Product Design Lead - Brazil
This is an exciting opportunity to join a newly founded startup as the founding product designer. As a key member of the team, you will play a crucial role in shaping the product from concept to prototype, helping bring to life a tool that will transform how doctors communicate with each other and with patients.
You will collaborate directly with the client's founders (clinicians) to understand their workflow, pain points, and goals. You will translate early concepts and requirements into user flows, wireframes, and high-fidelity interactive prototypes. Your expertise will be invaluable in leading the founders through the end-to-end product design process – from research through prototyping.
The ideal candidate will have 5+ years of experience in UX/UI or product design, with a strong portfolio of interactive web/mobile prototypes. They should thrive in ambiguity and iteration, demonstrating the ability to translate abstract or clinical problems into elegant design solutions. Proficiency with advanced prototyping tools such as Figma, Adobe XD, and Origami is essential.
This role offers a unique chance to work closely with real users (doctors) to solve meaningful problems in patient care. You will set the design foundation for future hires and product scale-up. The right individual will have excellent collaboration and communication skills, especially with non-technical stakeholders. Strong ownership mentality is also required, as you will be the only designer and an early voice in product direction.
