About Us

Born West is a founder-led creative technology and design agency building next-generation digital products, experiences, and brands. We partner with some of the most ambitious companies in the world and we’re just getting started.

Role Overview

We’re looking for a mid-level Product Designer with excellent systems thinking, strong product experience, and exceptional visual design skills.

You understand how digital products work as a whole, not just how individual screens look. You've worked on products with interconnected features, complex functionality, and evolving requirements. You can think through how different parts fit together, anticipate edge cases, and create interfaces that feel cohesive, intuitive, and well considered.

You’re comfortable moving between the big picture and the details. One day, you might be figuring out how a complex feature fits into an existing product. The next, you’re refining interactions, building components, or polishing an interface until everything feels right.

We value independent thinkers who ask good questions, take ownership of their work, and know how to turn ambiguity into thoughtful solutions. We welcome AI tools to speed up workflows and exploration, but expect you to bring your own thinking, taste, and creative judgment to the work.

Visual craft matters just as much as product thinking. We're looking for someone who can make complex products feel simple and create interfaces that are both functional and beautiful.

Key Responsibilities

• Design polished, thoughtful interfaces for complex digital products across web and mobile.
• Think systematically about how features, components, and interactions work together across an entire product.
• Translate product requirements into clear, cohesive, and scalable design solutions.
• Create and evolve design systems, reusable components, and consistent visual patterns.
• Take designs from early concepts through high-fidelity execution, prototyping, and developer handoff.
• Collaborate with clients, product managers, developers, and other designers to deliver high-quality work.

Qualifications

• Proven experience building digital products, beyond standalone websites, landing pages, or isolated features.
• Excellent systems thinking and the ability to navigate complex products with interconnected functionality.
• Exceptional visual/UI design skills, with strong typography, layout, composition, and attention to detail.
• Advanced Figma skills, including components, variants, auto layout, and prototyping.
• Ability to work independently, solve problems, and make thoughtful design decisions.
• A portfolio demonstrating complex product work, strong visual execution, and your contribution to the final result.

Nice to Haves

• End-to-end product design experience, from concept to launch and iteration.
• Experience with both 0-to-1 products and established, evolving platforms.
• Experience working in an agency or startup environment.
• Motion design, advanced prototyping, or Framer/Webflow skills.
• Familiarity with HTML/CSS and front-end constraints.

What We'd Like to See in Your Portfolio

We're interested in real products, not just beautiful screens.

Show us work that demonstrates how you approach complex products, connect features into cohesive systems, and deliver polished interfaces.

We'd love to understand what you worked on, the decisions you made, and how your contributions shaped the final product.
