FigmaProduct 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.

- Shape Product Direction Through Deep Collaboration
- Work closely with engineers, product managers, and other designers in an agile environment to design accessible, performant, and elegant interfaces that balance user needs with technical and delivery constraints.
- Create and Refine Design Deliverables
- Produce user flows, interaction models, prototypes, interface comps, visual specs, and supporting documentation across multiple enterprise products—using AI tools to streamline research synthesis, generate prototypes, and explore ideas more rapidly.
- Own and Advocate for the User Experience
- Take full ownership of the UX for your product areas and proactively advocate for users, ensuring their needs lead design decisions while aligning with the realities of our technology stack and component libraries.
- Apply Modern UX & UI and AI-Assisted Expertise
- Use up-to-date knowledge of design systems, interaction patterns, accessibility standards, responsive layouts, and front-end capabilities to elevate implementation quality and usability—along with AI-powered design and research tools—to elevate implementation quality, speed, and usability.
- Bring Clarity to Ambiguity
- Independently investigate complex problems, surface assumptions, validate solutions with stakeholders, and turn abstract challenges into actionable design direction. Use AI tools to accelerate insight-gathering and pattern detection.
- Influence Product Strategy
- Frame user problems, communicate trade-offs, and present design recommendations that shape product priorities and near-term roadmaps.
- Experiment with AI-Native Workflows
- Actively explore and experiment with AI-native workflows — including using Claude Code to generate and hand off production-ready code directly from design artifacts.
- Build and Scale AI Capabilities Across the Function
- Build reusable AI skills and plugins that scale best practices across the design function, contributing to a shared toolkit that reduces manual effort and accelerates delivery.
- Partner Closely With Engineering
