Discover how Consertus is driving transformative change for our clients, our people, and the communities we serve at www.consertus.comAbout this Role: We are seeking a Senior UI/UX Designer to own the experience layer across our digital product suite, this position is fully remote and can be based anywhere in the U.S.This isn't a role where you'll be handed wireframes to polish. Consertus is a capital program management and advisory firm that leverages digital innovation to redefine how the world gets built. We've managed over $300B in capital programs across 10+ industries, and we're now building a suite of AI-agent-powered products, that are fundamentally changing how owners manage construction projects, costs, and compliance. Our engineering team moves fast-they build with AI. Cursor, Claude, and other generative coding tools are part of how we ship. We need a designer who doesn't just understand that world but thrives in it: someone who can co-create at the speed of AI-assisted development and translate design intent into something our team can build without losing a step. The question we're obsessed with: when AI can do 90% of the routine work, what does the remaining experience need to be to make our products the ones people want to use? That's what you'll help us figure out.
Key Responsibilities:
- Own end-to-end design for Consertus' digital products, from early research and concept exploration through high-fidelity UI, prototyping, and engineering handoff
- Design the interaction layer for AI-agent-powered features, including conversational interfaces, exception-based workflows, confidence indicators, and trust-building patterns
- Collaborate with a vibe-coding engineering team-our devs build with Claude, Cursor, and other AI-assisted tools, and you'll need to match their pace, speak their language, and design in a way that translates cleanly into their workflow
- Bring AI-native instincts to your own process-leveraging generative tools, AI-assisted prototyping, and emerging design workflows to move faster and think bigger
- Set and defend the quality bar across multiple product surfaces, ensuring consistency and delight even as we ship fast
- Apply deep product thinking to complex business systems
- Conduct user research to deeply understand the needs, pain points, and workflows of capital program managers, owners' representatives, and project controls professionals
- Champion the user's perspective in every conversation-from sprint planning to architectural decisions-and push back when something isn't good enough
- Collaborate daily with engineering, product, and advisory teams across time zones
- Build and evolve a design system that scales across the product suite while allowing for the flexibility each product surface demands80-85% hands-on design work; the remaining time spent on research, design system stewardship, and cross-functional collaboration
Qualifications/Requirements:
7-10+ years of product design experience, with a portfolio that demonstrates strong taste and end-to-end ownershipAI-native design fluency - you use AI tools as a core part of your workflow (generative prototyping, AI-assisted research synthesis, LLM-powered design exploration) and can articulate where they help and where human judgment is irreplaceable Ability to work alongside AI-assisted developers - our engineering team uses tools like Cursor and Claude to build; you'll need to understand their workflow, communicate design intent with precision, and keep up with their pace without sacrificing quality Proven ability to take complex, data-heavy workflows and make them feel simple-and even enjoyable Deep product understanding of complex business systems - you can internalize multi-step approval chains, audit trails, cost control hierarchies, and compliance frameworks, and translate that understanding into designs that are smart without being overwhelming Experience shipping production software (not just concepts or case studies) Strong product thinking: you rethink what an experience should be, not just how it looks Track record of defining and defending a quality bar, especially when there's pressure to cut corners Proficiency in Figma and modern design tooling Experience collaborating closely with engineering teams through implementation Bachelor's in design (Interaction Design, HCI, Visual/Communication Design) or equivalent practical experience
Nice to Have:
- Experience designing AI-powered, AI-agent-driven, or conversational interfaces
- Background in AEC, construction tech, or similar complex B2B domains (financial services, logistics, legal tech, or any domain with multi-step approval workflows and dense data)
- Experience building or scaling design systems
- Motion design and micro-interaction skills
- Front-end fluency-enough to prototype in code, read a pull request, or communicate directly in the language of the codebase
- Startup or early-stage experience where you wore multiple hats and shipped under constraints
- Familiarity with AI-assisted development environments (Cursor, GitHub Copilot, Claude Code)-not as a developer, but as a collaborator who understands how they shape the build process
- What It Means to Be AI-Native Here:
- This isn't a buzzword. Our engineering team builds AI tools every day-using Claude, Cursor, and similar platforms to dramatically accelerate development. That changes the designer's role in a real way:
Speed: Features that used to take weeks to scaffold now take days. Your design process needs to be moved accordingly.
Communication: When a developer is prompting their way through an implementation, precision in your specs and design intent matters more than ever. Ambiguous designs create expensive detours.
Collaboration: You'll be expected to participate in the feedback loop of AI-assisted builds-reviewing outputs, flagging drift from design intent, and helping the team course-correct in real time.
Your own tools: We expect you to bring AI into your own design workflow-whether that's using LLMs to synthesize research, generate explorations, or accelerate documentation. If you're still doing everything by hand, you're leaving speed on the table.
Working Hours: Fully remote
Report directly to the CTO
Compensation Range: $140,000-$180,000 annually, with flexibility based on experience and location.
What's In It For You:

- Why Consertus:
- Shape the UX vision for an AI-powered product suite at the intersection of construction, technology, and capital program management-a $13T global industry that's ripe for transformation

Before you apply
Applying takes about a minute. These four things decide how fast it moves after that.
Your profile is current
It's what we read first. Occupations, seniority and locations matter more than a long history.
Two examples you can talk through
Not a portfolio — just two pieces of work where you can explain the decisions and what you'd change.
A number in mind
What you're on now and what would make you move. We negotiate better when we know both.
Your notice period
Employers plan around it, and it's the question that stalls offers most often.
Once you apply, someone reads it and calls you before anything reaches the employer — usually within two working days.
