Posted Mar 27Lead Product Designer, AI & Agentic Workflows
at Mural
United StatesHybrid
Responsibilities
- - Design platform-level components and primitives for AI.
Requirements
- The Design and Research team turns complexity into clarity, shaping how humans and AI co-create, collaborate, and reason inside a shared visual canvas.
- YOUR MISSION You’ll define AI-native features and think at the platform level about how AI agents operate within Mural’s platform.
- This is not about bolting on AI features.
- Responsibilities (Individual Contributor Work): - Use code as a primary design tool to explore ideas, interactions, and system behaviors, especially for agentic workflows - Rapidly prototype concepts using AI-native tools and “vibe coding” to simulate real interactions, not just visuals - Define how agents behave, communicate, and take action across different moments in a workflow, then express those behaviors through interactive prototypes - Partner closely with engineering to evolve prototypes into
- - Use Figma and other tools to refine, document, and communicate, not as the starting point for design thinking - Contribute to a culture where design artifacts are living systems Coach
- - Contribute to our culture of learning and lead how the team thinks about AI, not as features, but as systems with behavior and responsibility.
- experience with a focus on complex, desktop consumer or enterprise applications. - Familiarity with AI-assisted or agent-based experiences, including ambiguity around roles and autonomy. - Proven ability to contribute to high-quality design systems and product experiences at scale. - Exceptional craft: visual clarity, spacing, motion, and interaction polish are second nature. - Strong systems thinking: understands how design decisions cascade across flows, surfaces, and user journeys. -
- Experience working cross-functionally in highly collaborative, iterative environments. - Comfort operating in undefined spaces where patterns do not yet exist ALSO GREAT IF YOU BRING -
- Experience with canvas-based or spatial interfaces - Background in multi-agent systems, orchestration, or workflow automation -
Experience
- WHAT YOU'LL BRING - 10+ years of product design
Benefits
- Responsibilities (Both Player & Coach): - Reframe problems and connect dots across product areas, designing beyond feature asks to improve whole journeys. - Lead and facilitate workshops or design sprints to drive alignment and accelerate strategic decision-making. - Collaborate with product, research, and data partners to define success metrics and evaluate impact. - Advocate through example for design’s role in shaping product vision, not just execution.
- Experience designing with structured and unstructured data in the same environment - Familiarity with concepts like memory, context windows, tool use, and agent reasoning - History of shaping 0→1 products or platform capabilities The base salary for this role ranges from $156,000 - $195,000 + bonus + benefits.
- Compensation offered will be determined by factors such as location, level, job-related knowledge, skills, and experience.
Additional details
- ABOUT THE TEAM At Mural, we’re building a new layer of collaboration, one where people and intelligent systems work together in real time.
- We work across product, engineering, and research to define how agentic systems show up in real workflows to enhance human collaboration and to make work better.
- You’ll design systems where users and agents collaborate on a data-connected, visual canvas, moving from ideas to structured outcomes with shared context.
- It’s about designing behaviors, orchestration, and interaction models for agents that think, act, and adapt to the needs of teams large and small.
- You’ll help define new interaction patterns where control, transparency, and autonomy stay in balance.
- You’ll succeed if you can turn ambiguous, emerging capabilities into clear, usable systems that feel natural inside a visual workspace.
- - Translate complex system behavior into clear, usable experiences, balancing visibility, control, and autonomy.
- Responsibilities (Practice Leadership): - Model design excellence for peers, mentoring others in visual craft, systems design, and conceptual development.
- - Partner with design systems, research, and engineering teams to elevate quality and create unified experiences.
- - Influence product strategy through design-led exploration and storytelling that clarifies opportunity spaces.
