Job Description
Title: Product Designer
Location: San FranciscoCompany: ThorinStage: Seed | Incubated at 8VC
About Thorin
Thorin is an applied AI company born out of 8VC’s Build program, focused on redefining how work gets done inside modern organizations. We build proactive, long-horizon AI agents that continuously observe work across Slack, email, meetings, and documents—and take action so nothing falls through the cracks.
Unlike traditional AI tools that wait for prompts or rely on structured systems, Thorin creates a real-time digital twin of how a business actually operates, enabling automation, coordination, and insight over months and years. Backed by 8VC and built with product vision from Joe Lonsdale, Thorin is building foundational infrastructure for agentic, AI-powered productivity.
With backing and product vision from Joe Lonsdale, Thorin is 8VC’s latest incubation, following the success of Affinity, Addepar, Saronic, and other unicorns.
About the Role
We’re hiring a Product Designer to help define and shape the core user experience of Thorin’s AI-powered product. You’ll play a critical role in translating complex AI capabilities into intuitive, elegant workflows that feel natural and valuable to enterprise users.
This role sits at the intersection of product strategy, design craft, and technical collaboration. You’ll take ideas from early concepts through execution, helping ensure Thorin’s product is not only powerful under the hood, but clear, usable, and delightful on the surface.

Help evolve Thorin’s design system and uphold a high bar for design quality.
What You’ll Bring
4+ years of experience as a Product Designer (or equivalent), ideally in SaaS or enterprise products.
Experience designing AI-powered products.
Familiarity with enterprise workflows, productivity tools, or developer-facing products.
Strong product thinking — you can connect user needs, business goals, and technical constraints.
Excellent visual, interaction, and UX design skills, with a portfolio that demonstrates end-to-end ownership.
Experience collaborating closely with engineering and product in fast-moving teams.
Comfort working in ambiguity and shaping problems from scratch in a 0→1 environment.
