Job description

Lead the end-to-end design process for new features and updates, from user research to wireframing, prototyping, and final UI design.

Refine our information architecture to enable intuitive experiences for our users.

Proactively identify user experience friction points and advocate on behalf of the user to product and engineering teams.

Build out our design system to ensure consistency and speed up development across the product.

Craft intuitive experiences that allow customers to smartly audit and understand data from external experiences in SaaSGrid.

Balance easy, out-of-the-box analysis with the ability for more advanced users to splice, filter, and transform their data for complex analysis.

Our Approach to Solving Problems

Ship fast and frequently. We believe in the power of iteration. Nothing will be perfect on the first pass, so get something out there fast, and don’t let your first attempt be your last.

Define patterns worth following. We are proud of what we’ve built so far, but it’s only the beginning. When working on a new feature, you are laying the foundation of our design system for years to come. Take pride in that responsibility, evangelize good design decisions, and iterate on everything.

Understand the customer and take ownership of the product. At SaaSGrid, product specs are problem statements. Deeply understand the issues customers are facing and be proactive and creative with solutions.
