About Katapult Labs
Katapult is an AI-first engineering studio connecting senior LATAM talent with startups and companies in the US. We're not a staff-augmentation shop: every person we put in front of a client represents Katapult, co-creates product, and owns the outcome directly, with no managers or leads acting as a layer in between.
The Role
We're looking for a Designer to join the founding team behind one of our partners, an early-stage consumer product aiming to become a real tech company with a strong visual and cultural identity. This is a part-time engagement for someone with sharp aesthetic instincts and genuine creative range, someone who has moved beyond just executing and can bring a point of view to the product's look, feel, and voice.
You'll work closely with the product lead and full-stack builder to shape an experience that feels polished, engaging, and culturally relevant, especially around social and video content. This role suits someone who has grown into a creative director type of profile: strategic, well organized, highly professional, and deeply tuned into what makes content and products go viral.
Key Responsibilities
Design the core visual identity and user experience for an early-stage consumer product
Partner closely with the product lead to translate product decisions into polished design
Bring strong instincts around virality, social content, and video-first design trends
Maintain a professional, organized, and highly responsive way of working within a fast-moving founding team
Requirements
Advanced conversational English, since all collaboration happens in English
Strong design portfolio showing high-quality, aesthetically polished consumer product work
Proven experience in UI/UX design, with a strong understanding of user flows, interface design, usability, and interaction patterns
Experience or clear instinct for virality, social platforms, and video content design
Creative director-level maturity: able to bring a point of view, not just execute instructions
Comfortable working with AI design platforms and tools (e.g. Claude Design) to accelerate and elevate the design process
Highly professional, organized, and reliable, with strong follow-through
Nice to Have
Background in AI-assisted video or content design
Experience designing for consumer social or entertainment products
Prior work as a creative director or in a similar leadership design role
Work-Life Balance
Work from Anywhere in Latin America: Enjoy the freedom to work remotely from any country in Latin America.
23 Days of PTO per Year: Take time to recharge with paid time off, accrued monthly (1.91 days/month).
USA Federal Holidays
Financial Benefits
Monthly Payment in USD: Get paid in US dollars, no matter where you are.
Contractor Agreement with No End Date: Enjoy the stability of a long-term contract.
