Job description

Our client is looking for a Product Designer to join their team. This role is for someone who is excited to build something new and innovative.

Responsibilities

• Own design work end-to-end on real product features: research, ideation, prototyping, and iteration, with support from the team.
• Collaborate closely with engineers to bring your designs to life, and contribute to a shared design system that scales across the product.
• Build genuine understanding of our users through research, testing, and tight loops with Product and Customer Success.
• Communicate your thinking clearly—through docs, walkthroughs, or working sessions—so the whole team can give good feedback and stay aligned.

Requirements

• Sharp visual and interaction instincts—you have a point of view on what “great” looks like and can articulate why.
• You use AI tools as a natural part of how you work—for research, ideation, prototyping, writing, or building.
• You think beyond the screen—you consider the full user journey, not just individual flows.
• You’re comfortable with ambiguity and fast iteration—you know when to go hi‑fi and when a rough sketch is the right approach.
• You can prototype in code: Framer, React, TailwindCSS, or just enough Next.js to make something feel real.
• You’re at the intersection of design and engineering—you’ve shipped something, even if it was a side project.
• You have a portfolio that shows taste, judgment, and range.
