11.8 is a venture studio building and backing early-stage products, from fleet management systems to marketplaces to automation platforms already generating real revenue. We work with sharp, execution-focused operators rather than optimizing for pedigree. Small team, fast pace, real products in market.

Responsibilities

Volunteer/Contract (depending on experience) UX/UI Designer role for one of our portfolio products, an AI-powered productivity app. You'd own design across the board. What we're trying to get done:

Set up Figma properly for the team, file structure, organization, the works
Redesign the landing page
Design the payment and upgrade flow
Audit the current web app and find where it's clunky or losing people
Build a real design system and component library so we stop reinventing things
Build out a design harness, our internal AI-assisted workflow for generating and iterating on design work faster
Update the mobile app's existing screens, not starting from scratch
Run branding sessions to nail down what the product looks and feels like
Lead UX research when it's useful, interviews, flows, usability checks
Push design system work forward, not just wait for direction
Turn some of this into case studies as we go

You'll work directly with founders and engineers, iterating fast, and figuring a lot of this out as you go.

Qualifications

Comfortable with Figma and taking a product from rough idea to prototype
Solid UX and UI fundamentals, flows, systems, visual design
Fluent with AI tools in your design workflow, not just curious about them
Can work with ambiguity and move quickly on early-stage products
