About Us

Constructor is the next-generation platform for search and discovery in ecommerce, built to explicitly optimize for metrics like revenue, conversion rate, and profit. Our search engine is entirely invented in-house utilizing transformers and generative LLMs, and we use its core and personalization capabilities to power everything from search itself to recommendations to shopping agents. Engineering is by far our largest department, and we've built our proprietary engine to be the best on the market, having never lost an A/B test to a competitive technology. We're passionate about maintaining this and work on the bleeding edge of AI to do so.

Out of necessity, our engine is built for extreme scale and powers over 1 billion queries every day across 150 languages and roughly 100 countries. It is used by some of the biggest ecommerce companies in the world like Sephora, Under Armour, and Petco.

We're a passionate team who love solving problems and want to make our customers' and coworkers' lives better. We value empathy, openness, curiosity, continuous improvement, and are excited by metrics that matter. We believe that empowering everyone in a company to do what they do best can lead to great things.

Constructor is a U.S. based company that has been in the market since 2019. It was founded by Eli Finkelshteyn and Dan McCormick who still lead the company today.

About You

You're a product designer who owns problems, not screens. You're comfortable with ambiguity, can partner with PMs to shape direction, and know how to translate research insights into production-ready interfaces, working closely with engineers. You ship work that matters.

The Team

Our AI Agent Tools team is building a new category of e-commerce experience: intelligent agents that guide shoppers, learn from merchandiser expertise, and drive real business outcomes. This is one of the most consequential design problems in retail right now, and it's wide open.

Requirements

The Role

You'll be designing the future of product discovery: the moment a shopper goes from intent to purchase, reimagined through AI.

• You'll define what agentic shopping looks like - Not just chatbots bolted onto search, but genuinely new interaction patterns where AI understands what a shopper wants and helps them get there. There's no established playbook here. The patterns you set will shape how the rest of the industry approaches it.
• You'll shape how merchandisers control it - You will collaborate with Agent Orchestrators-professionals blending data analysis, design, and shopper psychology-to design the dashboard tools that allow them to configure, train, and optimize new shopping journeys without engineering support.
• You'll prove it works in the real world - From running UI experiments on live retailer sites to validating new shopping experiences with actual shopper data, your designs ship and get measured.

What You'll Own

• Research & validation - Conducting shopper research and running experiments alongside product and data teams to validate hypotheses with real input.
• Interaction design for agentic experiences - Mapping novel user flows where AI/LLMs drive the shopping journey, for both shoppers and the merchandisers who orchestrate them.
• Visual strategy - Defining a bold design direction that represents what product discovery looks like in 2027.
• High-fidelity delivery - Producing final mockups and assets across key surfaces: homepage, search, PDP, filtering, guided shopping, and agent configuration.
• UX patterns - Ensuring designs scale within Constructor's evolving design system and component library.

What We Value Beyond Craft

Beyond being a thoughtful designer, user advocate, and strong collaborator, here are a few things we really value:

• A goal-oriented, iterative mindset - You focus on solving high-impact problems and are comfortable learning, improving, and shipping quickly.
• Practical experience with research - You've led user interviews, usability tests, and data analysis.
• Experience designing for unfamiliar problems - You've worked on products where you had to understand complex workflows outside your own experience-especially in B2B contexts.
• Systems thinking - You spot patterns, define systems, and design scalable, reusable solutions.
