Creating leverage and impact far and above what you'd see in a typical EPD product team structure. You won’t be a cog in the wheel, the wheel is not very big

Getting to work on all parts of a massive product surface area - spanning many user types, JTBDs, usability challenges, etc. Unlike in other organizations, you won’t be stuck working on one problem for many years

Helping reinvent the design model for modern enterprise software—you don’t have to build wireframes, user journeys, personas, etc. What matters is solving a customer’s problem; what tools you use are up to you

Covering all parts of the design process with a focus on design craft. You'll still be doing the occasional user research interview but will be focused on using heuristics & experience to improve our IA, navigation, interactions, UI patterns, and more

Helping build our design system from (almost) the ground up.

4+ years of product design experience in desktop SaaS

Enough experience that your intuition can solve many usability problems without having to rely solely on data & metrics or conducting user research

As a bonus, you have experience at an early-stage startup or have spent time as a solo designer on a team

Strong visual design skills and obsession with craft & details

Strong skills in layout, navigation, IA, UI, and interaction design

Can break down complex user problems by asking questions that narrow down the solution space

Curious & resourceful enough to come up with creative solutions and de-risk them appropriately

Able to think from first principles instead of simply applying the “standard” UX processes.
