Design Technologist

Mithrl is building the world's first commercially available AI Co-Scientist for drug discovery. As a Design Technologist, you will bridge design and engineering to create functional products that enhance how researchers interact with complex biological data systems.

Responsibilities:

• Bridge Design and Code: Partner closely with a small team of product designers to transform high-level concepts into elegant, functional products used by thousands of researchers every day
• Own Complex Frontend Surfaces: Lead frontend initiatives for our most technically demanding product areas, including knowledge graph visualizations, ontology explorers, and AI-native query interfaces
• Build Advanced Prototypes: Create high-fidelity, interactive prototypes that leverage real biological data and APIs to test complex interactions and AI-driven workflows. Your prototypes need to hold up under production conditions
• Shape Architectural Decisions: Participate in technical planning, code reviews, and ongoing platform evolution. You will influence how we think about our UI architecture across EOS (our enterprise product) and Finn (our self-serve platform)
• Establish Patterns: Lead frontend initiatives that set the standard for our UI design system, ensuring our product remains performant, accessible, and scalable across both products
• Evolve Our Design System: Contribute to and maintain a robust design system. Develop reusable components that ensure visual and brand consistency across our entire platform
• Innovate with AI: Experiment with emerging AI tools and techniques to accelerate our design-to-code pipeline. We use AI aggressively in our own internal workflows and expect you to push what is possible here
• Collaborate Cross-Functionally: Work closely with engineering and product leaders to ensure that design intent is preserved from discovery through deployment
