About the Role

We are seeking an AI-Native Visual Designer to shape the future of AI-powered creative tools. This is a unique opportunity to blend deep visual judgment with hands-on experience in training and evaluating AI systems, sitting at the intersection of design, data, and product development.

Responsibilities

  • Annotate and label visual data (images, UI layouts, graphics) with high-quality tags related to style, composition, and color theory.
  • Evaluate AI-generated output for aesthetic quality, usability, and alignment with design principles, identifying patterns and errors to improve model performance.
  • Develop visual scoring criteria and rubrics to guide model improvement across various creative formats.
  • Collaborate with machine learning engineers and research scientists to provide design-driven feedback loops and translate design concepts into structured feedback.
  • Use generative AI tools to explore new capabilities, prototype user workflows, and offer creative direction for model outputs.

Requirements

  • Strong grasp of composition, color theory, typography, layout, visual hierarchy, and storytelling principles.
  • Portfolio demonstrating visual design excellence across one or more domains (graphic, product, UI/UX, illustration).
  • Familiarity with generative AI tools (image models, design AIs) and understanding of how AI training data influences model behavior.
  • Ability to evaluate model output with precision and articulate actionable feedback.
  • Strong written communication skills and comfort in documentation-heavy workflows.

Nice-to-Haves

  • Experience with Figma, Adobe Creative Cloud, or 3D tools.
  • Prior data labeling, annotation, or ML operations experience.
  • Basic familiarity with scripting (Python), prompt engineering, or dataset tooling.
  • Knowledge of design accessibility (WCAG), usability heuristics, or user research methods.
