OpenRouter is hiring a
Remote Product Designer
About the RoleOpenRouter is the largest marketplace of LLMs, providing a unified API to access and orchestrate models across providers. As the platform grows, so does the complexity of how developers discover, evaluate, and integrate models into real applications.We’re hiring a Product Designer to help shape both the product and how it’s presented.This role spans core product surfaces (user dashboards, documentation, model pages, rankings, policy & guardrails, chatroom) and external-facing surfaces (landing pages, email templates, and other marketing touchpoints). You’ll help define how OpenRouter works and how it communicates.This is a hands-on role for someone who ships. You’ll operate in an AI-first workflow, using modern tools to move quickly from idea → prototype → production-quality output. You should be comfortable working in the space between design and development—building, iterating, and refining in close collaboration with engineers.What You’ll Work On* Core product surfaces (dashboards, model pages, usage + analytics)\n* Model discovery, comparison, and evaluation experiences\n* Developer workflows (API onboarding, docs, playgrounds, integrations)\n* Marketing and brand surfaces (landing pages, email templates, growth experiments)\n* New product directions (tooling, marketplaces)\n* Rapid prototypes to explore and validate ideas\n\nKey ResponsibilitiesProduct & UX* Design clear, intuitive interfaces for complex systems (LLMs, APIs, routing, pricing, latency)\n* Turn ambiguous ideas into concrete product direction and shipped experiences\n* Own work end-to-end: concept → prototype → production\n\nMarketing & Brand* Design and build high-quality landing pages and growth surfaces\n* Create scalable templates (email, content, campaigns)\n* Help evolve OpenRouter’s visual identity as the product expands\n\nAI-First Execution* Use AI tools to accelerate design, prototyping, and iteration\n* Move fluidly between design tools, code-adjacent environments, and production surfaces\n* Prototype ideas quickly and validate through real usage\n\nSystems & Consistency* Contribute to and evolve the design system\n* Create reusable patterns for technical and data-heavy interfaces\n* Maintain consistency across product and marketing surfaces\n\nCollaboration* Work closely with engineers in a fast, low-process environment\n* Review and understand PRs, frontend changes, and implementation details as needed\n* Contribute to product and growth strategy, not just execution\n* Communicate through prototypes and shipped work rather than long specs\n\nWhat We’re Looking ForCore Requirements* 3–8+ years of product design experience\n* Strong portfolio of shipped work\n* Experience with complex or technical products (developer tools, SaaS, data-heavy apps)\n\nDesign × Engineering Fluency* Comfortable reading and understanding frontend code, PRs, and engineering workflows\n* Able to collaborate directly with engineers on implementation details\n* Able to use code-based or AI-assisted tools to prototype and iterate\n* Ability to write code is a plus, but not required\n\nAI-Forward Builder* Comfortable using AI tools as a core part of your workflow\n* Able to move quickly from idea to implementation using modern tooling\n* Interested in how AI changes how products are designed and built\n\nProduct Thinking* Strong ability to simplify complex systems\n* Good judgment on scope, prioritization, and tradeoffs\n* Comfortable working with ambiguity\n\nCraft & Execution* High bar for visual design, interaction design, and clarity\n* Ability to produce production-ready work with minimal iteration\n* Attention to detail across both product and marketing surfaces\n\nNice to Have* Experience with AI/ML products or developer platforms\n* Experience designing data visualization or analytics interfaces\n* Experience designing high-performing marketing sites or growth surfaces\n* Ability to write or meaningfully modify frontend code (e.g. React, HTML/CSS)\n\n
