Founding Product Designer
We are seeking an exceptional Founding Product Designer to join our startup and play a foundational role in shaping the product from concept to prototype. This is a high-impact opportunity to influence product design, workflow logic, and our overall mission from day one.
* This is a full-time position that requires direct collaboration with our founding team to understand their workflow, pain points, and goals.
About the Opportunity:
Our startup aims to improve patient care by streamlining and modernizing communication between healthcare providers. You will be instrumental in helping us bring to life a tool that will transform how doctors communicate with each other and with patients, thus improving the patient experience and driving positive reviews for hospitals.
Your Key Responsibilities:
1. Translate early concepts and requirements into user flows, wireframes, and high-fidelity interactive prototypes.
2. Lead our founders through the end-to-end product design process — from research through prototyping.
3. Iterate designs based on feedback from medical professionals and internal stakeholders.
4. Build the design foundation for future product development, including design systems and component libraries.
5. Communicate design rationale clearly to both non-technical founders and technical teams.
Requirements:
* Based in Brazil (CNPJ required) and advanced/fluent in English.
* 5+ years of experience in UX/UI or product design, with a strong portfolio of interactive web/mobile prototypes.
* Demonstrated ability to translate abstract or clinical problems into elegant design solutions.
* Proficiency with advanced prototyping tools (Figma, Adobe XD, Origami, etc).
* Excellent collaboration and communication skills, especially with non-technical stakeholders.
* Strong ownership mentality — you'll be the only designer and an early voice in product direction.
Bonus Points:
* Having engineering experience developing SaaS applications.
* Having engineering/product leadership experience.
* Knowledge of design for communication tools or messaging apps.
* Experience working with healthcare-related platforms.
* Experience working with early-stage startups.
Why This Role Is Unique:
* You're joining at the ground floor — helping shape the core product experience.
* You'll have direct influence over user experience and product decisions.
* Work closely with real users (doctors) to solve meaningful problems in patient care.
