The Opportunity
You’ll be the first dedicated product designer at Texture, shaping how an entire industry transitions to modern software.
We’re building the operating system for the grid—the software layer that utilities, device manufacturers, grid operators, and everyday consumers use to manage and participate in distributed energy at scale. You’re not designing one product; you’re designing an ecosystem of interconnected surfaces for different users with different needs.
Surfaces You’ll Own
Dashboards & Analytics: Real-time operational views, performance metrics, system health
Maps & Physical World: Geographic visualization of device fleets, grid topology, location-aware workflows
Enterprise Tools: Complex workflows for operators managing incidents, dispatching commands, auditing activity
Consumer Experiences: Enrollment flows, device connection, onboarding that hides technical complexity
Service Design: End-to-end journeys across organizations, roles, and touchpoints
Real-Time Collaboration: Live cursors, multiplayer editing, and shared workspaces for multiple users
This is the kind of work that stretches you: data-dense interfaces that need to be fast and clear, AI-native workflows where humans and automation share responsibility, simple-feeling consumer experiences despite deep technical complexity, and enterprise tools where the stakes are real and the details matter.
What We're Looking For
A designer with exceptional taste and strong instincts who can own our product's design direction and ship high-quality work at the pace of a fast-moving team.
Responsibilities
Own end-to-end product design across multiple surfaces—from early concepts through detailed specs and implementation support
Design data-heavy interfaces including dashboards, tables, maps, and timelines that make complex systems understandable and actionable
Design AI-native experiences: conversational interfaces, intelligent suggestions, and workflows that blend human judgment with automation
Create consumer-facing flows: enrollment, device connection, and onboarding that feel simple despite technical complexity
Build and evolve our design system (140+ components and growing)
Ship fast with high standards—prototype quickly, make decisions, and deliver without endless iteration
You Might Thrive Here If You:
Want to own the whole thing, not just a slice
Move quickly and make decisions without waiting for perfect information
Are comfortable with ambiguity—can turn a half-formed problem into a great experience
Can shift between dense enterprise tools and simple consumer flows without losing quality
Collaborate deeply with product and engineering (not just handing off specs)
Are comfortable being customer-facing—talking to users, understanding their needs, and translating them into the right design
Care about craft, but care even more about shipping the right thing
Requirements
5+ years designing complex products, ideally B2B or enterprise
Strong systems thinking and excellent visual design
Proficiency in Figma and component-based design systems
Nice to Have
Experience with AI/ML products, copilot-style interfaces, or generative UI
Experience with developer tools, APIs, or platform products
Frontend familiarity (React, HTML/CSS)
Early-stage startup experience (0→1)
Experience in energy, utilities, or infrastructure software
Benefits
Competitive salary and benefits
Opportunity to work on cutting-edge projects in the energy sector
Collaborative and innovative work environment
Career growth and development opportunities
Location
New York City preferred. Flexible for the right candidate.
