Product Designer
About us
Parallel is a web infrastructure company. Our products are used by leading businesses in sales, marketing, insurance, and coding to build best-in-class AI agents with flexible and powerful programmatic access to the web.
We've raised $130 million from Kleiner Perkins, Index Ventures, Spark Capital, Khosla Ventures, First Round, and Terrain to build the web for AIs. We're forming a world-class team of engineers, designers, marketers, sellers, researchers, and operational experts to achieve our mission.
Job: As our first design hire, you will shape and build the best consumer showcase of what Parallel’s powerful APIs can do. You’ll also be responsible for building a developer playground that’s a joy to use. Additionally, you will extend and evolve our brand across multiple surfaces—product, marketing, and beyond—ensuring every touchpoint feels cohesive and intentional.
You: Love crafting experiences that are as beautiful as they are functional. Your portfolio shows end-to-end ownership, from design exploration to polished, shipped work. You have taste in both product and brand design, and you obsess about the details that make interfaces delightful. You thrive at the intersection of usability and identity, and you want your work to be seen, used, and loved by millions.
Life at Parallel
Our team works fully in-person, between our Palo Alto HQ and San Francisco office. We’re a flat, talent-dense organization dedicated to solving technical and creative problems.
We seek like-minded individuals who share our passion for applying science, creativity, and consistency to big and complex problems with equally big outcomes. These are our values:
Own customer impact: It’s on us to ensure real-world outcomes for our customers.
Obsess over craft: Perfect every detail because quality compounds.
Accelerate change: Ship fast, adapt faster, and move frontier ideas into production.
Create win-wins: Creatively turn trade-offs into upside.
Make high-conviction bets: Try and fail. But succeed an unfair amount.
