THE ROLE
We would like to add a technically-minded Product Designer to our Product Team, with experience in building infrastructure applications or dev tools at scale. You will work cross-functionally with experts in software engineering, ML, marketing, our partners and more, in a truly exciting product category. You should be someone who appreciates the merits of an elegant design system while being proficient in writing front-end code for prototyping. Our mission is to become the go-to platform for developers building AI-integrated applications. Therefore, it’s important to us that you approach ambiguous problems as an opportunity for learning; your portfolio should demonstrate how you’ve adapted your design process to achieve the mutual objectives of a business and its user, in a frenetic paced, start-up environment.
To apply for this role you must be based in San Francisco. Note, any applications without a portfolio will not be considered.
KEY RESPONSIBILITIES
- Create user flows, wireframes, design specs, and other design artifacts to communicate complex concepts, and explain the design rationale behind your decision-making.
- Translate internal feature enhancement intuitions and user actionable insights into early prototypes or high fidelity wireframes, and iterate based on continuous feedback from users; we use Figma for no-code prototypes and React in our product.
- Apply strong written communication skills to formulate pre-reads to steer alignment and better asynchronous communication.
- Own and codify our pattern library for enabling a smoother engineering hand-off and to facilitate greater consistency.
- Provide feedback and guidance to help mentor our junior designer.
- Contribute to whiteboarding and other ideation sessions.
- Show your work at internal demo days and contribute to design critiques.
- Study the user experience of direct and indirect competitor products.
- Work closely with product and engineering team to identify, plan, scope, and execute an end-to-end user experience.
- Identify and define opportunities that will improve the product (including the metrics you will measure), shepherd your design solution through the development process and analyze the results.
- Proactively identify and unblock knowledge sharing and communication challenges to help scale the design organization.
- Write user stories and acceptance criteria for the engineering backlog.
- Contribute to the brand visual language and make changes to our website hosted on Webflow.
YOU WILL HAVE
- Experience designing for developer tools
- Experience working with distributed or remote teams
- Experience codifying pattern libraries
- Proficient in Figma
- Comfortable prototyping with HTML, Javascript and CSS (not expected to produce production-ready code)
NICE TO HAVE
- Experience with designing for AI/ML interactions
- Experience in brand design
- An active interest in UI animation
