About the Role
This is a rare founding design opportunity at a Y Combinator–backed consumer wearable company operating at the intersection of hardware, health, and human emotion. With prototypes already on users' wrists and a launch film live, the product is real and moving fast.
You will be the first design hire — owning the full consumer-facing design stack from day one. The founding team brings deep pedigree in consumer hardware (ex-Apple), and aesthetics and taste are at the absolute core of this brand. A compelling portfolio is the single most important factor in this hire.
This role can be based in London or San Francisco, and is expected to grow into a design leadership position as the company scales.
What You'll Do
Own the end-to-end UI/UX design for the iOS app, from concept through high-fidelity production assets
Design and maintain the consumer website, ensuring a cohesive, premium brand experience
Create all social media, email, and communications design across every consumer touchpoint
Design event invitations, launch collateral, and campaign materials
Define and steward the brand's visual language — ensuring consistency across hardware, digital, and print
Collaborate cross-functionally with product, hardware, and marketing teams in a fast-moving early-stage environment
What We're Looking For
Required:
A standout portfolio demonstrating UI/UX design for consumer apps and broader brand design — website, social, email, invitations, and events
Strong graphic design fundamentals; exceptional aesthetic sensibility and taste
Proficiency in Figma and Adobe Creative Suite (Illustrator, Photoshop); ability to produce both high-fidelity UI and polished marketing assets
Proven experience designing iOS apps in accordance with Apple's Human Interface Guidelines
Ability to translate a brand identity into every consumer-facing touchpoint with a consistent visual language
Self-starter mentality; comfortable operating with autonomy in an early-stage startup
Eligibility to work in the United Kingdom (London) or the United States (San Francisco) without company visa sponsorship — visa transfers are welcome
Strong signals (nice to have):
Degree from a top design school (e.g. Royal College of Art, RISD, or equivalent)
Prior experience at a consumer company known for exceptional, taste-driven product design
Compensation & Benefits
Salary: ~$150,000 USD (US-based) / ~£75,000 GBP (London-based)
Equity: Up to 1–2% — meaningful founding-level ownership
The company has recently closed a seed round with angels and strategic partners
Visa sponsorship: Not available for new sponsorships; visa transfers are acceptable
Location
Primary office in London, United Kingdom; a San Francisco, USA base is also an option. On-site or hybrid presence is expected — fully remote candidates will be considered on a case-by-case basis depending on location.

Tips for Your UX Designer Job Search
Tailor your portfolio to each role
Recruiters and hiring managers read your case studies before your resume. Cut projects that don't reflect the domain or problem type in the job description and lead with work that mirrors what the role actually involves, whether that's mobile flows, design systems, or research-heavy projects.
Show process, not just final screens
Many ux designer candidates upload polished mockups without showing how they got there. Include wireframes, research synthesis, and iterations so interviewers can see how you think, not just what you shipped. A two-slide case study rarely gets you to a portfolio review.
Apply early to roles that fit
Migrate Mate lists ux designer openings from across the United States in one place, so you can find roles that match and apply directly to each listing.
Target job titles that match your depth
Postings use titles like product designer, UX/UI designer, and experience designer interchangeably. Read the responsibilities carefully. A product designer role at a startup often means owning the full design process solo, while the same title at a larger company may mean embedded work within a single team.
Prepare a design critique for interviews
Most ux designer loops include a live critique or whiteboard exercise. Practice walking through a product you use daily, identifying one friction point, and articulating a specific change with a rationale. Vague answers like 'simplify the nav' fall flat without supporting reasoning.
Negotiate using scope, not just title
When evaluating an offer, ask what the design team owns end-to-end versus what gets handed off to product or engineering. A senior title with no research budget and late-stage handoffs limits your actual growth. Clarifying scope before you accept is as important as the compensation conversation.
UX Designer Jobs: Frequently Asked Questions
Which companies are hiring the most ux designers?
The companies hiring the most ux designers right now include Amazon, Apple, and Google, with the largest share of openings in California, New York, and Washington, based on current listings on Migrate Mate as of August 2026. Hiring volume shifts frequently, so checking current listings gives you the most accurate picture.
How many ux designer jobs are remote?
About 67% of ux designer openings are fully remote or hybrid as of August 2026, making it one of the more flexible design disciplines. User research and content strategy-focused ux roles tend to have the highest share of remote options, while roles embedded in hardware or physical product teams are more likely to require on-site presence.
How do you become a ux designer?
Start by building foundational skills in user research, interaction design, and prototyping through coursework, bootcamps, or self-directed study. Create three to four case studies that show your full design process, from problem framing through testing and iteration. Apply to junior or associate roles, contract work, or internships to get your first professional project on record, then build from there.
How do you get hired as a ux designer with little experience?
Focus on building a portfolio with self-initiated or volunteer projects that demonstrate your process rather than waiting for paid work. Redesign a product you use regularly, document your reasoning thoroughly, and share it publicly. Applying to roles that include 'associate,' 'junior,' or 'entry-level' in the title and companies known for structured design mentorship increases your chances at the start of your career.
What does the ux designer interview process look like?
Most ux designer interview processes include an initial recruiter screen, a portfolio review with a design manager or team lead, a take-home or live design exercise, and a final loop with cross-functional stakeholders including product managers and engineers. Some companies also include a design critique where you walk through a product and identify improvements. The full process typically runs across several rounds spread over two to four weeks.
Where can I find and apply to ux designer jobs?
You can find and apply to ux designer jobs on Migrate Mate, which lists current openings from across the United States in one place. Search the listings to find roles that match your experience and specialization, then apply directly to each one that fits.
