Clove's founders, Anna and Sam, started Clove after experiencing the problem firsthand while building and growing Canva from launch into a global unicorn.

Clove is venture backed by world-class VC funds and angel investors including Blackbird Ventures (Aus), SHAKTI VC (US), and the founders of Canva and Google Maps.

Clove is a seed stage company – growing fast in the US, Europe and beyond.

About the role

Ready for the biggest role of your career? As a Founding Senior Product Designer, you'll drive the vision behind Clove's next product chapter, with a focus on agentic workflows.

This is a rare brief: agentic consumer design has no playbook yet. You'll help define what it looks like when AI actually runs a household kitchen – combining beautifully simple product experiences with intuitive AI technology.

The role is equal parts systems thinking and world-class consumer design. The right candidate will balance both, becoming the champion of exceptionally high design standards at Clove.

This is a 0-1 role that requires flexing across a range of design disciplines, ahead of building out our design team as we grow and scale.

The role

- Own the end-to-end product vision of Clove. Own the big picture experience and the little details, being the custodian of our world class product design standards.
- Design and dream the future. You'll spend time exploring the future – what technology is possible and how it can simplify everyday problems. Your job is to bring that future to millions of home cooks worldwide.
- Bridge the gap between vision and execution.



Work closely with founders to translate vision and company goals into thoughtful designs — and create clarity for the engineering team to bring them to life.
- Design agentic workflows. You'll be designing a world-first agentic vision – a product that driven workflows on users behalf. You'll deeply understand the mechanics behind the features, and directly build system prompts and agentic logic.
- Empathy led design. You'll regularly speak to customers through support and interviews, and ensure a transparent feedback loop back to the team building the product.
- Own a range of design projects. Design across product, marketing and brand — leaning into different areas as priorities change. You'll be the champion of what feels like Clove, and communicate it internally and to the world.

About you

- 5+ years designing consumer products, with a portfolio that shows both systems thinking and exceptional visual design standards.
- You're technically versed and genuinely interested in agentic systems — you've worked with LLMs and can designs systems, not just screens / brands.
- You communicate design decisions clearly and persuasively, bringing day-to-day clarity for engineers.
- You thrive in fast-paced environments, working autonomously and embracing ambiguity — you know when to keep it simple and when to go deep.
- You have a low ego and are impact driven, setting the tone for Clove's design discipline as we grow.
- Bonus: you have an interest in cooking and food!
