Key Skills for This Role
Figma
Full Job Posting
- Start with the user and the problem, not the pixels, and can explain the reasoning behind every design decision.
- Think in systems: you see how a single screen fits into a flow, and how a flow fits into the whole product.
- Are comfortable with ambiguity and like turning a fuzzy problem into a clear, testable design.
- Care about craft and details, but would rather ship, learn, and iterate than wait for perfection.
- Give and take feedback with low ego, and make the people around you better.
- Own end-to-end product design for web and mobile: discovery, user flows, wireframes, prototypes, and polished UI.
- Frame problems before solving them. Talk to users, study how they work, and challenge requirements when there's a better answer.
- Build our design system from scratch: foundations (color, type, spacing, iconography, tokens) and a shared component library used across products.
- Design consistent experiences across our products and platforms, so each new product starts from the system rather than from a blank page.
- Partner closely with engineers to ship: prototype quickly, hand off clearly, and review what's built to keep quality high.
- Use research, usability testing, and product data to validate decisions and keep improving what's live.
- Help shape how the team works: design reviews, critique, and the processes a growing product team needs.
- 1 - 4 years of experience in UI/UX design or a related role, with shipped work you can walk us through.
- A portfolio showing both web and mobile product design (responsive web and native iOS/Android patterns).
- Strong UX fundamentals: information architecture, interaction design, user flows, and usability.
- Strong visual craft: layout, typography, hierarchy, and attention to detail.
- Clear evidence of systems thinking: reusable components, patterns, or a design system you built or contributed to.
- Fluency in Figma and rapid prototyping.
- Ability to explain and defend design decisions to engineers and stakeholders in clear written and spoken English.
- Experience as an early or founding designer at a startup or on a new team.
- Experience with design tokens, theming, and accessibility standards (WCAG).
- Ability to prototype in code (HTML/CSS, React) or comfort using AI tools in your design workflow.
- Experience designing data-dense or workflow-heavy tools: dashboards, internal tools, marketplaces, or B2B platforms.
- Background in AI products, data platforms, or work involving remote expert contributors.
