Jinba (YC W26)
Full-time
Re-posted 14 days ago
Job description
Job Summary:
Jinba is a startup focused on creating AI-native software, and they are seeking a Founding Design Engineer to own the full visual and interactive experience of their platform. This role involves building the design system, creating motion design, and collaborating with engineering to ship features.
Responsibilities:
• Design and build Jinba's design system: components, tokens, patterns, and documentation
• Own UI/UX for core product surfaces, from concept through implementation
• Create motion design that guides users through workflow creation and execution
• Write clean, maintainable frontend code (we use shadcn/ui and modern React patterns)
• Collaborate directly with engineering to ship features, not just hand off specs
• Establish design processes and standards as the first dedicated design hire
Qualifications:
Required:
• Strong product design sense with portfolio showing end-to-end ownership
• Experience building or significantly contributing to a design system
• Motion design ability: you understand timing, easing, and how animation communicates state
• Proficient in React/TypeScript; you ship your own designs
• Familiar with component libraries like shadcn/ui, Radix, or similar
• Understanding of design tokens, CSS architecture, and scalable frontend patterns
• Experience with developer tools, no-code platforms, or workflow/automation products
• Comfort designing complex interfaces: canvas editors, drag-and-drop builders, multi-step flows
• Ability to simplify dense functionality without dumbing it down
• Design engineer or founding designer roles at early-stage startups
• Experience at companies like Figma, Linear, Notion, Retool, Vercel, or similar dev/productivity tools
• Built a design system from scratch at a growing company
• Background combining design and engineering
• Generalist: you'd rather own the whole surface than perfect one component forever
• Opinionated but collaborative: you have strong taste and can articulate why
• Early-stage ready: you're excited by ambiguity and building foundations others will use
Company:
We help regulated enterprises build and ship production-level AI agents as fast as startups. Founded in 2024, the company is headquartered in San Francisco, USA, with a team of 2-10 employees. The company is currently Early Stage.
