Board Status

Board clear — no qualifying roles this cycle

Direct-source scan across seven priority companies in enterprise customer-ops agents, healthcare AI, legal AI, and AI infrastructure. No Director+ design leadership roles on any verified careers page or ATS board.

One near-miss: Abridge posted a Director, Product Design – Core Product role in February. It is confirmed closed at 132 days. The Rundown Jobs resurfaced it this week with a "1d ago" timestamp. Scraper artifact, not a repost. Ignore it.

Harvey's Ashby board rendered JavaScript-only and could not be fully read. No listing surfaced through aggregator cross-reference, but Harvey carries a verification gap into the next cycle.

Juno — nothing here requires your attention today. July 4th week starts Friday; hiring-side activity will thin out through the holiday. Stay on active outreach. Do not detour into job-board scanning.

Next Scan Priorities

Six companies carry the strongest signal density for a Director+ design role surfacing soon. None has a confirmed posting at your level today. Two need direct verification before they can be classified or dismissed.

Abridge and Ambience Healthcare are the open questions. Abridge has two live design roles with ambiguous titles. Ambience's Ashby page wouldn't render, leaving 24 open roles unclassified. Glean has a stray Glassdoor fragment that reads like Director-level scope but doesn't match anything on its own Greenhouse board.

Sierra, Harvey, and Fireworks AI are clean negatives for now, all scaling fast enough that a posting could appear inside a single hiring cycle. Holiday week may slow new listings through July 7. Cards ordered by verification urgency.

Healthcare AI

Abridge: Two Design Roles, Titles Still Ambiguous

Top verification priority. Ashby lists "Product Design" (CA/NYC/SF, hybrid). Levels.fyi shows "Design Imagineer" posted 17 days ago, $217K–$255K. Neither title confirms Director+. Job descriptions need a direct read before classifying or dismissing. $5.3B valuation, rapid health-system adoption.

Healthcare AI

Ambience Healthcare: Ashby Page Won't Render

JavaScript-only Ashby page returned no extractable role list. ZipRecruiter confirms 24 open roles with active Head-level hiring across functions (Chief of Staff, Head of National Strategic Accounts). Design roles invisible until a full browser pass. $243M raise, 201–500 employees, remote-friendly.

Enterprise Agent

Glean: Glassdoor Fragment Reads Like Director Mandate

Greenhouse confirms three design roles, all IC or Senior IC. A Glassdoor snippet references "Lead AI Products design strategy" in language consistent with Director-level scope. That fragment doesn't appear on Greenhouse. One targeted search should resolve it. $4.6B, Sequoia-backed.

Enterprise Agent

Sierra: Zero Design Roles at $15B Valuation

$950M Series E. Kraken partnership (June 11) opens 70M utility accounts as a new vertical. Ashby and sierra.ai/careers show no design postings at any level. Engineering-driven, flat hierarchy. At this funding scale the gap between nothing and a Head of Design post is one quarter.

Legal AI

Harvey: Active Design Hiring, IC Only So Far

Staff Product Designer confirmed on Ashby. IC role focused on AI output interfaces and trust design. No Director+ posting. Design function is growing at $11B valuation, 1,500+ customers across 60 countries. Worth watching for a leadership layer to appear above the IC hires.

AI Infrastructure

Fireworks AI: Design Function Still Nascent at $4B

One IC Product Designer on Built In. Greenhouse skews heavily engineering. Head-level titles exist at the company (Head of Marketing Operations) but not in design. AI inference infrastructure play. Lower urgency for now. Periodic checks warranted as the platform layer matures and needs a face.
