AI Product Designer

The Opportunity

Bridgeway is Adobe's agentic marketing partner for small businesses and solopreneurs - photographers, estheticians, fitness coaches, bakers, contractors - the people running a business with no marketing team behind them. We're building software that acts like a great marketing hire, not another tool to learn.

We're looking for a design engineer who lives at the intersection of design and code. Bridgeway runs like a startup - a small, talent-dense team bringing startup speed inside Adobe, with Adobe's platform and reach behind it. If you want early-stage pace and ownership plus enterprise-scale resources, this is that combination.

Work directly with product and engineering to prototype, build, and ship the experiences that make Bridgeway feel like a partner. Our engineers already build with AI-native workflows, and we want design at that same clock speed - motivated by generating options, not just refining one, so “which direction” becomes today's conversation instead of next week's.

What great looks like

We look for builders who have shipped - people who've launched something real and are proud of the outcome - more than a specific title or pedigree.

Everyone here operates across three lenses: product, design, and engineering. That means real design sense, production-quality code, and product-manager-level reasoning, without outsourcing any of it. What sets people apart isn't which of the three they can do - it's which one they lead with.

Taste and judgment sharp enough to orchestrate AI-assisted prototyping at high speed while holding a bar most teams miss even working slowly.

Taste

Identify what good looks like before it exists - faced with dozens of AI-generated directions, can immediately spot the two worth refining.

Judgment

Know what to build, not just how. Understand our user - a solo business owner with 90 seconds to spare - well enough to make the call without a committee.

Speed of orchestration

Operate AI tools like instruments - fast prototyping loops, rapid evaluation, continuous refinement - getting through in days what would take a team weeks, without cutting corners.

Ownership breadth

Own a design surface end to end: concept, prototype, production code, and the system it plugs into.

The Challenge

• Turn a single problem into several distinct, high-fidelity prototypes so the team chooses between real options, not one idea presented one way

• Build production-quality UI components and interactions in code, so what we're evaluating is close to what we'd ship
• Ground decisions in first-principles thinking about our users - solo business owners with 90 seconds to spare
• Champion simplicity: cut, collapse, and clarify so the product feels effortless for non-designers and non-technologists
• Bridge design and engineering - translating concepts into real code, and feasibility into the design process from the start
• Evolve Bridgeway's design system so the team ships faster and quality compounds instead of resetting each screen
• Two things matter most in this role: 1. Systems - Can you build a design system and prototyping workflow that compounds - so every new prototype starts stronger than the last? 2. Review - Can you judge quality at an unreasonably high bar - spotting the two options worth building out of a wall of AI-generated ones, and saying why?

What is needed to succeed

• Comfortable in Figma and a code editor - and increasingly reach for the code editor first
• Strong front-end skills (React, TypeScript, CSS, animation)
• Strong sense of build - an understanding of craft, hierarchy, restraint - and can explain why something works
• Naturally explore multiple directions before converging, and you'd rather show than describe
• Prototype in hours, not days, using AI tools without cutting corners on quality
• A bias toward simplicity and love designing for real people - SMB owners, not power users
• Think in systems and build reusable components, not one-off screens
• Genuinely excited about AI agents and new interaction paradigms, not just AI as a buzzword
