Job Description

We’re seeking a Staff Product Designer to join a new team at HubSpot, Foundry.

## Where You’ll Work

• Location: Remote - Seattle, SF

• Alternate location: Remote / Hybrid

• Travel: Approximately monthly to Seattle/SF for in-person team or AI industry events.

As a Product Designer on the Foundry team, you will design emerging products that solve real GTM jobs for small businesses - fast.

You will build and experiment at the edge of what AI makes possible, putting early versions in front of real founders to find what works, and scaling what resonates into products that earn a place in every SMB’s stack.

You’ll ship working products to real users weekly, work directly with AI models and APIs, and make design decisions that prioritize learning velocity over perfection.

This is a full-stack, AI-native building role. You’ll design systems that combine deterministic workflows with agentic reasoning, build products that handle unstructured data and messy real-world inputs, and iterate based on what customers actually do. You should be as comfortable prompting a model as you are designing a feature.

## About Foundry

HubSpot Foundry is a small, focused team with a singular mission: win the next generation of small businesses by building where small businesses start. The Foundry team operates autonomously, with a builder mindset, weekly shipping, and founder-level ownership.

We are building and experimenting at the edge of what AI makes possible, putting early versions in front of real founders to find what works, and scaling what resonates into products that earn a place in every SMB’s stack.

We build standalone modules that solve single go-to-market jobs exceptionally well, deliver value in minutes, and expand naturally into the full HubSpot platform. Foundry builds a portfolio of modules for critical go-to-market use cases - including creating agent teammates that help teams get discovered in the AI era, find and qualify prospects, and automate human tasks.

What We Look for Across All Foundry Roles

Foundry is for builders who want to move fast, learn from customers, and thrive in ambiguity to get things done. Regardless of your role, you should bring:

• AI-native fluency.You use AI daily, not as a novelty, but as infrastructure. You have a deep understanding of what models can and can’t do, where they break, and how to design around those limits. You’ve built with LLMs, agents, or AI-powered products and have strong intuitions about product building.

• A hacker spirit.You prototype before you plan. You’d rather test an idea with real users this week than spend a month getting alignment. You love solving puzzles and are comfortable writing code, hacking together demos, or getting your hands dirty with data.

• First-principles thinking.You navigate ambiguity by going back to what’s true, not what’s been done before. You find simple, easy-to-understand solutions to complex problems and you’re willing to throw out playbooks when the situation demands it.

• Deep user empathy for small businesses.You understand what it’s like to wear multiple hats, to be the same person qualifying leads, running sales calls, and managing the website. You are passionate about building for small businesses or founders, and helping them grow.

• Intellectual curiosity without ego.You’re comfortable asking questions and learning independently. You think creatively about the risks and benefits of new technologies, moving beyond past checklists. You’d rather be right than be the one who was right.

• Founder-level ownership.You don’t wait for permission. You experiment, you ship products, you get things done. You get energy from ambiguity and rapid change. You’ve built something from zero before or you’ve been the person who made something work when nobody had the answer.

• Design end-to-end product experiences—from initial concept through launch and iteration

• Lead zero-to-one exploration, shaping ambiguous ideas into clear product directions

• Define and optimize activation and early value moments (e.g., delivering value in minutes)

• Rapidly prototype and test ideas to build conviction and gather real user feedback

• Design AI-native interactions, including conversational flows, system behavior, and feedback loops

• Simplify complex problems into intuitive, easy-to-use experiences for small business users

• Partner closely with product, engineering, and research to shape both strategy and execution

• Contribute to new UX paradigms as AI reshapes how software is built and experienced

• Ideally someone with 8+ years of product design experience, with a focus on early-stage or ambiguous problem spaces

• Experience designing zero-to-one products or leading major new product bets

• Experience working in startup or highly iterative, fast-moving environments

• Strong product thinking, especially around onboarding, activation, and user value

• Comfort operating in ambiguity and defining problems before solving them

• Ability to connect user needs, business opportunities, and technical possibilities

• Experience in AI-native product design

• A builder mindset—you prototype, test, and learn by doing

• Ability to simplify complex systems into intuitive experiences

• Strong collaboration and influence across cross-functional teams
