Founding Product Design

Overview

We're looking for a product designer with deep experience in consumer applications to help us deliver a world-class Willow experience.

Willow is a voice dictation app that lets you type anywhere on your computer using your voice. People already rely on Willow every day to write emails, respond in Slack, prompt AI, and move faster in their day-to-day work.

Our mission is to build the voice operating system, a way to control your computer entirely with your voice.

We're backed by the best, like Box Group, founders of Instacart and Hubspot, Y Combinator, and more.

The Opportunity

We’re at the very beginning of a shift in how people use technology.

The first major interface was the keyboard and mouse. The second was touch. The third is voice.

This is your chance to help build it.

You’ll be joining early with a lot of product to design and build. The impact is real. This is the kind of work that shapes how people use computers for decades to come. If we get this right, billions of people will use what we build every day.

The Role

We’re looking for a product designer to lead product visuals.

You’ll:

• Own end-to-end design of Willow across platforms (desktop, iOS, web)

• Design intuitive, beautiful, and useful interfaces for voice-first interactions

• Work directly with users to test ideas, get feedback, and refine experiences

• Partner with engineering to ship fast and iterate

• Define our design language, components, and guidelines

• Help shape the product, brand, and company from the earliest days

You’ll be setting the bar for design at Willow and helping define the future of a new kind of interface.

Your Background

We're looking for someone who:

• Has designed and shipped high-quality consumer products

• Thinks in systems, not just screens, and is strong with both UX and visual design

• Has experience creating 0→1 products

• Has an opinionated but collaborative design process

• Is comfortable working in fast-paced, early-stage environments

• Cares deeply about the user and the craft

How to Stand Out:

• Have worked on voice, AI, or real-time interactive products

• Have worked closely with early engineering teams or founded your own product

• Research our product and show us how to improve before we even talk and reach out to us proactively

You’re first and foremost a builder. You move quickly, think clearly, and are excited to shape something new.
