Set and champion a clear product design vision aligned with company goals and brand values.
Lead by example as our most senior designer — contributing directly to our most important projects with exceptional visual and interaction craft.
Manage, mentor, and grow another product designer; provide thoughtful feedback and career development.
Maintain and scale our design system to ensure consistency and speed across products.
Leverage AI design and prototyping tools to increase the team’s leverage and the quality and velocity of what you ship.
Partner closely with Product and Engineering to ship pixel-perfect, user-centered experiences.
Conduct user research and usability testing to validate decisions, and champion user-centered design across the organization.
We offer competitive pay with a base salary range for this position of $170,000 - $235,000 depending on job-related knowledge, skills, experience, and location. In addition, we offer lumen-denominated grants along with the following perks and benefits:
