Substack's model, based on direct subscriptions, has fueled an explosion of independent publishing. It empowers creators with economic autonomy, creative ownership, and a direct connection to their most engaged audiences. Product Design with Engineering Characteristics Substack is looking for a Product Designer with -to borrow a phrase from an unlikely source- “engineering characteristics.” By this we mean someone with interest in and experience with the implementation of user interfaces in code, and especially someone capable and keen with LLMs and all the ways they can help design and development. What matters for this role is less mastery of a specific language, for example, than familiarity with software production processes and tools and the drive to go deeper. We're a team looking to exploit LLMs to make our work faster and better; some of us are quite technical, some of us are absolute novices to development, and we're interested in the full range of applications of LLMs, from prototyping to straight-up owning front-end. Because the rate of change is so high, we don't feel confident about the exact skills or experiences that will
