Senior Product Designer, Kiro

Agentic development is redefining how software gets built, and Kiro is at the center of it. Kiro is an agentic AI from AWS that turns prompts into structured requirements, designs, and sequenced tasks, then implements them with parallel agents that verify correctness. It's available as a desktop IDE, a CLI, a web app, a mobile app, and Kiro Crew (an open-source persistent development workspace), all powered by one unified agent harness.

We're looking for a Senior UX Designer to help shape this experience. You'll initially focus on Kiro Web, a surface with two distinct design challenges and significant room to define the experience. You'll build deep understanding of the developer audience while leading hands-on design work: concept framing, interaction patterns, and shipping real improvements that inform longer-term product direction.

The design challenges here are unlike traditional developer tools: How should a developer steer an autonomous agent? What does a spec-driven workflow feel like across an IDE, a terminal, a browser, and a phone? How do you build trust in AI that writes and validates code on your behalf?

You excel in the early, ambiguous stages of design: concept modeling, ecosystem mapping, user story development, and framing the experience before pixels are ever pushed. You know how to set up a problem space so that the right solutions emerge. You are equally strong in execution, iterating rapidly and prototyping in whatever tool fits the moment. You adapt your approach based on the problem, the timeline, and the team. We value designers who bring their own perspective and working style. What matters is the quality of thinking and the impact of the outcome, not conformity to a single methodology.

You will collaborate with product teams, engineering teams, and executive leadership to identify and execute on opportunities, serving as the voice of the developer with senior leadership.
