Product Designer
Kaho is hiring one full-time Product Designer, working remotely on its PDF and ebook reader. Pay is ₹5.3 LPA to ₹9 LPA, and the post does not ask for any prior experience.
What the pay looks like
At ₹5.3 LPA to ₹9 LPA, this pay sits well above typical for jobs in the same field across India. That stands out for a role that does not ask for prior experience.
What you would design at Kaho
Kaho is a reader for PDFs and EPUBs with note-taking, an AI assistant tied to the page being read, and voice control. The designer decides how these parts look, read and respond.
- Design complete journeys through reading, notes, AI questions and voice commands, starting at the first time someone opens the app and continuing into everyday use.
- Take charge of type throughout the product: long reading sessions, text in the interface, and how English and Devanagari are paired for Hindi content.
- Create the design system covering type scale, spacing, colour, icons, components, and both light and dark themes. The post wants it detailed enough for engineers to build it exactly as drawn.
- Decide how the AI assistant and voice feedback appear alongside the page: showing what Kaho picked up, what action it is taking, and how it recovers after a wrong result.
- Build prototypes in Figma, try them with students and heavy users of the app, and revise fast.
- Occasionally produce brand and marketing visuals, and covers for Kaho Editions.
Who this role is open to
The post asks for no prior experience, and recent graduates of design schools are welcome. The work is remote, and the perks line mentions a 5 day week.
- A portfolio showing real app or website screens, with at least one case study that walks through a single flow from beginning to end.
- A good eye for typography. Having designed in Devanagari or Hindi counts as a big plus, not a requirement.
- A liking for reading, education, learning products or tools for developers.
- Listed skills: wireframing, typography, UI and UX design, and Figma.

How to make your application stronger
- Choose your strongest case study and show the full journey, explaining the reasoning behind each screen. The post specifically wants a flow shown start to finish.
- Add some type work, such as a reading layout, a type scale, or a Latin and Devanagari pairing. It helps to say why you picked each size and spacing.
- Show a small component set in light and dark themes, so it is clear your files could be handed to engineers.
- Sketch error states for an AI or voice feature, for example what appears when the app mishears. One short example in your portfolio is enough.
- Use a reading or note-taking app for a week and list what you would change. It gives you concrete points for an interview.
