Product Designer
This is a full-time opportunity for an experienced Product Designer to join our team.
About the Role
We are seeking a skilled Product Designer to define and lead design experiences across three core products. The ideal candidate will have a strong bias for action, a scrappy attitude toward product development, and flexibility to pivot in a fast-paced environment.
* You will take ideas from concept to completion.
* Conduct and manage full research process from planning and scheduling to execution and synthesis.
* Lead usability testing sessions, gather feedback, and information to vet and refine designs.
The role requires collaboration with engineers to ensure designs are feasible, scope appropriately, and account for edge cases and error states.
Your ability to communicate effectively and collaborate is crucial.
Key Responsibilities
The responsibilities of this role include:
* Defining and leading design experiences across three core products.
* Taking ideas from concept to completion.
* Conducting and managing full research process.
* Leading usability testing sessions.
* Collaborating with engineers.
Qualifications
To be successful in this role, you will need:
* A minimum of 4 years of experience in Product/UX Design.
* Fluent in English.
* Good taste in visual design.
* A strong portfolio with concrete examples of designing and shipping complex web or mobile interfaces.
Work Environment
The team is distributed, but generally located in North and South America (United States and Brazil). Work hours are flexible, but there are regular meetings you'll be expected to attend. The expectation is to be available to collaborate during general daytime hours. The team relies heavily on Figma, Slack, Linear, and Notion for collaboration.
The role is full-time, but you will be paid as a contractor. To enable this, the company will work with individuals who already have a company set up in Brazil or help you set up your company to be compensated.
Interview Process
The interview process includes:
* Asynchronous portfolio review: Create a 15-minute video walking through a relevant project that demonstrates your skills and experience related to the role.
* Project: Spend 2 hours on a small project. You will be given product context and asked to come up with low-fidelity designs for a user experience that would address the problem. You will present your project during a 1-hour interview with leadership.
* 1-2 additional follow-up 1:1s with the founder and/or Head of Engineering may be requested to address unresolved questions.
This is a unique opportunity to work with a talented team and contribute to the development of innovative products. If you are passionate about product design and have the required skills and qualifications, we encourage you to apply.
