Quality Control jobs in Singapore

At Instawork, we’re driven by our vision to create economic opportunity for local businesses and skilled hourly professionals in communities around the world. With a growing number of hub cities across the world in the U.S., Canada, India, and beyond, we’re looking for top talent to help rapidly scale our high-tech and high-touch labor marketplace. Our accomplished and dedicated team is passionate about our mission and committed to crafting revolutionary products, all with the backing of our world-class investors, including Benchmark, Spark Capital, Craft Ventures, Greylock Capital, Y Combinator, and more!

We are seeking a highly skilled and experienced Lead Product Designer to join our dynamic team. The ideal candidate will have a proven track record in leading UX projects from concept to execution, as well as utilizing and contributing to comprehensive design systems. This role requires a deep understanding of user-centered design principles, exceptional problem-solving skills, and the ability to mentor and guide a team of UX designers.

Who You Are

• You strike a balance between idealism and pragmatism. You are excited about setting a big vision for the future, while also enthusiastically rolling up your sleeves to ship the smaller improvements it takes to get there.

• You always get it done, whatever it is. You’re proactive and comfortable taking action even when it’s met with skepticism and doubt. You don’t wait for others to unblock you when you can unblock yourself.
• You understand that everything we ship becomes a part of our design system, intentional or not. You’re adept at knowing when to leverage existing components and when to make a case for a new one.

What You’ll Do

• Strategy and Leadership:
  • Partner with your product manager to define and drive the overall strategy for your product area, ensuring alignment with business goals and user needs.
  • Mentor your fellow UX designers, providing guidance, feedback, and growth opportunities.
• User Research and Testing:
  • Conduct and oversee user research activities, including interviews, surveys, usability testing, and competitive analysis.
  • Analyze and synthesize research findings to inform design decisions and validate concepts.
  • Advocate for user-centered design methodologies and ensure that user feedback is integrated into the design process.
• Design Execution and Collaboration:
  • Work closely with developers to ensure accurate implementation of design specifications and provide ongoing support during the development process.
  • Facilitate design reviews and present design solutions to stakeholders at various stages of the project lifecycle.
