RESPONSIBILITIES

  • Lead feature UX/UI design with a user-focused, iterative design process

  • Establish and run a regular user research program to evaluate and generate ideas

  • Solicit and incorporate feedback and critique from across the team

  • Own the overall user experience, developing conceptual frameworks and design systems to protect and enhance it

  • Conduct user interviews to align the design and functionality as closely as possible with the users' workflows

  • Collaborate with Product to integrate data and user feedback into our roadmap

  • Collaborate with marketing on the design of our website and other marketing touchpoints


YOU MUST HAVE

  • At least 4 years of experience as a UX designer, with at least 2 in early-stage startups

  • Experience designing for SaaS

  • Self-motivated with good time management; ability to work independently and as part of a team within a structured, fast-paced development process

  • Ability to clearly explain design concepts, decisions, and processes to non-designers - you'll be our first hire in the department, and we hope to learn a lot from you!

  • Passion for the craft and a curiosity about emerging perspectives, techniques, and tools

  • Bias towards action - you are constantly iterating to find out what does and doesn't work

  • Previous experience managing a team or mentoring junior colleagues will be a plus
