Your Impact: How You'll Help Us Heal a Broken SystemThis isn't just a job; it's a chance to build something that matters. As a Product Designer at Verse, you'll shape how clinicians, care coordinators, and patients experience at-home care.
Healthcare is the most under-designed industry in America, and the one that needs great design the most. The software clinicians use every day looks and feels a decade behind the tools they use in the rest of their lives, and patients feel that gap at the worst possible moments.
Our users are specialized professionals doing high-stakes work under time pressure. The tools they use today are dense, clunky, and unforgiving, and we believe great design is a competitive advantage in this space. That's why we hold an unusually high bar for craft. You'll work shoulder-to-shoulder with product-minded engineers and product managers who share a bias for action and a deep sense of mission to help people heal at home.
What You'll Achieve: A Glimpse into Your ContributionsWithin your first year, you will have the opportunity to:
- Own the end-to-end design of high-priority product areas, from early discovery and workflow mapping through high-fidelity design and shipped product.
- Design intricate, logic-heavy interfaces (like our clinical order flows) that turn dense, multi-step workflows into beautiful experiences users describe as effortless.
- Raise the craft bar across the product: sweat the details of typography, spacing, motion, and interaction states, and set the standard for what "done" looks like.
- Build and evolve our design system so quality scales with the team rather than depending on heroics.
- Prototype quickly and at high fidelity to pressure-test ideas face to face with real users.
- Develop deep empathy for clinicians, coordinators, and patients through direct research, and translate what you learn into opinionated design decisions.
- Partner closely with engineers through implementation, ensuring what ships matches what was designed.
What You'll Bring: The Skills and Experience You'll LeverageWe believe that diverse experiences and backgrounds lead to better solutions.
