About the role

  • Designers are embedded in autonomous pods and need to keep shipping fast.

Responsibilities

  • Build the team. Hire, grow, and retain a high-performing design team, identifying people who will thrive and raise the bar at Amplitude. Develop them through direct, specific feedback. Help someone who's stuck get moving again.
  • Set direction. Drive the design strategy for Amplitude's product suite: Core Amplitude, Statsig, and Wave (a proactive agent that helps teams build self-improving products). Help define how agents and humans work together in the same workflows.
  • Champion craft. Strong visual design builds trust, clarity, and delight in the era of AI. Lead by example, elevating the quality of the product through exceptional design execution.

  • You've shipped AI-native experiences and use AI tools in your own practice today (we'll ask what you built and what you learned).
