Role Description

As a senior-staff level Product Designer and the 4th designer on the team, you’ll work closely with PMs and Engineering Leads to build innovative products and features from concept to completion. You’ll leverage your expertise in user research, prototyping, and usability testing to deliver high-quality designs that solve complex problems. As an early member of the team, you’ll help shape our design systems, processes, and team structure while advocating for the value of design across the organization. If you’re eager to have a big influence on the foundational product experience in a fast-growing, dynamic environment where design plays a critical role, we want to hear from you!

Responsibilities

  • Lead the design of new products and features through the full 0–1 development cycle.
  • Collaboratively participate in defining the company strategy and product roadmap.
  • Plan and execute user research necessary to inform product decisions.
  • Rapidly design and prototype ideas with tight feedback loops to quickly validate product direction.
  • Deliver compelling designs with an appropriate balance of viability, functionality, and delightful user experiences.
  • Leverage data to effectively articulate your thought process and strategic rationale to help align stakeholders.
  • Elegantly but firmly negotiate with product management and engineering to properly scope each release.
  • Partner with engineering to assure quality in functionality and design with every release.
  • Help the design team define and maintain necessary processes to work quickly, consistently, and effectively – including (but not limited to) evolving our design system in Figma, running design thinking sessions, holding design reviews, conducting research, etc.

Qualifications

  • 4+ years working at a senior level in product design.
  • Established track record of impactful, collaborative design work in a fast-paced startup environment.
  • Experience creating designs for every step of the process, including wireframes, diagrams, mockups, and prototypes.
  • Expert-level skills at design and prototyping tools, primarily Figma.
  • Work examples that showcase beautifully shipped designs that you can talk through in depth about process, outcomes, and learnings.
  • Strong sense of initiative, thoughtful synthesis of feedback, and swift adaptability when faced with ambiguity.
  • Strong understanding of the full product development cycle.

What We Offer

  • An opportunity to work on a challenging product that will impact millions of people
  • A culture that promotes continuous learning and growth, with access to resources and mentorship to advance your skills and career
  • A supportive, inclusive environment where every team member's contribution is valued

Compensation & Benefits

  • Competitive compensation and a fantastic office atmosphere
  • Premium healthcare and wellness benefits

Environment

This role is located in New York City and requires the candidate to work from our office five days a week.

If you are eager to apply your skills in a dynamic, collaborative environment, and are passionate about building systems that are both powerful and accessible, we would love to hear from you.
