AI is reshaping every software and design role, including this one. We've paused traditional applications for this role while we rethink what the work looks like at ColoredCow in the AI era. Tell me what you'd build, what you'd change, what you think we're missing.
And it isn't only the AI disruption. ColoredCow is at a stage where we need to scale — on the back of the work and experience we've gathered over all these years — and so what we want from this role has grown with it: not a pair of hands that only executes, but someone who understands the business behind the work, who can see a client's real problem, help us win and hold the engagement, and stand behind delivery with the stability, portfolio, and years that ColoredCow carries. If that's you, tell me how you'd help us win the work, not just do it. We read every note that engages with the question.

Looking for a UI/UX Designer role at ColoredCow?
You arrived here looking for a UI/UX Designer position. We want to be straight with you: we paused this role earlier this year to rethink it for the AI era, and we’ve now split it into two more specific roles.
When this posting was first written, “UI/UX Designer” covered everything — research, interaction design, visual execution, prototyping, design systems. AI has changed what scarce skill actually means in this work. Production design — layouts, variations, visual exploration — has compressed dramatically with tools like v0, Claude, Figma AI, Stitch, UX Pilot. What stays scarce, and what we hire for, is design judgment: which design to produce, why this direction, and whether it moves the business outcome our clients actually care about. So the role split.
Which of the two fits depends on where you are in your career:
- Founding Designer — senior/experienced track (3-7 years). Builds the design function from scratch alongside the founder. Sets the frame, doesn’t operate inside one someone else built. ₹10-15L per annum, Gurgaon (with hillside office options).
- Product Designer (Junior + Internship) — junior + stipended internship track. UX and product execution alongside the design function lead, with AI-augmented design from Day 1. ₹5-8L per annum (junior) or ₹15-25K/month + relocation supplement (internship).
If neither is exactly what you’re looking for — your work is heavy on a specialty we haven’t named, you’re between career stages, or you have a perspective on how design at ColoredCow should evolve that doesn’t fit either posting — drop us a note at
[email protected] with your portfolio and a one-line read on where you’d want to land. We’re not promising a custom role, but we read every note that takes the time to be specific.
Either way, thanks for considering ColoredCow.

We're rethinking this role.
AI is rewriting what software and design work looks like — what gets automated, what becomes scarce, what kinds of judgment matter. Every role on our team is going through this rethink, including this one.
We're treating it as an prospect. Roles aren't disappearing; they're being rebuilt around AI-native thinking, real judgment, and craft that AI can't replicate.
While we're doing that work, we've paused traditional applications for this role.
If you have a point of view on how this function should evolve in the AI era — or want to help us build it — I'd genuinely like to hear from you.
Tell me what you'd build, what you'd change, what you think we're missing.
Before you write, see what we read and what we quietly pass on. We read every note that engages with the question.
