Eight roles live or verify-state. Strip the titles. Sort by the design problem the hire actually faces.
Trust, supervision, delegation surfaces (3): Brex, Amplitude, Vanta. The designer owns what happens when a user watches an agent act on their behalf. Your strongest portfolio-to-mandate match. Lead with Agentic Labs and the trust essay.
Platform governance, authoring, operational control (3): Capital One Card Servicing, Ambience Healthcare, Maven. The designer owns how complex systems stay coherent under clinical, financial, or operational pressure. Lead with Thermo Fisher or Alibaba.
Org-transformation mandate, not product surface (2): Capital One AI in XD, Headspace. "AI" here means changing how designers work, not designing AI products. Verify that the role touches product surfaces before investing outreach time. Headspace comp ($140K–$190K) is below floor.
Flag — Brex/Capital One: Brex is now a wholly-owned Capital One subsidiary (closed April 7, 2026). Three of your eight listings share one parent company. Role scores hold. Company equity-window scores shift — you are no longer evaluating pre-IPO equity upside at Brex. Your call on how much weight that carries.
Action filter: Before spending time on any listing, name its bucket. Bucket 1 first. Bucket 2 with a different lead case. Bucket 3 only after you confirm the role touches product.
Bucket 1 — trust/supervision/delegation:
- Brex Staff Product Designer, AI (16d) — Portfolio match: Carrier IQ — agentic automation in regulated finance; delegation and correction surfaces for consequential decisions
- Amplitude Head of Product Design (17d) — Portfolio match: Brand Pulse + Alibaba — live agent oversight design plus enterprise trust architecture at scale
- Vanta Head of Design (18d) — Portfolio match: Brand Pulse + Alibaba — agentic oversight for compliance workflows that must be auditable and repeatable
Bucket 2 — platform governance/operational control:
- Capital One Card Servicing Product Design Director (2d, fresh) — Portfolio match: Alibaba + Red Cross — multi-role platform coherence, complexity in the system not the interface
- Ambience Healthcare Staff Product Designer (date unconfirmed) — Portfolio match: Thermo Fisher + Red Cross — exception-first regulated systems where a wrong code is a compliance event
- Maven VP of Design (38d, extended — verify before tailoring) — Portfolio match: Thermo Fisher + Allē — regulated workflow plus dual-surface provider/member architecture
Bucket 3 — org-transformation, verify before investing:
- Capital One AI in XD Director, Product Design (4d) — Portfolio match: Alibaba — enterprise operating model, not product AI surface
- Headspace Staff AI Product Designer (4d) — Comp below floor ($140K–$190K); mandate is design-practice AI fluency, not agentic product ownership
