Why This Role Stands Out
Shape the future of AI-powered web infrastructure by owning the end-to-end design of a cutting-edge developer-facing product at a rapidly growing, well-funded company. You'll thrive here if you have a proven track record in designing for developers, a strong visual craft, and a systems-thinking approach, with the opportunity to make a significant impact from day one. Apply now to join a talented, dense organization and contribute to building the web for AIs.
Quick Overview
Job Description
About us
Parallel is a web infrastructure company. Our products are used by leading businesses in sales, marketing, insurance, and coding to build best-in-class AI agents with flexible and powerful programmatic access to the web.
We've raised $230 million from Kleiner Perkins, Sequoia, Index Ventures, Spark Capital, Khosla Ventures, First Round, and Terrain to build the web for AIs. We're currently valued at $2 billion and we're forming a world-class team of engineers, designers, marketers, sellers, researchers, and operational experts to achieve our mission.
Job: As our product designer, you will own the end-to-end design of our developer-facing product, with an eye toward making powerful technology accessible far beyond a technical audience.. That means reimagining the playground, bringing coherence to our API architecture and navigation, and building the systems that scale across surfaces. You’ll shape what we build alongside engineering and product from the start, not after scoping is done.
You: You’ve shipped developer-facing product and you know what makes or breaks a developer’s first hour with a new tool. Your portfolio shows high visual craft without losing function, and end-to-end ownership from exploration to production. You think in systems, push back when the reasoning is sound, and move fast without being precious. You’ll be opening PRs here, so frontend comfort is a real advantage, but what matters more is that you don’t treat the line between design and engineering as someone else’s problem.
Life at Parallel
Our team works fully in-person, between our Palo Alto HQ and San Francisco office. We’re a flat, talent-dense organization dedicated to solving technical and creative problems.
We seek like-minded individuals who share our passion for applying science, creativity, and consistency to big and complex problems with equally big outcomes. These are our values:
Own customer impact: It’s on us to ensure real-world outcomes for our customers.
Obsess over craft: Perfect every detail because quality compounds.
Accelerate change: Ship fast, adapt faster, and move frontier ideas into production.
Create win-wins: Creatively turn trade-offs into upside.
Make high-conviction bets: Try and fail. But succeed an unfair amount.
