Founding UI/UX Designer at Ascend
Dallas / Remote · Contract/Intern (Part-time) · Equity + Salary
Ascend is on a mission to reignite spiritual discipline in the modern age — starting by becoming the Duolingo for the Bible. Backed by explosive early traction, we’re building the most habit-forming faith-based learning app in the world. Now, we’re hiring a Founding UI/UX Designer to help us scale from thousands of users to millions.

What You’ll Do:

Own the UI/UX design for our mobile app, including wireframes, prototypes, and visual elements
Build and ship intuitive, engaging features rapidly, from gamified Bible study mechanics to user-centered spiritual tools
Collaborate directly with the founder and team on product strategy, user experience direction, and roadmap
Ensure designs align with our mission to enhance Bible study practices on mobile devices
Lay the foundation for a world-class design culture rooted in simplicity, accessibility, and faith-aligned purpose

Who Are You:

Passionate about faith, spirituality, or building something with real societal impact
A creative designer who thrives in zero-to-one environments
Obsessed with user-centered design, clean interfaces, and delivering spiritual delight
Experienced with tools like Figma or Adobe XD — or confident enough to learn fast
Comfortable wearing multiple hats and moving at founder-speed

Bonus If You:

Have experience designing consumer mobile apps at scale
Are excited by gamification, habit loops, or AI in faith-tech
Want to help define the future of Bible study experiences

Why Join:

Meaningful equity in a venture-scale consumer product
Total ownership and autonomy in designing something that matters
Work directly with a founder obsessed with speed, growth, and mission
Help shape a category-defining mobile app at the intersection of faith, tech, and culture
