[Hiring] Product Design Engineer @Tellos, Inc.

Role Description

We’re looking for someone who can move across all three roles: product manager, designer, and engineer. You’ll understand the problem, design a simple solution, and build it into the product. You’ll work closely with our team and users, but you won’t need someone to translate every idea into detailed requirements for you.

What You’ll Own

• Understand the problem: Talk with users, observe workflows, and separate the real problem from the requested solution.
• Decide what to build: Define the simplest useful solution and what can wait.
• Design the experience: Create clear, thoughtful interfaces and prototypes in Figma.
• Build it: Turn your designs into polished, production-ready React interfaces.
• Improve it: Watch how people use what you ship and iterate based on real behavior.
• Raise the bar: Improve existing workflows, components, interactions, and design consistency.

Qualifications

• Strong product judgment and comfort working through ambiguous problems.
• Excellent UX and visual design skills.
• Strong frontend engineering experience with React, TypeScript, and modern CSS.
• The ability to move naturally between Figma and production code.
• High standards for typography, spacing, responsiveness, states, and interaction details.
• Experience using AI tools to prototype and ship faster without sacrificing judgment.
• Clear communication and comfort collaborating with a remote U.S.-based team.
• A bias toward ownership, speed, and finishing what you start.

How to Apply

Show us one product or feature you helped take from problem to production. Explain what you personally researched, decided, designed, and built.

• Your portfolio
• Examples of production interfaces you personally built
• A brief explanation of how you use AI in your work

We care less about your title and more about whether you can understand a difficult problem, create a simple solution, and ship it. We believe in hiring people, not resumes. If you’re excited by Tellos’s mission but unsure if you meet every requirement, we still encourage you to apply; we’d love to learn what you’d bring to the team.
