We’re looking for a Staff Product Designer to take joint ownership of our member-facing experience and help shape the future of AI-native design at Maven. This isn’t a role about executing a defined roadmap. It’s about identifying the right problems, making strategic calls under ambiguity, and setting a standard that raises the bar for the team around you.

You’ll bring deep AI fluency and use it to move faster, explore more broadly, and build more intelligently, while also mentoring others on how to work that way.

As a Staff Product Designer at Maven, you will: 

Own end-to-end member experiences across complex, cross-functional initiatives, from early concept through delivery, making strategic decisions about scope, sequencing, and tradeoffs.

Define how AI should behave in high-stakes women’s and family health contexts: how it communicates uncertainty, when it defers to human care, and how it builds trust with members navigating emotionally charged decisions.

Build functional, high-fidelity prototypes using AI-assisted coding tools (Cursor, Claude Code, or similar), and push others to move beyond static mockups.

Develop scalable AI-powered patterns, confidence indicators, human-AI handoffs, and progressive disclosure that become the standard across Maven’s design system.

Partner with Engineering, Product, Clinical, and Data at a strategic level: shaping model outputs into intuitive interfaces, influencing how problems are framed, and driving alignment across teams.

Mentor designers and non-design partners, fostering independence and raising the collective bar for solving complex problems.

Identify and resolve cross-functional tensions, bridging gaps between design, clinical, and product perspectives.

What you’ll bring

AI fluency: You use AI tools daily (Claude, Figma AI, Cursor, or similar) with strong prompting and synthesis skills. You’re also helping others develop that muscle.

Vibe coding: You can turn ideas into working prototypes using AI-assisted coding tools, and you’re comfortable pushing the boundaries of what that looks like in a healthcare context.

Technical depth: You’ve shipped code to production and can have an informed conversation about backend architecture, model behavior, and system constraints.

Strategic craft: A portfolio that shows not just design quality but also evidence of strategic ownership: defining success metrics, navigating ambiguity, and influencing direction.

Cross-functional leadership: You’ve driven complex projects across multiple teams and know how to create momentum without direct authority.

Mobile and web: Experience designing for mobile applications and responsive web.

Systems thinking: Ability to think beyond a flow and communicate a holistic system that can scale for any program.

Appetite for complexity: Energized by ambiguity and solving complex problems, and comfortable making calls when the path isn’t clear.

Mindset

Deeply empathetic toward members navigating family building journeys like fertility and pregnancy, spaces that can be emotionally intense, medically complex, and often uncertain.

AI-native: you think in terms of what AI makes newly possible, and you bring others along in that thinking.

Invested in the people around you. You want the team to be better because you’re on it, and to make the team better by mentoring.

Nice to have

Experience in healthcare, health tech, or regulated domains.

Background working with ML and AI teams on model-driven products.

Experience contributing to or building a consumer-grade design system, including Figma variables and advanced component architecture.

The base salary range for this role is $200,000 – $220,000 per year. You will also be entitled to receive equity and benefits. Individual pay decisions are based on a number of factors, including qualifications for the role, experience level, and skillset.

At Maven we believe that a diverse set of backgrounds and experiences enrich our teams and allow us to achieve above and beyond our goals. If you do not have experience in all of the areas detailed above, we hope that you will share your unique background with us in your application and how it can be additive to our teams.
