About this role

About The Role

The Product Designer leads the design life cycle for their products. You will partner with PMs, Developers, other Product Designers, and clients to define requirements, plan and conduct research, identify problems, architect solutions, build design systems, create wireframes, and deliver beautiful and usable products.

Who You Are

We're hiring a Product Designer, but we're not looking for someone who only designs screens. You're excellent at your craft, have strong product taste, and are comfortable stepping beyond traditional design boundaries when that's what the product needs.

You have a high bar for what good looks like and care deeply about how products look, feel, and work.
You see yourself as a product builder, not someone who only owns the design phase. You're comfortable contributing across strategy, product, and implementation when needed.
You think beyond the interface to understand the user problem, business model, growth, adoption, and what success looks like after launch.
You get energy from turning ideas into real products and seeing how people actually use them.
You take ownership of outcomes, not just design deliverables, and stay engaged through implementation and iteration.

Your Responsibilities

Facilitate workshops to uncover problems and understand users to define what we are solving, why, and for whom.
Conduct UX research, including user interviews, usability tests, surveys, competitive analyses, card sorts, literature reviews, UX audits, and heuristic evaluations.
Distill research findings into actionable next steps and constraints for design.
Explore solutions by architecting experiences using journey maps, story maps, site maps, flow diagrams, sketches, and low fidelity wireframes.
Create UX and UI deliverables by designing medium and high fidelity wireframes.
Demonstrate interactions and user flows by creating clickable/tappable prototypes.
Align design decisions with client business goals and KPIs to drive business outcomes.
Establish visual design guidelines by exploring typography, colors, logos, imagery, illustrations, and iconography.
Prepare designs for handoff by creating robust and scalable atomic design systems, annotating wireframes, and supporting development requirements.
Gather and iterate on client feedback directly, while maintaining clear communication and setting realistic expectations throughout the process.
Optimize internal processes including design, client management, project management, and development by identifying areas of improvement and proposing solutions.
Be comfortable using AI-assisted design and development workflows, including tools such as Paper.design and Claude Code, to explore, communicate, and iterate on solutions.

Keys to success

Be comfortable with ambiguity. You will succeed if you are able to effectively digest information from clients, even when contradictory, distill what is truly important, and make thoughtful suggestions and adjustments.
Be passionate about growth. You will succeed if you continuously look to improve your skills and level up the abilities of the team as a whole. We are big on giving and receiving feedback.
Manage multiple projects simultaneously while maintaining high-quality output, clear communication, and meeting deadlines for all stakeholders.
Be thoughtful about defining and addressing problems. You will succeed if you dig deep to learn more about why problems exist and where their roots lie. We leverage research and workshops to dive into the problems we’re being asked to solve.
Be practical with your solutions. You will succeed if you prioritize your tasks efficiently and know when it’s time for creativity versus when it’s time to deliver quickly.
