About the role

Wordsmith is building the legal operations platform for in-house teams to unify workflows and improve efficiency. The role focuses on designing and implementing end-to-end product experiences that blend design and code, with emphasis on AI-assisted and complex legal workflows.

Responsibilities

  • Design and build the UX and UI: the flows, components, and interactions that simplify complex legal workflows
  • Rapidly prototype new concepts in code to validate ideas before committing to a full build
  • Bridge design and engineering: turn designs into shipped code, and push design forward through technical craft
  • Own the quality of UI implementation across the product, from pixel-perfect execution to the small interactions that make it feel alive
  • Help define product direction, frame ambiguous problems, and design the end-to-end flows behind the interface
  • Contribute to the design system and component libraries that let the team ship faster
  • Use AI as part of how you work, to explore, prototype, and think past traditional UX and UI patterns

Qualifications

  • You can shape the direction of projects and bring people with you. You've earned the trust of engineers, PMs, and senior stakeholders before, and you know how to move a team without holding a mandate
  • You can build and ship your own front-end (TypeScript, React, CSS, animation). AI writes a lot of it now, so the real bar is taste and judgment: knowing what good looks like and getting it the last 10%
  • You're self-sufficient: you can take a problem from ambiguity to shipped experience on your own, no hand-holding required
  • You have an eye for detail and care deeply about craft, in the flows and logic as much as the pixels
  • You finish what you start: polished and shipped, not left at good enough
  • You move fast, prototyping ideas in hours, not days
  • You think in systems and build reusable, maintainable UI
  • You're excited about AI and want to help define new interaction paradigms for an entire industry

Benefits
