Job description

Who we are

the company (NYSE: IOT) is the pioneer of the Connected Operations™ Cloud, which is a platform that enables organizations that depend on physical operations to harness Internet of Things (IoT) data to develop actionable insights and improve their operations. At the company, we are helping improve the safety, efficiency and sustainability of the physical operations that power our global economy. Representing more than 40% of global GDP, these industries are the infrastructure of our planet, including agriculture, construction, field services, transportation, and manufacturing — and we are excited to help digitally transform their operations at scale.

Working at the company means you’ll help define the future of physical operations and be on a team that’s shaping an exciting array of product solutions, including Video-Based Safety, Vehicle Telematics, Apps and Driver Workflows, and Equipment Monitoring. As part of a recently public company, you’ll have the autonomy and support to make an impact as we build for the long term.

About this role

As a Staff Product Designer at the company, you will set a vision and ship work that shapes the way our customers and internal teams operate. You will partner closely with Product and Engineering leaders, set the interaction patterns and visual systems other designers build on, and build direct relationships with our most strategic customers.

This is a remote role open to candidates residing in the US.

You should apply if

• You want to impact the industries that run our world: Your efforts will result in real‑world impact: helping to keep the lights on, get food into grocery stores, reduce emissions, and most importantly, ensure workers return home safely.
• You are the architect of your own career: If you put in the work, this role won’t be your last at the company. We set up our employees for success and have built a culture that encourages rapid career development, countless opportunities to experiment and master your craft in a hyper growth environment.
• You’re energized by our opportunity: The vision we have to digitize large sectors of the global economy requires your full focus and best efforts to bring forth creative, ambitious ideas for our customers.
• You want to be with the best: At the company, we win together, celebrate together and support each other. You will be surrounded by a high‑calibre team that will encourage you to do your best.

In this role, you will

• Lead large, ambiguous initiatives that span multiple product areas, from problem framing through launch and iteration.
• Be a taste maker and demonstrate good judgement in your domain.
• Regularly meet and engage with our most strategic customers to bring the customer voice alongside product data into product decisions.
• Leverage AI tools through every step of the process, defining new ways of working and democratizing design at the company.
• Stay well informed on the emerging trends, tools, and technology. Give back to the community.
• Ship code to production across our design system, web products, and mobile apps.
• Set the bar for what great looks like through building and shipping.

Minimum requirements for the role

• 10+ years of product design experience designing UX/UI for web and mobile applications, with a track record of leading work that spans multiple product areas.
• A strong portfolio and/or case studies showing design craft and quantified impact at the level of multiple product areas or platform‑wide systems, not just a single feature. We cannot consider applications without a portfolio at this time.
• Deep interaction and visual design skills, with the judgment to define new patterns other designers and teams build on.
• AI tools in your regular design practice (e.g., Cursor, Figma Make), with shipped work you can attribute to them.
• Experience mentoring designers formally and informally.
• Experience partnering with senior leadership.

Total Rewards

At the company, we build for the people who keep the global economy moving. We want owners, not passengers, which is why our rewards are designed to fuel high‑impact builders. Our compensation program delivers above‑market total compensation through a combination of base salary, performance‑based bonus/variable pay, and equity (for eligible roles) in a high‑growth public company. We meaningfully differentiate pay for our top performers, who have the opportunity to earn above‑market compensation that can outpace the broader market over time.

Beyond compensation, we provide the foundations that enable long‑term success: a flexible, employee‑led remote model, a professional development stipend, comprehensive health and parental leave plans, and more. If you’re ready to build for the long term and own the outcome, your journey starts here.

Flexible Working

At the company, we embrace a flexible working model that caters to the diverse needs of our teams. Our offices are open for those who prefer to work in‑person and we also support remote work where it aligns with our operational requirements. For certain positions, being close to one of our offices or within a specific geographic area is important to facilitate collaboration, access to resources, or alignment with our service regions. In these cases, the job description will clearly indicate any working location requirements. Our goal is to ensure that all members of our team can contribute effectively, whether they are working on‑site, in a hybrid model, or fully remotely.
