Founding Product Designer

Both short-term and permanent roles are possible.

About Bolter

Bolter is an AI agent platform built to help people get real work done, without needing to stitch together multiple tools or spend weeks setting things up.

You describe what you need in plain language and Bolter creates and runs agents that can carry out the work end to end. They retain context, remember how you work and can also create real, shareable apps such as trackers and dashboards.

Bolter is funded and currently at the validation-sprint stage, working with a small group of high-impact operators. The product already exists. We are now looking for a founding designer to lead a significant redesign and establish the design foundations for what comes next.

About the role

As Bolter’s founding designer, you will rethink how people create, understand and work with AI agents across the product.

That includes the agent-building experience, the workspace where people can steer their agents, and the applications those agents generate.

You will be working with an existing product, but there is no established design system you need to preserve. You will build that system from the ground up while deciding which parts of the current experience should evolve, which should be reworked and what new interaction patterns Bolter needs.

The design problem goes beyond improving the interface. It is working out what it should feel like to collaborate with agents that retain context, carry out work and create software themselves.

You will work directly with the GM in a lean team, with specialised AI agents supporting implementation. The product is still early enough that the core design decisions are open, and your work will shape how Bolter develops from here.
