ROLE OVERVIEW

The Staff Web Designer joins Harvey's Web team to define and elevate the design experience across harvey.ai http://harvey.ai and all web-facing surfaces. The team is responsible for translating Harvey's brand and product story into compelling, accessible, and high-performing web experiences that drive awareness, engagement, and pipeline. In this role, you will own and evolve the website design system, lead user research and testing initiatives, and set the quality bar for every page that ships. You will partner closely with web engineers, motion designers, product marketing, and brand stakeholders to deliver end-to-end design solutions at the pace a category-defining legal AI company demands. It is a rare opportunity to shape how the world first encounters Harvey—and to build the design infrastructure that scales that experience.

WHAT YOU'LL DO

- Own and evolve the website design system—establishing scalable patterns, component libraries, and governance standards that maintain consistency and accelerate delivery across all web surfaces.

- Lead the end-to-end design process for web projects, from concept and user research through interaction design, prototyping, and detailed technical specification hand-off to web engineers and motion designers.

- Drive innovation through exploration, prototyping, and user testing to continuously improve user experience, conversion, and accessibility across harvey.ai http://harvey.ai and related properties.

- Mentor junior web designers, embedding best practices around responsive design, accessibility, and design-system governance to raise the team's collective quality bar.

- Run design demos, present work to marketing leadership and cross-functional stakeholders, and articulate design rationale with clarity and expertise.

- Leverage AI tools and emerging technologies to accelerate design workflows, explore new interaction paradigms, and push the boundary of what a best-in-class legal AI website can be.

WHAT YOU HAVE

- 8+ years of professional design experience with a significant focus on web and digital product design, including demonstrated impact at a staff or senior-staff level.

- A portfolio that showcases mastery of user experience design, interaction design, responsive web design, and design-system architecture.

- Deep expertise in systems thinking—building, scaling, and governing design systems that serve multiple teams and use cases.

- Strong command of modern design tools (e.g., Figma) and comfort working at the intersection of design and front-end development, including providing pixel-level specifications and technical hand-offs.

- Demonstrated ability to leverage AI-assisted design workflows and a track record of raising quality and velocity in fast-paced, high-growth environments.

- Excellent communication and presentation skills, with experience running design reviews, stakeholder demos, and cross-functional critiques.
