Senior Product Designer

Zuddl; San Francisco (CA); Hybrid; USD 120,000 - 160,000; Full time

Job summary

Zuddl is seeking an experienced Product Designer to own design problems from framing to shipping for web and mobile platforms. You will partner with Product and Engineering to shape what gets built, push back when briefs miss the point, and craft data-heavy experiences for attendees and organizers.

Expect to work across multi-step flows, complex UX scenarios, and iterative prototypes that incorporate AI into the daily workflow. A strong portfolio of live products or interactive demos is required.

Qualifications

• 5 to 7 years of product design experience, with at least 2 years on B2B products.
• Strong product judgment balancing user needs, business goals and engineering effort.
• Depth in complex UX: multi-step workflows, data-dense interfaces, edge cases and error states.
• Real experience shipping on web and mobile with responsive behavior.
• Fluent with AI in daily workflow; prototyping in code (HTML/CSS/React) is a plus.
• Portfolio of recent, real work, ideally live products or interactive prototypes.

Responsibilities

• Own design problems from framing through shipping with minimal oversight.
• Partner with Product and Engineering to shape what gets built and push back on wrong briefs.
• Design for web and mobile across event experiences and data-heavy workflows.
• Build interactive prototypes incorporating AI as part of the process.
• Contribute to the design system and improve tooling and workflows.
• Handle multiple workstreams and set your own priorities.
• Provide direct critique and explain design decisions clearly.

Job description

Responsibilities:

• Own design problems from framing through shipping. You'll define the problem, explore directions, prototype, test, and work with engineering to get it live, without needing much oversight.
• Work with Product and Engineering as a partner in shaping what gets built, including pushing back on requirements when the brief is solving the wrong problem.
• Design for both sides of our platform, on web and mobile: the event experiences attendees see and the data-heavy tables, settings, and workflows organizers live in every day.
• Build interactive prototypes with AI as part of your regular process, and help the team improve its tooling and workflows over time.
• Contribute to our design system as you go, so the quality you add compounds instead of staying local to one feature.
• Handle a few workstreams at once and decide your own priorities.
• Give direct, useful critique, take it well, and explain your design decisions to people outside design.

Requirements:

• 5 to 7 years of product design experience, at least 2 of them on B2B products.
• Strong product judgment. You understand the business goal behind a request, question briefs that solve the wrong problem, and make trade-offs between user needs, business outcomes, and engineering effort.
• Depth in complex UX: multi-step workflows, data-dense interfaces, edge cases, and error and empty states.
• Real experience shipping on both web and mobile, and comfort moving between the two: iOS/Android patterns, responsive behavior, and platform constraints.
• Fluent with AI in your daily workflow. It's a tool, not the job, but we expect it to be your default for exploration, prototyping, and iteration, and you should be able to show us how. Prototyping in code (HTML/CSS/React) is a plus.
• High craft and speed together: a track record of moving fast in ambiguous environments without the work looking rushed.
• A portfolio of recent, real work, ideally live products or interactive prototypes, with the thinking behind it, not just the output.
