AI Designer [Portugal]
About the Role
- This is a hybrid creator role: someone who combines a strong foundation in visual design (UI + digital art) with advanced expertise in AI tools to accelerate concept creation, UI exploration, and asset production without compromising quality or consistency.
- The ideal candidate is not just generating visuals, but shaping product-ready design solutions through a combination of manual skill, structured thinking, and AI-driven workflows.
- This role is office-based for Lisbon, Portugal.
- If you need to be relocated, the company takes care of the process.
What You'll Be Doing
- Use AI tools (Stable Diffusion, Krea, Nano Banana, etc.) to generate UI concepts, visual directions, UI components, and supporting assets.
- Translate product ideas, wireframes, or briefs into strong visual outputs using structured prompts and workflows.
- Explore multiple stylistic directions quickly to support product and brand decisions.
- Create quick sketches, wireframes, or visual drafts (by hand or in Figma) to guide AI-driven generation.
- Iterate fast on concepts, layouts, and compositions before finalizing directions.
- Work across different visual styles and adapt them to product needs.
- Clean, refine, and enhance AI-generated outputs to reach production-ready quality.
- Fix inconsistencies in UI logic, composition, lighting, typography, and details.
- Ensure all visuals meet Design Systems and usability standards.
- Build cohesive UI concepts, visual systems, and style directions.
- Ensure consistency across screens, components, and product experiences.
- Align visuals with brand identity while evolving it when needed.
- Polish designs to a high level of quality, paying attention to micro-interactions, spacing, hierarchy, and visual clarity.
- Bridge the gap between “nice AI output” and real, usable product design.
