Job Description

We’re seeking an AI-Native Visual Designer. A new-era hybrid designer with deep visual judgment, strong design fundamentals, and hands-on experience shaping AI systems. You will help train, evaluate, and improve AI-powered creative tools by applying expert annotation, quality assessment, and design-led thinking. This role sits at the intersection of design, data, and product/engineering, ensuring our models deliver visually excellent, brand-aligned, and human-centred output.

1. Visual Evaluation & Annotation

• Annotate and label large volumes of visual data (images, UI layouts, compositions, graphics, photos).

• Provide high-quality tagging related to style, composition, colour theory, typography, and visual hierarchy.

• Evaluate AI-generated output for accuracy, aesthetic quality, usability, and alignment with design principles.

• Identify patterns, errors, and edge cases to improve model performance.

2. Design Quality Assessment

• Develop visual scoring criteria and rubrics to guide model improvement.

• Review outputs across various creative formats (illustration, branding, UI components, marketing visuals).

• Validate whether outputs meet user expectations, brand standards, accessibility guidelines, and ethical guidelines.

3. Cross-Functional Collaboration

• Work closely with machine learning engineers, research scientists, and product teams to provide design-driven feedback loops.

• Translate design concepts into structured feedback that model teams can use (e.g., style attributes, visual defects, composition rules).

• Help communicate creative insights into technical documentation.

4. Prototyping & Creative Exploration

• Use generative AI tools to create visuals, test hypotheses, and prototype user workflows.

• Explore new capabilities and push the boundaries of AI-assisted creativity.

• Offer creative direction for improving model outputs and user-facing features.

5. Data & Process Stewardship

• Maintain data quality and consistency in annotation projects.

• Contribute to the development of taxonomies for visual styles, attributes, and design patterns.

• Document annotation methodologies and participate in improving annotation tooling.

Qualifications

Design Foundations

• Strong grasp of composition, color theory, typography, layout, visual hierarchy, and storytelling principles.

• Portfolio demonstrating visual design excellence across one or more domains (graphic, product, UI/UX, illustration, etc.)

AI & Technical Understanding

• Familiarity with generative AI tools (image models, large language models, design AIs).

• Understanding of how AI training data, annotation, and quality metrics influence model behavior.

• Ability to evaluate model output with precision and articulate actionable feedback.

Collaboration & Communication

• Able to translate design critique into structured, repeatable feedback for technical and product partners.

• Experience collaborating with engineers, researchers, or technical teams is a plus.

• Strong written communication skills and comfort in documentation-heavy workflows.

Bonus Skills

• Experience with Figma, Adobe Creative Cloud, or 3D tools.

• Prior data labeling, annotation, or ML operations experience.

• Basic familiarity with scripting (Python), prompt engineering, or dataset tooling.

• Knowledge of design accessibility (WCAG), usability heuristics, or user research methods.

This role is perfect for designers who are:

• Curious about the future of AI-driven creativity

• Comfortable with both artistic judgment and structured evaluation

• Excited to influence how AI models “see” and “create”

• Skilled in both visual taste and systematic thinking
