learn at 11 PM the way they want to scroll Instagram at 11 PM? Without dark patterns.
3. How do you build for a world of generative UI? When AI generates personalized content for every user, the UI can't be static. How do you design a system that's both coherent and infinitely variable? Figma components don't cover it. You'd be inventing the framework.
4. How do you create simulations where people learn by doing? Not watching videos. Not reading docs. Actually doing the work where mistakes are free and feedback is instant. How do you design the UX of "practice" at scale?
5. How do you design across modalities? WhatsApp bots, mobile apps, web platforms, AI-generated video. How do you create a design language that holds together across contexts this different, while feeling native to each?

If you read those five problems and felt your brain start firing, this role is for you.

The Honest Part: Our product today is not beautifully designed. Some of it is. A lot of it isn't.

That's exactly why we need you. Not in six months. Now.

We have 3 million+ learners across 64 countries. AI that genuinely works, personalization that's real (not a buzzword), and a product rated 4.8/5. What we don't have is a founding designer with the taste to make the experience match the ambition.

The gap between what our product does and how it feels is your canvas. It's enormous. And it's yours.

How You'd Actually Work Here:

Most JDs sell you a vision. Here's the reality.

• You'd talk to actual users. Not personas. Not filtered summaries. You'd call a learner in Pune who dropped off mid-course and find out why. Here, user research isn't a quarterly ritual. It's how you start every design decision.
• You'd see your impact. Fast. Ship something, it's in front of 3M+ users. You'll know within days whether it worked. Real data, real fast.
• Your bottleneck is you, not your team. Our devs read Figma files. The gap between what you design and what ships is small. The constraint is the quality of your thinking, not the capacity of the people around you.
• You'd have a voice in what gets built. You'd work directly with me and Gargi (co-founder) on what we build and why. Your perspective on the user experience shapes direction. Because a learning product where design doesn't drive direction doesn't work.
• Design is load-bearing here. A learning experience that feels clunky doesn't just look bad. It literally doesn't teach. Experience quality is the product.

The Specifics:

Role: Sr. Founding Product Designer (AI-First). Senior IC with high ownership & high influence. "Founding" means you'd shape the design culture, system, and standards for everything that follows. 

Experience: 4+ years in B2C product design. Edtech, gaming, or consumer apps where retention actually matters. A portfolio that shows design moving metrics, not just looking good.

You're the person if: • You can articulate a user problem before you draw a single frame • You're comfortable reading dashboards & making decisions from data, not just intuition • You write tight, clear design rationale that developers understand and trust • You thrive with ambiguity and ownership. Slow approvals frustrate you

Comp: Rs 18L-30L CTC + 0.01%-1.0% equity. The equity range is wide because we'll calibrate to what you bring. At our stage, this is real upside.

Location: Mumbai. In-office with WFH flexibility. Full-time.

The team: Google's Top 20 Startups to Watch. Google AI First Accelerator '24. Backed by funds of Naval Ravikant, Reid Hoffman, and founders/CXOs from Udemy, Flipkart, Jupiter, PayU, Edmodo & Inflection AI. Featured on CNBC-TV18. 11-50 people building something that changes how people learn, permanently.

About LikeMinds: Platform for creators to build communities and monetize them: Social Networks have become more media platforms than “social” platforms. They are not designed to make real human connections. Demand for more intimate online places is higher than ever. Communities are in huge demand! Also, these “Ad-driven” platforms only reward top creators. Most creators are left out - no matter how engaged their audience is. They have to constantly beat algorithms to reach out to their own audience. Over 50 million people around the world consider themselves creators. 97% of them aren’t getting paid. As a result creators are flocking to platforms like Slack, Discord, WhatsApp & Telegram - none of which were built either for community engagement or creator monetization. Community creators have to go through the pain of managing multiple third party tools to engage and monetize their community. LikeMinds helps creators to convert their audience into a branded private community. They can monetize it by selling digital products like memberships, group chats, events, consultations and courses. As a platform purpose-built for community entrepreneurs, LikeMinds has inbuilt tools for member acquisition, onboarding, retention, moderation, monetization, and referrals. Our platform enables creators to drive high engagement and belonging via chat rooms, events, polls, member directory, and rewards. These features are in addition to powerful business tools like community website, subscription management, event reminders, analytics dashboard, cohort creation, in-app banners, data export, and much more. Custom integrations are also available for creators with existing assets.In the last few months, we have helped 100+ creators monetize their communities. These include entertainers, fitness & wellness trainers, professional domain experts, language instructors, life coaches, financial experts, micro-entrepreneurship coaches, and exam prep coaches. We are a team of entrepreneurs, techies and community builders with credible backgrounds supported by 2 large VCs.
