About this role

About This Role

This is a high-ownership role for a founding designer who cares about velocity and solving real customer problems. You won't just create mockups — you will own the entire design process end-to-end, speaking directly to customers and making core product and UX decisions. You'll be our first full-time designer, with ownership over UX and UI across the entire product.

This means you need to be comfortable designing for complex, AI-first workflows while maintaining the simplicity that makes our product accessible to non-technical users. If you only want to work on visual design without engaging with the broader user experience, this might not be the right role for you.

What you will do

Collaborate closely with customers to understand their needs and design solutions that solve their problems. Own the design process end-to-end for new features. Identify new AI product opportunities, design concepts, and build prototypes with our customers. Create new intuitive interfaces that make sense in an AI-first world where traditional UI patterns don't apply. Work side-by-side with engineers to ship high-quality features quickly.

Your profile

You have work experience designing UX and UI for software, ideally at early-stage startups working on B2B SaaS products. You have great attention to detail and exceptional skills across interaction design, visual design, and design systems. You don't limit yourself to static Figma designs — you build interactive prototypes with tools like V0, Lovable, Cursor, or Figma Make. You love talking to customers to uncover real pain points and can independently drive the design process from discovery through launch. You thrive in fast-paced, ambiguous environments, learn quickly from mistakes, and focus on what matters. You have a strong interest in AI and LLMs and are excited by the design challenges of voice interfaces.

Traits

You have an eye for beauty and can craft visually appealing designs. You don't work on assumptions — instead you deeply try to understand our business and customers to build a mental model of how they think and work. You are able to translate ideas, problems, and solutions into intuitive experiences. You are technical enough to understand trade-offs and pragmatic in your approach to design; you don't get upset if things aren't implemented exactly as you suggested. You know how to ship quickly, iterate fast, and deliver value — you care about quality, but you know shipped is better than perfect. And you are deep into AI and LLMs and want to build software in an AI-native way.

Skills

You can create visually appealing and intuitive UI/UX in Figma. You can quickly build usable high-fidelity prototypes to test rough ideas with customers using tools like Lovable, V0, or Figma Make. You have worked with software engineers in a collaborative way and have a basic understanding of technical topics.

What makes you a great fit

You align with our principles. You take full ownership of projects. You want to work in-person in Berlin. You know what it takes to succeed in a fast-paced, high-ambiguity environment. You know how to prioritize high-leverage work. You want to work with a smart and driven team with (self-reported) low ego. You want to help build a multi-billion dollar company from the ground up. You have a strong portfolio showcasing your work on complex, user-centered products.

You may not be a great fit if…

You prefer a remote-first environment. You like to work on your own with minimum collaboration. You have no prior experience working with software engineering teams. You only want to work on visual design instead of the entire user experience. You think AI is just "hype" and doesn't provide real value. You want to work 9-5.

Perks

Above-market pay & equity. Access to any (AI) tool that makes you more productive. Gym subscription. Relocation support if you don't live in Berlin.

About telli

Hi all! We're Seb (CTO), Finn (CEO), and Philipp (COO), building telli.com. What we do telli builds AI voice agents that automate phone calls for companies selling complex products like solar panels, mortgages, and insurance. Sales journeys with outbound calls convert far better than online-only funnels — but managing those calls has always been painful and expensive. Problem Companies rely on warm outbound calls to drive conversion, but scaling them is broken. They reach less than 50% of their warm leads on the phone. They pay ~$55 per connected call hour. And they have almost no quantitative insight into what's actually driving revenue from those calls. Solution telli is the AI call automation platform for B2C companies. With telli, businesses can reach leads with a smart calling strategy and multi-modal approach (SMS), make human-like calls in multiple languages, achieve clear outcomes like qualification, appointment booking, or direct transfers, and understand what's happening across thousands of calls at scale. For example, a leading home-buying platform uses telli to fully automate their lead pre-qualification. Team Finn and Philipp ran contact center operations for Enpal's heat pump unit — a $2.4bn European energy installer. They know this problem inside-out. Seb studied CS at Stanford and built software at Pitch before joining as CTO. We launched at Y Combinator and have grown to over $2M in annualized revenue with a team of just 12. Interested?
