Afresh, the AI platform for grocery, began by tackling the most complex problem in the industry: fresh, and has evolved into the core AI platform for grocers.
By leveraging proprietary AI designed for high-volatility environments, we empower partners like Albertsons, Meijer, and Wakefern to drive smarter decisions across their entire enterprise.
Following record-breaking 70% revenue growth in 2025, we have scaled to 6 enterprise-grade solutions, with solutions live in over 10% of the U.S. grocery market. Our platform now orchestrates billions of decisions from the store floor to the distribution center and prevented over 200 million pounds of food waste last year alone.
If you're looking for a role where your work directly translates into massive scale and social good, and you want to be part of the team that defines how the world eats, there is no better time to join us.
As the Sr. Product Designer for the Ordering team, you'll own the end-to-end experience for a web application used by corporate users who own the grocery replenishment function across tens of thousands of departments nationwide. You'll turn complex AI-driven forecasts into decisions these operators can act on with confidence. You'll work closely with product management, machine learning engineers, and mobile and full-stack engineers to create a holistic end-to-end experience. Your ownership, attention to detail, and your focus on outcomes will directly result in less food waste and real business value.
What You'll Do- Own end-to-end design for a web application for corporate users who own the grocery replenishment function, spanning ordering, exceptions, configuration, and performance.
- Design reporting, insights, and performance dashboards, from table stakes today toward conversational, AI-powered analytics.
- Design exception-based workflows and controls (ordering, display size, configuration, order policy tuning) that let corporate users manage operations without technical depth.
- Shape agentic and conversational experiences that surface AI-powered insights to less-technical customers.
- Own shared portal services UX (admin, permissions, authorization, multi-role) that no single team owns today.
- Build reusable components and keep UX consistent across portal surfaces.
- Ship quickly with the Ordering product and engineering teams using modern AI-assisted tools, and partner with design leadership on cross-product coherence.
The following represent the skills and experience our ideal candidate possesses. We encourage all highly-qualified candidates to apply, even if they do not fulfill all the listed criteria.
- Senior-level product design experience shipping customer-facing software with measurable outcomes.
- Deep enterprise SaaS experience, navigating complex systems and multiple tiers of users.
- Product-minded with engineering overlap, comfortable building directly in code rather than handing off static mockups. We think of this as a "design-focused PM or product-focused designer with engineering depth."
- Strong systems thinking: reusable patterns and coherent navigation across products and surfaces.
- Comfort with modern, AI-assisted tooling for exploration, prototyping, and synthesis. Experience with rapidly creating prototypes using generative coding tools.
- Excellent communication and collaboration across product, engineering, and design.
- Experience designing for AI-powered products: conversational interfaces, anomaly detection, and agentic workflows.
- Experience designing multi-role, permissions-based, or hierarchical enterprise experiences.
