About the role

We are seeking a versatile, intrinsically motivated designer who is excited to contribute to rethinking how modern software is designed. You will be part designer, part product manager, part consultant, and part design system manager.

Responsibilities

  • Consult with engineers on layout, typography, flows, etc.
  • Dig into problems by consulting GTM, talking to customers, asking for data requests, and more to present confident assumptions about your proposals.
  • Create leverage and impact far and above what you'd see in a typical EPD product team structure.
  • Help reinvent the design model for modern enterprise software.
  • Take ownership of larger product features and think through Jobs-To-Be-Done, navigation, information architecture, layout, interaction, etc.
  • Take in customer feedback and use heuristics to build your own usability backlog and propose projects for engineers to take on.
  • Consolidate and refine our design system to be functional, aesthetic, and best-in-class.

Requirements

  • 4+ years of product design experience in desktop SaaS.
  • Able to think from first principles instead of simply applying the “standard” UX processes.
  • Enough experience that your intuition can solve many usability problems without having to rely solely on data & metrics or conducting user research.
  • Strong skills in layout, navigation, IA, UI, and interaction design.
  • Strong visual design skills and obsession with craft & details.

Qualifications

  • Experience at an early-stage startup or spending time as a solo designer on a team.
  • Curiosity and resourcefulness to come up with creative solutions and de-risk them appropriately.
  • Ability to work independently without much guidance from a PM or design management.
  • Comfortable having your decisions and process being challenged constantly by engineering & product.
  • Willingness to work in a remote setting.
  • Enjoyment of written documentation.
  • Desire for a narrow job scope - interaction design only, design system only, etc.

Skills

  • Ability to think from first principles.
  • Experience breaking down complex user problems.
  • Strong skills in layout, navigation, IA, UI, and interaction design.
  • Strong visual design skills and obsession with craft & details.

Benefits

  • Competitive salary and equity.
  • 10-year exercise window for stock options.
  • Unlimited PTO with four weeks recommended per year.
  • Twelve weeks of fully paid family leave in the US.
  • Generous equipment, software, and office furniture budget.
  • $100/month education budget with more expensive items (like conferences) covered with manager approval.
  • Top-notch health insurance for you and your dependents with all premiums covered by us.
