Product Designer

About Elevate

Elevate is a full-service consulting firm that inspires high-performing organizations to find their limits and push past them. With expertise in brand consulting, sales strategy, data-driven insights, and talent optimization, Elevate gives its clients a competitive edge in the fight for people’s precious time and attention.

Where you come in

Elevate is building a suite of software products across commerce, data, and client experience workflows. These products are growing quickly, and the next stage requires stronger ownership of the user experience, design system, and handoff between product, design, and engineering.

What You'll Bring

• 2+ years of product design, UX/UI design, interaction design, or related digital product experience.
• Strong Figma skills, including components, variants, design systems, prototypes, and developer handoff.
• Experience designing web applications, dashboards, data-heavy workflows, internal tools, or SaaS products.
• Ability to run lightweight discovery with users and stakeholders to understand real workflow problems.
• Ability to translate ambiguous feedback into clear designs, user flows, acceptance criteria, and implementation-ready details.
• Strong collaboration instincts with frontend and full-stack engineers.
• A pragmatic sense of scope: you know when a design needs to be excellent, when it needs to be simple, and when a follow-up ticket is the right move.
• Comfort reviewing work in staging or production and giving clear design QA feedback.
• Clear communication and ownership in a remote environment.

Preferred Experience

• Front-end familiarity with HTML, CSS, React, TypeScript, Storybook, or component-driven development.
• Experience maintaining or evolving a design system across multiple products.
• Experience with data visualization, query builders, reporting tools, e-commerce flows, or enterprise workflow products.
• Experience in sports, entertainment, ticketing, sponsorship, hospitality, or consumer analytics.
• Comfort using AI tools for rapid prototyping, research synthesis, or design exploration.

Your Journey: First 90 Days

• First 30 Days: Learn the product ecosystem and current design system. Meet product managers, engineers, business stakeholders, and key internal users. Audit the current product surfaces for design inconsistency, unclear workflows, and high-friction areas. Understand how Figma, Jira, and engineering handoff currently work.
• Days 31-60: Own design for one priority workflow from discovery through implementation handoff. Clean up or clarify a high-value area of the design system. Establish a lightweight design QA process with product and engineering. Partner with engineers to reduce rework caused by unclear scope or late design changes.
• Days 61-90: Deliver visible UX improvements in at least one priority product area. Establish a repeatable design-to-engineering workflow that makes Figma, Jira, and acceptance criteria line up. Help leadership understand where design investment will create the most product and business value. Become a trusted partner for pragmatic product design across the engineering organization.

Why This Role Matters

Now Elevate can keep building features without dedicated product design ownership for a while, but the product experience will become inconsistent and harder to use. As the platform scales, UX quality becomes part of the business value. It affects adoption, client confidence, internal efficiency, and engineering speed. This role helps Elevate ship products that feel coherent, usable, and worth trusting.

The Product Environment You'll Work With

• Audience research, reporting, and analysis workflows
• Premium experience, administrative, and package management workflows
• Commercial operations workflows for inventory, pricing, marketplace activity, and reporting
• Shared product design system and component patterns
