Location: London (in-office)
Seniority: Senior
The Role
Searchable is building the platform that helps brands understand and improve how they appear across AI-powered search: ChatGPT, Perplexity, Claude, Gemini, and beyond. It's a new category, and the product has to make that clear instantly.
This is a research-led, systems-driven design role. You'll own the full journey from user research and problem framing through to high-fidelity, production-ready prototypes that a design or front-end engineer can build from directly. There's no handoff ambiguity. The prototype is the spec.
You’ll work in-office in London, embedded directly with the product and engineering team, and report to the founding team.
What You'll Own
1. User Research & Problem Definition
* Run structured and unstructured research: interviews, usability tests, behavioural analysis, and session data
* Translate findings into clear problem definitions and design briefs
* Build a research practice that compounds: documented insights, reusable frameworks, and a living understanding of our users
* Work closely with GTM and product to ensure research is connected to commercial reality, not just UX theory
2. Product Design (End-to-End)
* Own the design of core product surfaces: dashboards, onboarding, reporting, workflow tools, and alerts
* Design for clarity and speed: our users are time-poor marketers and SEO leads who need to act on data fast
* Maintain and evolve the design system, ensuring visual and interaction consistency across the product
* Contribute to product strategy: you should have opinions on what to build, not just how to present it
3. AI-Native Prototyping
* Use Figma, Claude Code, and Lovable to take designs from concept to interactive, production-quality prototype
* Prototypes should be detailed enough that a design engineer can build directly from them: no translation layer, no ambiguity
* Use AI tooling to move faster: generate variants, test edge cases, iterate in hours not days
* Stay current with what's possible; the expectation is that your workflow evolves as the tools do
4. Design-to-Engineering Handoff
* Own the handoff process end-to-end: annotated components, documented interactions, responsive behaviour, and edge states
* Work directly with front-end and design engineers to QA implementation against design intent
* Flag and resolve discrepancies before they reach users
Day-to-Day
* Plan and run user research sessions and synthesise findings into actionable outputs
* Design and iterate on product features across web and dashboard surfaces
* Build interactive prototypes in Figma and with Claude Code / Lovable
* Maintain the design system and component library
* Present work clearly and take direct feedback well
* Partner with engineering on implementation quality
What We're Looking For
* 5 to 8 years of product and UX design experience, ideally in B2B SaaS or data-heavy products
* Strong research capability: you can design and run studies, not just interpret someone else's findings
* Equally strong visual and interaction design skills: research-led does not mean low-fidelity
* Genuinely AI-native: you use Claude Code, Lovable, and similar tools in your actual workflow, not as a talking point
* Figma fluency, including component architecture and design systems
* Comfortable working directly with engineers and reading front-end code well enough to have a real conversation about implementation
* Clear communicator: written, verbal, and visual
* Based in London and comfortable working in-office
Strong Signals
* Experience designing for dashboards, analytics, or data visualisation products
* Exposure to SEO, content marketing, or AI search tools
* Experience building or maintaining a design system from scratch
* Portfolio that shows research artefacts alongside final UI: not just pretty screens
* Evidence of working in early-stage environments where process didn't exist before you built it
