Product Designer @ August AI

---

Full Time • Bangalore, India

August is building autonomous clinical AI for the world. The product today shows up as a 24/7 health companion: people use August to understand symptoms, lab reports, prescriptions, medications, and the confusing space between doctor visits. But the company we are building is bigger than a companion. We are building the clinical reasoning, memory, safety, and workflow infrastructure for AI systems that can take on increasingly complex clinical work, accurately, empathetically, and with the right guardrails.

Clinical AI will only work if people can trust it, understand it, and act on it. The interface needs to make complex reasoning feel simple. It needs to handle uncertainty honestly. It needs to know when to reassure, when to ask better questions, when to escalate, and when to get out of the way.

This is not a decorative UI role. You will shape how millions of people experience autonomous clinical AI: how they describe symptoms, upload reports, understand risks, review next steps, receive follow-ups, and build trust in an AI system that is moving toward doing more real clinical work. We are looking for a senior product designer who can work from first principles, move fast, prototype deeply, and design AI-native healthcare experiences that are safe, clear, beautiful, and useful.

What you’ll build

• Patient-facing clinical AI experiences
  • Design the core user experience for symptoms, lab reports, prescriptions, health history, follow-ups, triage, care navigation, and longitudinal health memory.
• AI-native interaction patterns
  • Create new patterns for how users interact with clinical AI: conversational flows, structured cards, explainability, uncertainty states, escalation prompts, tool use, follow-up loops, and memory surfaces.
• Clinical reasoning interfaces
  • Design how August communicates possible causes, risk levels, next steps, evidence, safety warnings, and when to seek care — without overwhelming or misleading users.
• Human review and clinical oversight tools
  • Design workflows for doctors, reviewers, and internal teams to inspect cases, review escalations, give feedback, audit AI behavior, and improve the system.
• Trust, safety, and privacy experiences
  • Design moments that make users feel safe: consent, privacy, data controls, escalation, limitations, emergency handling, and clear communication of what August can and cannot do.
• Design system and product craft
  • Build and evolve the design system across mobile, web, WhatsApp-adjacent experiences, internal tools, and future clinical workflows.

Responsibilities

• Own product design end to end: from ambiguous problem statements to research, flows, prototypes, high-fidelity design, implementation, launch, and iteration.
• Develop a deep understanding of patient needs, clinical workflows, doctor constraints, and the emotional reality of people seeking health guidance.
• Partner closely with founders, product, engineering, AI, and clinical teams to define both product strategy and interaction details.
• Design 0→1 experiences for AI-enabled care, including symptom intake, report interpretation, care navigation, clinical follow-up, and escalation.
• Turn complex clinical workflows into simple, intuitive, and trustworthy user experiences.
• Create user journeys, information architecture, wireframes, prototypes, interaction specs, and high-fidelity visual designs.
• Design AI interaction patterns for memory, uncertainty, reasoning, explainability, handoff, and human oversight.
• Use data, user research, clinical feedback, and product intuition to validate and improve design decisions.
• Raise the bar for visual craft, interaction design, accessibility, and usability across the product.
• Work closely with engineers to ensure high-quality implementation and fast iteration.
• Help establish August’s design culture, design system, and product quality bar.

You might be a good fit if you have

• 5+ years of product design experience.
• A strong portfolio showing excellent UX, UI, visual design, and interaction design craft.
• Experience designing complex workflows, multi-step journeys, or products for specialized users.
• Strong ability to simplify complex information without losing accuracy or nuance.
• Experience taking products from 0→1: ambiguity, rough prototypes, fast iteration, and production-quality execution.
• High product judgment. You care whether the design actually helps users, not just whether it looks polished.
• Comfort designing AI-first or conversational experiences where the interface is dynamic, probabilistic, and context-aware.
• Strong prototyping skills in Figma or similar tools.
• Excellent communication and storytelling skills. You can explain design decisions clearly to engineers, doctors, founders, and non-designers.
• Comfort navigating ambiguity and taking ownership of broad initiatives.
• Deep empathy for users dealing with stress, confusion, illness, uncertainty, and fragmented healthcare systems.
• A high bar for craft and a low-ego approach to feedback.

How we work

• High ownership - We are a small team building in uncharted territory. You will own outcomes, not screens. When something matters, you will take it from vague idea to shipped product.
• Clinical safety first - We move fast, but not recklessly. In healthcare, clarity, privacy, escalation, and user trust are core parts of the product experience.
• Direct feedback - We give clear, honest feedback and expect low-ego collaboration. The standard is high because the work matters.
• Obsessive craft - We care about the details: the wording of a response, the hierarchy of a warning, the timing of a follow-up, the feel of an interaction, and the trust a user feels in a vulnerable moment.
• Pragmatic AI - We do not build AI demos. We build product experiences that work in the real world, with measurable quality, clear failure modes, and fast iteration loops.

Why August

Healthcare systems around the world are overloaded. Millions of people are left alone with symptoms, reports, prescriptions, and uncertainty at exactly the moments when they need clarity most.

August is building AI that can be available in those moments: accurate, empathetic, clinically grounded, and increasingly capable of doing real clinical work with the right safety and oversight.

As a designer at August, you will not just design screens. You will shape how people understand and trust autonomous clinical AI. You will help define the product language, interaction patterns, design system, and user experience for a category that is still being invented.

You will join early enough to shape the culture and product direction, but late enough that your work will reach real users quickly.
