Founding Product Designer

About the job

Ridley is on a mission to eliminate the $100B homeowners lose each year to real estate commissions. We're building the first AI-powered home-selling platform that empowers homeowners to sell without real estate agents, replacing outdated systems and middlemen with smarter, more transparent tools. With strong early traction and backing from top investors, we’re creating a radically better home-selling experience, and we’re looking for a founding product designer to help lead the charge.

The Role

We’re looking for a Founding Product Designer who can own and drive the Ridley user experience end-to-end. You’ll help define the product vision, craft intuitive and elegant UX across complex workflows, and bring a high-trust, AI-first product to life in a way that feels magical to consumers.

• Create modular design systems that scale with the product

• Design brand assets and marketing pages that earn trust and stand out

What We’re Looking For

• 6+ years of product design experience, including time at startups or fast-moving teams
• A portfolio that shows end-to-end ownership: UX, UI, and shipped product
• Strong systems thinking and a track record of simplifying complex workflows
• Clean, modern design sensibility with a focus on usability and trust
• Experience leading design efforts or functioning as a solo designer
