Job Description

What we’re looking for:

We’re looking for a skilled practitioner with significant experience in delivering service design projects. The focus of your role will be to create end-to-end, evidence-based designs for services which are inclusive and accessible. You’ll be working with multidisciplinary teams on complex projects where autonomy and project management will be important.

We’re on the hunt for someone who will champion our values: to care passionately, be fluent in people, believe in your craft, push convention, be open to change, and to value each other.

We work with a broad range of clients, some of whom are completely new to user-centred design (UCD). This means you’ll also play a key role in championing our UCD approach.

The role may also involve:

• Leading and directing projects – You’ll lead multidisciplinary teams and clients in the pursuit of inclusive, accessible and effective services.
• Team support and management – You’ll help to support the service design team by inspiring and line managing team members, including overseeing appraisals and professional development.
• Defining and refining practice – You’ll help to define the way our disciplines work together, and progress the way NEC Digital Studio delivers inclusive, accessible, and effective design.
• Supporting new business – You’ll help NEC Digital Studio identify and win projects by spotting opportunities with clients and helping with proposals and pitches.

How we work:

We work with central and local government, the NHS, voluntary, not-for-profit and private sector organisations.  We work hand-in-hand with our clients and sometimes we’re embedded in their teams for projects.

Beyond individual projects, NEC Digital Studio’s Service Designers support each other at weekly meet-ups where we share our work, discuss its wider implications, and learn about methods.

You’ll also broaden your skills by working closely with members of our Digital teams, including interaction and content designers, and developers.

All of our Service Designers are supported by more senior members of the Service Design team. They look after your wellbeing, help you set goals and objectives and provide feedback to help you grow.

Qualifications

Your skills and experience:

We’d like to hear from you if you have skills or experience in some of these areas:

• Strategy & systems thinking – Familiar with systems thinking, you lead teams and clients to map and analyse strategies, systems and scenarios. You’re experienced in forming well-grounded strategic recommendations.
• Research – You work with user researchers to uncover and articulate the key factors affecting the service and its use.
• User-centred journeys & experiences - You choose the right approaches to lead projects to outcomes that are great for the user, feasible to implement, and fit the client’s strategic vision.
• Facilitation - You lead teams to design and deliver engaging and effective workshops. You support colleagues to present, verbally communicate, and inspire clients, stakeholders and other colleagues.
• Organisation design – You understand the importance of org-design approaches and their role in implementing effective services
• Visual communication - You lead teams to make clear and compelling points through well-designed visuals. This may include drawing and sketching or graphic communication
• Written communication - You guide teams on the most appropriate written formats and structures for each project.  You create and oversee clear, concise writing.
• Recommendation & implementation - You work with stakeholders to identify what change is possible and how to bring it about. This includes outlining timeframes and resource implications, and identifying future phases of work.
• Prototyping - You lead teams, clients and stakeholders to scope targeted prototyping exercises. You work across disciplines to design, build and test prototypes that contribute to project outcomes (online and offline).
• Stakeholder management – you know how to negotiate and guide clients and stakeholders towards positive outcomes that deliver outcomes within budget.
• Managing complexity and ambiguity – Services are complex and messy! You’re up for leaping into the unknown, supporting our team members and clients to navigate the uncertainty that comes with service transformation projects
• Proactive and autonomous – you can lead the conversation, and look for ways to participate and add value
• GDS (government digital service) principles - you have knowledge and experience of designing services in-line with these principles and may have been involved in service assessments

• Private Medical Cover funded by NEC for Employees (with the option to add family members at an additional cost)

Headquarters: Remote - United States

About Vercel:

Vercel is the agentic infrastructure company, freeing people and agents to ship what's next. For more than a decade we've helped builders move from idea to production with speed, security, and exceptional developer experience.

Now we're scaling our products for both agents and people to ship and run software, built in the open and trusted by OpenAI, PayPal, Ramp, Supreme, and millions of developers worldwide.

About the Role:

AI Gateway gives developers one place to connect applications and agents to hundreds of models with one API key. It handles provider routing and fallbacks, unifies billing and observability, and lets teams manage spend and security controls across production AI workloads.

