You will own design end-to-end for a breakthrough music platform, bridging the gap between a pro-grade studio tool and a viral consumer creator product. Working alongside the founders in London, you’ll leverage AI-native workflows to ship branding, design systems, and frontend code that defines the future of musical expression.
Founding Designer at Mozart AI
Are you a designer who actually makes music? This Balderton-backed startup is seeking a Founding Designer to own the identity of a platform making studio-quality music creation as universal as listening. You'll move beyond static mockups to ship real frontend code using AI-native tools, building a brand that appeals to both casual creators and pro producers. With up to 0.8% equity and a mission to redefine a multi-billion dollar creative industry, this is the chance to lead design at a 10-person team moving at extreme velocity. If you're a high-output generalist who lives in Figma and Cursor, this role is for you.

Role overview
Mozart is building a world where everyone can feel the joy of creating music, socially. Our customers range from grandmas using Vibe sessions to Grammy winners using the Studio. Music is entering its first explosive moment of creation-driven consumption, and we want to shape that world while preserving the social, fun side of music creation. We’ve raised over $7m from Balderton Capital (backers of Revolut) and Silicon Valley legends like Kevin Hartz, Emery Wells, backers of Uber, Spotify, etc.
Backed by EWOR, New Renaissance Ventures, Atlantis Ventures, Felix Jahn, Stefan Glaenzer.
What you will do
- Execute a full consumer rebrand and ship a unified design system across product, marketing, and motion within your first 60 days.
- Run at least four design-led cohort experiments per month, using data and first-principles thinking to drive signups, activation, and paid conversions.
- Directly bridge the design-to-code gap by writing React and Tailwind CSS, ensuring every pixel in production perfectly matches your high-fidelity interactive prototypes.
Who this is a fit for
- A consumer-focused designer with a portfolio of emotional, high-engagement brands (e.g., Spotify, Instagram) rather than B2B SaaS or administrative dashboards.
- An AI-native power user who treats tools like Cursor and Claude as a core part of their design discipline to ship frontend code and interactive prototypes quickly.
- A musician, producer, or beatmaker who speaks the language of creators and possesses deep intuition for what makes music-making tools feel fun and approachable.

Why this role is remarkable
- Join a tier-1 venture-backed team (Balderton) as the first design hire, owning up to 0.8% equity and defining the entire visual and creative identity of the brand.
- Solve a unique dual-mode design challenge, building a product that serves both “tourist” casual creators and professional bedroom producers without compromising on power or accessibility.
- Ship at extreme velocity using an AI-native toolchain (Cursor, Claude Code), where your designs move from Figma to production in hours rather than weeks.
