Forward Deployed Staff Product Designer

At Tribe, we’re on a mission to help enterprises realize the value of AI for their business. Every large enterprise wants to use AI to transform how they operate — but many don’t have the capabilities to do it. That gap is our opportunity.

We’re an AI-native services company that helps enterprises build and deploy best-in-class AI products that deliver real business impact. We partner closely with OpenAI and Anthropic, giving us rare visibility into the most advanced models, roadmaps, and GTM strategies in the world.

We're looking for a Forward Deployed Staff Product Designer to craft elegant, intuitive experiences for AI agents and complex enterprise systems. You'll partner with forward-deployed PMs and client teams, translating AI capabilities into clear conversational flows and interactions.This role requires someone who can parachute into projects, contribute to discovery workshops, and prototype rapidly. You're comfortable with ambiguity and defining UX patterns for novel AI capabilities that don't have established conventions yet.
