Staff Designer

We're building an autonomous AI agent that investigates and resolves production incidents. When something breaks at 2am, Cleric figures out why and tells engineers what's actually wrong. It's in production at high-scale companies today.

This is uncommon territory for a designer. The interfaces for AI agents don't exist yet, and you'll be inventing them. How do you build trust in an autonomous system? How do you make reasoning legible without overwhelming? These are the problems.

You'll own design across brand, web, marketing, and product. The brand is still taking shape, so you'll define it, not just execute within it. You'll work with a creative director on strategy and a development team on implementation, but the design decisions are yours.

We care about craft. When engineers look at Cleric, we want them to feel like they're using something that was made with intention.

1. Define and evolve Cleric's visual identity, including illustration styles, typography, and design systems.
