Product Designer II (Founding Team)
Job Description
You will collaborate directly with the Founders, Product Management, and Engineering to transform ambiguous user pain points into highly polished, intuitive, and production-ready digital experiences.\nWe operate in a fast-paced, iterative environment. This role requires a unique blend of strategic product thinking, flawless visual execution, and a strict requirement for having previously shipped live, production-grade digital products to real users within a startup environment.\n\nCore Responsibilities\nEnd-to-End Product Design: Lead the entire design lifecycle, including user research, information architecture, wireframing, high-fidelity UI design, prototyping, and developer handoff.\nCross-Functional Collaboration: Partner closely with engineering teams to navigate technical constraints, review builds, and conduct frontend design QA to ensure shipped code matches your design intent.\nFeature Strategy: Translate business objectives and complex AI logic into simple, seamless user flows that drive core consumer metrics (engagement, conversion, and retention).\nSpeed & Quality Balance: Navigate the trade-offs between shipping a scrappy, functional MVP to gather user data versus executing highly polished, pixel-perfect design.\n\nTechnical & Design Requirements (Must-Haves)\n1. UI & Visual Craft\nAdvanced Visual Hierarchy: Expert-level mastery of typography, spatial layouts, grids, color theory, and modern UI design patterns for consumer software.\nMicro-interactions & Prototyping: Ability to build high-fidelity, interactive prototypes in Figma to communicate complex states, motion, and transitions to engineering.\nProduction-Grade Execution: A relentless eye for detail with zero tolerance for broken padding, misalignment, or unhandled edge cases.\n2.
UX & Product Thinking\nConsumer-Centric UX: Proven experience mapping complex, multi-step user journeys (e.g., e-commerce checkouts, onboarding funnels, or interactive personalization flows).\nData & Insight Driven: Ability to ground design decisions in user data, feedback, and behavioral insights rather than personal preference.\nBusiness & MVP Mindset: Strong awareness of how design impacts business levers. Ability to ruthlessly prioritize high-impact features to avoid scope creep in a fast-moving startup environment.\n3. Design Systems & Scalability\nFigma Architecture: Advanced proficiency with Figma's modern features, including auto-layout, nested components, variants, variables, and design tokens.\nScalability Mindset: Experience building, maintaining, and scaling a centralized, responsive design system that optimizes engineering handoffs and ensures cross-platform consistency (Web, Mobile).\n\nTo be considered for this opportunity, please complete the application form below:\n\nApplication Form:\nhttps://docs.google.com/forms/d/1jNLSdW6yUoBnklCfNogCE6sNnJCZ5IqM46vmk8CeWPg/viewform?pli=1&edit_requested=true\n\nExperience & Qualifications\n3 to 6 years of professional experience as a Product Designer, UI/UX Designer, or equivalent role—specifically working on consumer-facing web or mobile applications.\nStartup Experience is a Must: A proven track record of thriving in early-to-growth stage startups, managing ambiguity, and working with lean teams.\nShipped Portfolio: A comprehensive portfolio showcasing real, live, production-grade work currently used by consumers.
