Product Designer

GrowthX is India's most premium AI community for founders and professionals. 5,500+ members. 9% acceptance rate. 50+ events a month across 11 cities. Members from Sarvam AI, ElevenLabs, Meta, Lovable, Spotify, Samsung, and more.

We are not an ed-tech company. We are building an AI-native product used by the most ambitious professionals in India. The product is the community. The community is the product.

So what is this role?

Product and design. But the way we do design at GrowthX has already changed.

Our designers don't make mockups and hand them off to engineers. They have the full loop running on their machine: frontend, backend, the whole setup. They prompt, iterate, and build directly. They design animations, interactions, and pattern-breaking features in code, on their device. They push PRs. They only open Figma when they genuinely cannot recreate something through prompting and direct implementation.

This is the shape of the role. You are a product thinker who designs, and a designer who ships.

What AI-native means here

You are an early adopter of everything. You tried Blender before it was trendy. You were in Figma beta. You've tried every new design tool the week it launched. You have strong opinions about which tools are good and which are hype.

Now, AI has collapsed the distance between an idea and a working prototype. You already live in this reality. You prompt your way to a first draft, refine in code, and ship something that looks and feels like it was designed by a team of five. You use AI not as a shortcut, but as a creative partner: generating variations, testing layout ideas, building micro-interactions you wouldn't have tried manually.

What you'll do

• Own product design end to end. Talk to members, understand feedback, identify what needs to change, design it, build it, ship it.
• Work directly on the product: frontend implementation, animations, interactive features. Not just screens in Figma, but working code that goes live.
• Push PRs. Review visual output in staging. Iterate based on real usage, not assumptions.
• Design AI-first features. The product you're designing has AI at its center: matching, learning paths, event discovery, community intelligence. You'll design how AI surfaces to users, how it feels, how it earns trust.
• Build pattern-breaking experiences. GrowthX members are the most design-literate professionals in India. They notice when something is generic. Your job is to make them stop scrolling.
• Run lightweight product discovery. User interviews, feedback synthesis, usage analysis. You form a point of view, then you ship against it.
• Work directly with the founder and the AI & tech lead to define product direction. What we build next, how it looks, how it works.

What you bring

• Hyper-curiosity. You try things before anyone tells you to. You have 30 tabs open of things you're exploring. You've used tools most designers haven't heard of yet.
• Taste. You know the difference between clean and boring, between bold and messy. You have a portfolio that shows range and intentionality.
• AI-native workflow. You design by prompting, iterating, and building. You reach for AI before you reach for a blank canvas.
• Frontend capability. You can implement what you design. React, HTML/CSS, Tailwind, or whatever the stack demands. You're comfortable reading and writing code.
• Product instinct. You think about why something should exist before how it should look. You start with the user's problem, not the component library.
• Speed. You can go from “we should try this” to “here's a working version” in a day, not a week

What we don't care about

• Whether you call yourself a designer or a product person or a creative engineer. Labels don't matter. What you make matters
• .Years of experience. If your portfolio and your workflow show that you can do this, the number next to “years of experience” is irrelevant.
• A design degree. Self-taught, bootcamp, art school, CS degree. We don't care about the path. We care about the output.
