Senior Product Designer

About Lawhive

Our mission is to make the law accessible to everyone.

The legal industry is built on technology and processes that haven’t been updated in hundreds of years - that's why we've reinvented the entire model from the ground up with our own bespoke AI operating system at the core.

Lawhive is a regulated law firm with an AI-native platform built to amplify expertise and revolutionise the way people practice law, leading to exceptional outcomes for clients and lawyers.

Lawhive Labs is how we bring this vision to life. It's our frontier lab that combines top engineering, design, AI and legal talent from around the world, joining forces to build the future of law.

We’re backed by top-tier investors, including Google Ventures, Balderton Capital and TQ Ventures, and in early 2026, we secured $60M Series B funding round to facilitate international expansion and to grow our team.

We’re headquartered in London and in 2025 successfully launched in the US…and we’re just getting started.

The Role

We’re hiring a Senior Product Designer to help build our platform and suite of AI products. You’ll be an individual contributor with strong UX, UI and visual design fundamentals, comfortable shipping real products fast, and deeply curious about how design and technology intersect.

• Deep expert in Figma and modern design and developer tooling

• Proven experience researching, prototyping and validating ideas quickly

• Comfortable in fast-paced, high-growth product teams

• Able to operate at both strategic and execution level

• Experience building products used by large, real-world audiences
