Raison is on a mission to provide humans with better skills so they can feel confident and have more opportunities in the AI era. We help companies make sure 100% their teams master AI, directly in the flow of work (Teams, Slack) so that AI knowledge spreads across the organization instead of pooling in a handful of champions.

We are passionate entrepreneurs believing that the ongoing AI revolution should be shared by all employees; and that the future of corporate interactions should not be restricted to private human-machine chats. Raison is capturing what champions create with AI, turning it into shared, governed skills, and propagating them so everyone feels capable and empowered; acting as a powerful lever to accelerate the AI transformation of corporates.

We recently raised €2m from a top French VC + BPI and a selection of high-profile business angels who believe AI mastery is the highest-leverage application of AI inside companies.

Tasks

User Research & Discovery

• Own field research: contextual inquiry, user interviews, and observation of how teams actually work with AI and where it breaks.
• Build and maintain a deep understanding of our core users — individual contributors, champions, managers, and corporate buyers — and the context they operate in.
• Synthesize messy field data into sharp, actionable insight: jobs-to-be-done, adoption blockers, and the conditions under which a skill transfers between people.
• Establish a continuous discovery habit so research is a foundational reflex, and champion the user's perspective in every product decision.

Product & Experience Design

• What our experts do by hand today is the spec for what the product must automate tomorrow. Your job is to watch that closely enough to design it.
• Design the surfaces: the client dashboard execs present to their board, the internal console our experts use to run a dozen live communities at once, and the conversations themselves.
• Most of our product lives inside someone else's client. You are designing in Teams and Slack, not screens we control — no onboarding, no landing page, no second chance. A four-minute message to an accountant who has never opened Copilot is the hardest design problem we have.
• Work mostly on enterprise, and partly on higher education, where we also have live deployments. Two audiences, two vocabularies, one product: part of your job is deciding what stays shared and what has to differ, so we build one coherent system rather than two half-products.
• Work hand-in-hand with our AI product engineers so your field learnings ship as features, then get re-tested at the next pilot.
• Own the design system: components, tokens, patterns, and the copy that goes with them.

Requirements

• 4–8 years in product design, UX design, or a hybrid design-research role, ideally on complex, multi-user B2B products.
• A strong portfolio that shows both craft and thinking: we want to see how you operated, not just what shipped.
• A skilled researcher who can design a study, run it in the wild, and turn qualitative chaos into clear direction.
• Experience designing inside environments you don't control - a messaging client, an extension, an embedded product - or a clear appetite for it.
• Comfortable designing for AI-driven and adaptive experiences, where the interface has to handle uncertainty, personalization, and non-linear workflows.
• Excellent visual and interaction design skills: typography, spacing, motion, and the small details that build trust.
• Autonomous and opinionated, but you hold your opinions loosely when the evidence says otherwise.
• Genuine curiosity about AI and how people actually learn at work.
• Fluent in French and English, spoken and written. Spanish is a plus.
• You want the ownership, equity, and career-defining challenge that only comes from being early.
• Bonus: deeply passionate about something outside of work.

Benefits

• A founding role with equity and direct influence on company strategy.

• Competitive salary, benchmarked to the Paris startup ecosystem.

• Flexibility: remote-friendly with regular in-person collaboration in Paris and an office in Montmartre with a beautiful Sacré-Coeur view.

• A front-row seat to one of the most important shifts in how humans learn.

• A small, sharp team that ships fast and trusts each other to figure things out.

• If you care deeply about making powerful tools feel human and want to shape a product from the very beginning, this is your role. Apply now and help us build the future of learning.

• Raison is an equal opportunity employer. We welcome applicants of all backgrounds and are committed to building a diverse, inclusive team.