Designing this well is a systems problem. A developer should be able to choose the right model, make and verify a first request, diagnose a failed request, and configure routing, budgets, credentials, and security controls without losing sight of the application they are trying to build. The right interface might be in the dashboard, on the public model catalog, in the CLI, in an API response, or in code.

You will be the Design Engineer for AI Gateway, owning product design and frontend implementation across those surfaces. You will work with customers, a Product Manager, and engineers to understand the problem, explore solutions, build the production experience, ship it, and learn from what happens after launch.

AI Gateway is live, the model ecosystem changes every week, and the team can move from an observed problem to production quickly. This is a rare chance to use your product judgment, design craft, and code to shape a developer product and ship the experience yourself.

You will be the design owner embedded with a Product Manager and a dedicated engineering team. You will also have the Product Design team around you for critique, collaboration, and support. AI Gateway will be your main product area, with room to pursue design-led improvements across Vercel. You will report to the Design Team.

If you’re based within a pre-determined commuting distance of one of our offices (SF, NY, London, or Berlin), the role includes in-office anchor days on Monday, Tuesday, and Friday. If you're located beyond that distance, the role is fully remote. For location-specific details, please connect with our recruiting team.

What You Will Do:

• Own product design and frontend implementation for meaningful parts of the journey from discovering a model to making a first successful request and operating AI in production.
• Design and build production experiences across the website, dashboard, CLI, and APIs, choosing the right medium for each problem.
• Make models, providers, credentials, routing, budgets, logs, performance, privacy, and governance understandable, then create patterns that extend across new providers, modalities, and workloads.
• Talk directly with customers and use product data to understand problems, define success, make tradeoffs, and improve what ships.
• Own quality after launch, including visual and interaction craft, accessibility, performance, resilience, instrumentation, and edge cases.
• Use coding agents to explore and implement ideas quickly, while testing, debugging, and taking responsibility for what ships.

About You:

• Your work shows what you personally identified, designed, built, shipped, and learned after launch.
• You build production-quality web applications with React and TypeScript and can contribute confidently in a large, existing codebase.
• You bring strong visual and interaction craft and have made technical or data-rich products understandable without removing the control advanced users need.
• You can move between graphical interfaces, CLI workflows, API behavior, and implementation details, treating accessibility, performance, failure recovery, and instrumentation as part of the design.
• You use customer research and product data to make decisions, communicate your reasoning clearly, challenge ideas constructively, and change direction when the evidence changes.
• You use coding agents in your daily work, but you can explain, test, debug, and take responsibility for the code they help produce.

There is no required path into this role. You may come from product design, frontend engineering, creative development, or a career that does not fit a standard title. We care about the quality of what you have shipped and the judgment behind it.

Bonus If You:

• Have experience with developer tools, infrastructure products, model marketplaces, or observability experiences.
• Have worked with AI models, providers, inference platforms, guardrails, or AI application tooling.
• Have experience with APIs, command-line tools, structured product content, or agent-facing interfaces.
• Have built an application or agent with Vercel’s AI SDK or AI Gateway.

• AI Gateway documentation
• Browse AI models
• AI model leaderboards

Compensation & Benefits:

• Competitive compensation package, including equity.
• Inclusive Healthcare Package.
• Learn and Grow - we provide mentorship and send you to events that help you build your network and skills.
• Flexible Time Off.
• We will provide you the gear you need to do your role, and a WFH budget for you to outfit your space as needed.

The San Francisco, CA base pay range for this role is $208,000 - $312,000. Actual salary will be based on job-related skills, experience, and location. Compensation outside of San Francisco may be adjusted based on employee location. The total compensation package may include benefits, equity-based compensation, and eligibility for a company bonus or variable pay program depending on the role. Your recruiter can share more details during the hiring process.

We do not discriminate on the basis of race, religion, color, gender expression or identity, sexual orientation, national origin, citizenship, age, marital status, veteran status, disability status, or any other characteristic protected by law.
