Job description

About Us

Aqua Voice is building the voice input layer for the age of AI. We train our own models and build deep OS integrations because doing voice well requires controlling the entire stack.

The way people work is changing. IC work is over; you manage AI agents now. This type of work is wonderfully suited for voice.

We aren't building conversational agents. We believe the most natural way to interact with your computer is voice in text out (VITO). We believe that voice belongs at a level above the application, and that a small company can win by pushing the envelope.

We are applying relentless energy to this opportunity and the results so far have been good. We hope you will join us.

The Role

We need a designer who can also write code.

You will own design across our desktop app, web properties, and marketing. You will implement your own work in React, TypeScript, and CSS.

This is a design role first. We care more about your taste than your engineering speed.

What You'll Do

- Design and build product interfaces

- Own the full design process from concept to implementation

- Work across desktop, web, and marketing

- Ship work directly, not just hand off mockups

What We're Looking For

- Strong visual design skills and a portfolio that demonstrates them

- Ability to implement designs in frontend code

- Experience shipping real products

- Comfort working autonomously

- Opinions about typography, motion, and interaction design

- Experience with Framer is a plus

Compensation (from employer):
$130K – $210K • Offers Equity • Offers Bonus
