New Interfaces

Who We Are

Humane is a team of proven industry experts who have invented, built, and shipped category-defining hardware and software products to billions of people across the globe. We're known for building the audacious, ambitious, and the impossible, and we're doing it again. Our vision for the next shift between humans and computing requires innovation across multiple emerging technologies in hardware and software, from devices to cloud services.

About The Role

We're seeking a Lead Designer to join our Intelligent Systems Design team. If you are a Digital Product Designer ready to move beyond traditional interface paradigms, this role offers the opportunity to help shape foundational aspects of our AI-powered experiences, with a particular focus on reimagining how computers remember, understand, and surface information. You'll alternate between deep exploratory work and shipping features that will fundamentally change how people interact with technology.

Working across Ai Pin, Cosmos, and future products, you'll tackle challenges like designing AI-powered memory systems and creating interfaces that understand and respond to people's needs. Success in this role requires both creative vision and the technical ability to build and validate ideas using real AI technology. You'll have the space to explore challenging problems while maintaining a clear focus on shipping products that work.

Our goal is to create technology that feels obvious once you experience it. We're looking for designers who can envision a world where computing enhances our human capabilities rather than demanding our attention. We welcome applications from candidates of all backgrounds who are excited to help reshape how humans and computers work together.

What You Might Do

• Design and build functional prototypes of AI-powered interfaces that adapt to human behavior

• Develop new approaches for how computers capture and surface information naturally

• Create new paradigms for information architecture in AI-first systems

• Validate concepts through hands-on prototyping with modern tools and AI technologies

• Collaborate with designers and engineers to bring experimental ideas to production

• Define clear interaction patterns for AI system behavior and feedback loops

• Focus deeply on key areas like memory systems and generative interfaces

Essential Qualifications

• 5+ years of digital product design experience, with a proven track record of shipping products

• Strong prototyping abilities using tools like SwiftUI, Python, Javascript or Origami

• Experience building with AI technologies (particularly LLMs) in products or substantial side projects

• Portfolio demonstrating novel approaches to complex interaction problems

• Ability to balance exploratory design work with practical implementation constraints

• Strong systems thinking skills and ability to design for emergent behaviors

• Enthusiasm for building intuitive, empathetic technology

• Curiosity for learning new technologies and finding unexpected solutions to complex problems

Preferred Skills

• A passion for tinkering and experimentation

• Background in information architecture or knowledge management systems

• Understanding of machine learning concepts and their practical applications in UIs

• Experience designing products that learn from people’s behavior

• Interest in cognitive science and how humans process/organize information
