About Disrupt.com Disrupt.com is not just a venture builder-we are the AI-native company factory. Our mission is to launch 100+ ventures with algorithmic speed, where design is the frontline weapon, not a downstream service. We’re building the Disrupt Design System (DDS): a centralized, AI-powered design engine that turns bold ideas into scalable, differentiated ventures in days, not months.

The Role We’re looking for a Head of Design (UX/UI) who can architect, lead, and evolve the way design operates across Disrupt’s ecosystem of ventures. This is not a traditional design director role-it’s a venture-native, AI-first leadership position where design equals strategy, execution, and unfair advantage.

As Head of Design, you will:

● Build and scale the Disrupt Design System-a library of reusable UI/UX patterns, brand kits, and agent-powered templates that every new startup can launch with.

● Lead UX/UI excellence across ventures, ensuring that every product, landing page, and funnel is high-performing, conversion-optimized, and distinctively branded.

● Shape the new frontier of design: working with AI agents, automation, and reusable components to deliver 70% faster without sacrificing creativity or distinctiveness.

● Partner with product, GTM, and founder teams to ensure design is strategy-not decoration.

Key Responsibilities

1. Design Strategy & Intelligence (HQ)

● Own and evolve the Disrupt Design System (DDS): UI kits, brand systems, UX flows, AI prompt templates, and component libraries.

● Codify design standards and frameworks that balance speed, scale, and creative differentiation across 100+ ventures.

● Drive design as a strategic function embedded in product and GTM, not a downstream service.

2. Venture UX/UI Leadership

● Guide embedded design squads across top ventures, providing direction on UX architecture, feature UI, onboarding flows, and CRO-driven product design.

● Ensure every venture has a high-performing, conversion-oriented product experience from MVP to growth stage.

● Balance custom venture identity with DDS-driven scalability.

3. Creative Execution & Growth Design

● Oversee design for launch assets: websites, landing pages, signup flows, and GTM creative.

●Drive CRO experimentation and growth design loops, making data-informed design decisions to increase LTV/CAC performance.

● Collaborate with the Creative Studio for campaign visuals, ensuring seamless integration between product design and marketing storytelling.

4. AI-Native Design Ops

● Build workflows where AI + agents handle 70% of repetitive design work, while designers focus on system-building, curation, and innovation.

● Oversee Figma libraries, permissions, Notion-based intake boards, and automation tools that ensure 48h launch-readiness for new ventures.

● Develop QA systems (AI-assisted) to check design against DDS standards and performance data.

5. Leadership & Culture

● Lead and mentor a distributed team of designers (generalists, UX/UI specialists, motion designers, system builders).

● Create a feedback-driven design culture with monthly councils, retrospectives, and continuous iteration.

● Be a thought leader internally and externally, representing Disrupt’s design philosophy at events, in media, and with partners.

What We’re Looking For Must-Have Experience

● 8+ years in UX/UI design leadership, ideally across startups, agencies, or venture studios.

● Proven ability to design systems at scale (Figma libraries, component frameworks, design ops).

● Deep experience in UX architecture, product flows, CRO, and landing page design.

● Comfort working in fast-paced, multi-venture environments with overlapping timelines.

● Strong grasp of AI design tools (MidJourney, Framer, Runway, Galileo, etc.) and how to integrate them into workflows.

● Thinks in systems, templates, and repeatability-not one-off projects.

● Believes design is strategy, not service.

● Obsessed with speed-to-impact and measurable outcomes (conversion rates, engagement, LTV/CAC).

● Comfortable leading hybrid squads (product + GTM + design) and working cross-functionally.

● Taste level that blends Apple’s design rigor with Uncommon Studio’s creative boldness.

Why Join Us?

● Architect the most powerful venture design system in history.

● Lead design across 100+ startups in AI, Web3, SaaS, wellness, and beyond.

● Work in an AI-native environment where design tools and agents amplify your impact.

● Be part of a visionary venture studio where design is treated as the frontline weapon, not a side function.

If you’re ready to weaponize design at the scale of 100+ ventures and shape the future of venture design systems, we want to hear from you.
