[Hiring] Lead UX/UI Designer @Assembly Software

Role Description

Most companies say they want a design leader with vision. What they usually mean is someone who agrees with decisions that were already made and makes them look good. This is not that job. We want someone who walks into a room, forms a real opinion about what our product experience should become, and is willing to defend it.

As the Lead UX/UI Designer at Assembly, you'll operate at every altitude:

• One day you're in a strategy conversation with our executives.
• The next you're deep in a prototype at nine at night because something still feels off.
• You'll spend real time with customers, treating their feedback as a clue rather than a spec.
• You'll get into Product and Engineering's work early enough to actually shape what gets built, not just review it after the fact.

You'd be Assembly's first senior UX hire, so this job isn't about fitting into an existing design org. It's about building the point of view that org will eventually follow. We expect you to use AI as part of how you work, not as a side project, and to have real opinions about where AI belongs inside the product experience itself. If this sounds like the seat you've been waiting for, we'd love to hear from you.
