Description
About Us:
AltaML is a leading North American applied AI company with extensive experience in building and operationalizing AI software solutions.
We are a company like no other – we believe in making small bets, failing fast, and being better together. We are looking for creative problem-solvers who obsess about the customer to find wins across different industries.
We don’t hire for fit; we hire to add. We are looking for people who play our core values of being: Agile, Gritty Humble, and Happy. If you’re passionate about AI/ML, thrive in a dynamic environment, and want to work with a diverse team of wickedly smart people, we want to hear from you!
The Role
You will be the designer on a product team, working directly with a product manager and a tech lead. Not a design resource that work gets sent to. In the room, from the first discovery conversation to the shipped product and every iteration after.Your job on that team is to own usability risk. The PM worries about whether it is valuable and viable, the tech lead worries about whether we can build it, and you worry about whether users can actually use it, and whether they will want to. On enterprise AI products that risk is real and it is where most of these products fail. Users do not trust what they cannot understand, and they quietly stop using what slows them down.
The way you attack that risk is discovery and prototypes. You will sit in discovery sessions with clients and their end users. You will turn what you hear into prototypes fast, put them in front of users, watch what happens, and iterate. Prototypes are how we answer questions here, not documents about prototypes. The bar is not software that works. The bar is software that customers love to use.
You will design within our shared design system and standards, and you will make them better. When you find a pattern that works, it goes back into the system so every team benefits. When a standard fails a user, you flag it and help fix the standard, so the same problem does not get rebuilt ten more times. We define design standards up front, precise enough that our AI coding tools build things right the first time, and your findings from real users are what keep those standards honest.
