A message from me (Sam, Co-founder)
We're looking for individuals to form the foundation of our new cross-functional teams. This means you'll have a lot of freedom & opportunity to grow via solving hard problems with huge ownership of the feature/product you're working on. Our team is full of highly motivated & super-intelligent people who love to extract the most out of life.
Until now, the only product designer was me, however, with a growing team and customer base we are excited to welcome a second product designer to the team. If any of the above sounds interesting to you, and you're keen to work in a fast-growing (bootstrapped) product startup, innovating in the marketing space, I'd love to hear from you.
We're looking for someone who is excited by the idea of making a big impact, and happy to take ownership of work at an exciting stage of our journey. You should have a strong bias to action and a sense of curiosity. As a fast-growing startup, everyone’s scope is big and we’re always doing something new.
What You'll Do
- Design product concepts that balance vision, craft, speed, and business potential.
- Craft every detail of new product features, from idea to UX to pixel-perfect execution.
- Run projects end to end with engineers and a product manager to drive your vision to the ship line.
- Work with Marketing to devise new ways to tell great stories throughout the user lifecycle, and across our site, product, help guides and other channels.
- Create new patterns that are intuitive, practical, and convergent. Evolve our design system intentionally as we scale.
What we're looking for
- You have well-rounded skills and experience to run projects independently end to end. 3+ years of working experience.
- You can create clear, intuitive, and visually appealing human interfaces. (UI)
- You can untangle vague conceptual problems, and have a sharp intuition for the most accessible mental models and flows, so users can immediately start gaining value out of the product. (UX)
- You care about the business needs, implications, and practicality of your designs. You don't get stuck on pretty UI or deep abstractions and can balance between craft, speed, and the bottom line.
- You have strong beliefs, loosely held. You're a good listener who collaborates well with different stakeholders. You observe and internalize all inputs and feedback to help you reach an optimal decision.
- You like to tell stories using both words and visuals, and strategize the best way to make your point.
Bonus Points
- You've designed and built great tools with small teams in the past.
- You bring unique strengths and perspectives to the team. We're looking to build a diverse team where our skills and experience can complement each other.
