From the original posting
The Role
We're looking for a Founding Product Designer to join our team and shape the experiences our customers interact with every day. You'll work across the full design process—from early research and ideation through to polished, shipping designs—collaborating closely with engineering, product management, and other stakeholders.
What You'll Do
Own design for key product areas, taking ambiguous problems and turning them into clear, elegant solutions
Conduct user research to understand needs, pain points, and how people actually use what we build
Create wireframes, prototypes, and high-fidelity interfaces to explore and validate ideas
Partner directly with engineers to bring your work to life–and iterate based on what you learn once it ships
Contribute to our design system and establish patterns that scale across the product
What We’re Looking For
You have 5+ years of experience designing digital products, with a portfolio that demonstrates end-to-end product thinking (not just visual polish)
You're proficient with modern design tools (Figma or equivalent)
You're comfortable with ambiguity and energized by open-ended problems where the right solution isn't obvious yet
You can advocate strongly for your ideas while remaining genuinely open to feedback and debate
You're curious about how people use the things you build--not just whether the designs look right, but whether they actually work
You have some familiarity with user research methods and front-end development constraints, even if those aren't your primary strengths
Don’t meet all of the above traits? We’d still love to hear from you. We’re looking for exceptional people with unique skills and interests, and we know that great people have different backgrounds and skillsets.
