About Flamingo
Flamingo is building OpenFrame, a platform for managing IT fleets at scale, with AI copilots that actually do the work instead of just suggesting it. We're going after the big incumbents in the MSP space (Kaseya, NinjaOne, Datto) and out to disrupt the whole category. We're early, we move fast, and we want someone as fired up about building this as we are.

Role Overview
We need someone in the trenches every day. You'll own lead generation, pipeline movement, and making sure our content actually reaches the people it's meant for. This is hands-on execution, not strategy decks.

What You'll Do

• Own paid acquisition across Meta, Google, and Reddit. Build campaigns, manage budgets, test creative, and report on what's working. Pixels and conversion tracking are already wired up, so you're optimizing a running engine
• Own email deliverability and nurture. MSPs run aggressive spam filters (Proofpoint, Mimecast), and getting past them is a real problem. You'll own inbox placement, warm-up, authentication, and nurture sequences that move leads from signup to activation
• Run pipeline operations. Access code distribution, lifecycle stage hygiene in HubSpot, lead routing, and day-to-day plumbing that keeps prospects moving
• Manage outbound infrastructure. Domain reputation, sequencing, LinkedIn automation, and list hygiene to make legitimate email actually arrive
• Build AI agents and automated workflows to do the heavy lifting — nurture sequences that update themselves as the product ships, Meta and Google Ads connected through MCP so campaign data flows without manual exports

Qualifications

• Real media buying experience across Meta and Google. You can show accounts you've run and numbers you've moved
• Hands-on deliverability work. You've fixed inbox placement and know SPF, DKIM, DMARC, and warm-up
• Outbound and LinkedIn experience. You've run sequences, managed sender reputation, and know why a domain gets flagged
• CRM ownership. Hands-on HubSpot experience is what matters most. Salesforce or other major CRM experience is a plus
• AI and automation fluency. You build with AI agents, automate repetitive work, and use tools like MCP integrations to connect platforms into workflows that run themselves
• Bonus: B2B SaaS experience, especially selling to technical buyers like IT or MSPs

Flamingo is building an AI-native platform for MSPs. Our core product, OpenFrame, is an RMM/MDM: device management, monitoring, scripting, ticketing, and reporting, with two AI agents built in. Fae handles client-facing support, Mingo works alongside technicians and can execute actions across the platform. This is a large, data-dense system used daily by technical people, and it is growing fast.

We are looking for a designer who enjoys exactly that: complex domains, lots of moving parts, and full ownership of the work.

What you will do

• Own features end to end: understand the domain, define the flow, design the UI, write the copy, and hand off to engineers directly.
• Design for a technical audience: MSP admins and technicians who live in dashboards, device lists, alerts, and logs. Density and clarity matter more than decoration.
• Design agentic AI experiences: how Mingo proposes and executes actions, how Fae escalates to humans, how users trust and control automation.
• Work within and extend our existing design system.
• Collaborate directly with the engineers in a fast, low-process environment.

What we expect

• 5+ years in product design, with at least some of it on complex B2B, enterprise, or developer-facing tools.
• Portfolio with real case studies of data-heavy interfaces: dashboards, admin panels, monitoring, internal tools, or similar. Show us how you handled complexity, not just how it looked.
• Strong Figma skills. You will inherit and evolve a living design system, not start from a blank page.
• Ability to learn an unfamiliar technical domain quickly. You do not need MSP experience, but you need to be the kind of person who reads the docs, asks engineers questions, and maps the system before designing.
• Self-management: you plan your own work, flag risks early, and deliver without being chased.
• Strong written English for UI copy and specs.

Nice to have

• Experience designing AI agents, copilots, or automation UX.
• Familiarity with IT infrastructure, security, or DevOps concepts.
• Frontend awareness (what is cheap vs expensive to build).

Why Join Flamingo?

• High-impact Role: As a Design Lead, your contributions will directly shape Flamingo's product and technology.
• Innovative Tech Stack: Work with cutting-edge open-source technologies in AI, automation, and security.
• Remote-first Culture: Flexibility to work from anywhere while collaborating with a top-tier team.
• Mission-Driven Company: Join a team passionate about disrupting the MSP industry and making enterprise-grade security and IT automation accessible to all.
