  • Experience designing and prototyping in Figma
  • A strong portfolio (website, Behance, or PDF) showcasing design work
  • Solid design fundamentals, including typography, layout, hierarchy, alignment, and spacing
  • Understanding of core design principles (contrast, repetition, hierarchy, etc.)
  • Strong visual taste and attention to detail
  • Comfort using AI tools to support design workflows, ideation, and rapid iteration
  • Interest in both product design and brand/marketing design
  • Passion for visual collaboration, diagramming, and simplifying complex ideas
  • Ability to learn the product and design within real constraints
  • Comfort working in a fast-paced, ambiguous environment
  • Organized, proactive, and willing to take ownership
  • A bias toward action and learning by doing


Nice to have (but not required)
  • Experience designing for marketing channels (web, social, paid ads, email)
  • Familiarity with SaaS or data-heavy products
  • Experience working with engineers or understanding basic front-end concepts
  • Experience with motion, prototyping tools, or micro-interactions


What we offer
  • Competitive compensation
  • Meaningful equity
  • Fully paid health insurance for you and your family
  • Remote work, with occasional in-person onsites
  • The opportunity to see your designs shipped across both product and brand


If you want to design real product experiences and shape how a company presents itself to the world, we'd love to hear from you.
