💡 The Challenge

Prosper AI is redefining how people find jobs and how companies hire—by replacing traditional job boards with a smarter, AI-powered platform. The mission was to make job searching faster, easier, and more aligned for both candidates and employers through a clean, intuitive experience.

When I joined, Prosper had no visual identity or product direction. I was responsible for building the brand, designing the platform experience, and helping the team scale after funding.

🎯 My Role

As Lead Designer, I worked from the ground up:

Brand Development: Designed Prosper’s logo, colors, typography, and full visual identity—aimed at approachability and trust.

UX/UI Design: Built the product's initial UX for both job seekers and recruiters, focusing on clarity, simplicity, and fast interactions.

Website & Marketing: Designed the public-facing site joinprosper.ai and pitch decks used for fundraising and growth.

Team Scaling: Helped onboard and mentor new designers post-funding, and led design system development to maintain consistency.

🔍 Product Overview

Prosper helps users:

🧠 Reflection

Prosper challenged me to design for dual personas—job seekers and recruiters—while maintaining simplicity in a highly functional tool. Starting as the only designer gave me the space to define the foundation, while growing the team taught me how to scale systems and mentor others.

If I had more time, I’d love to expand into motion and onboarding design to help new users instantly understand Prosper’s value.
