We’re an ambitious startup building products from the ground up to solve challenging, real-world problems. You won’t be working from a predefined playbook you’ll help shape what the product should be, how it works, and how it evolves from day one.

This is a Product Designer role, not simply a UI/UX execution role. We’re looking for a strong product and systems thinker who can turn complexity into clarity, uncover the right problems, challenge assumptions, and take ownership from 0→1.

You’ll think beyond individual screens and flow to design scalable product frameworks and intuitive, high-utility experiences. You’ll own both design strategy and execution while actively contributing to product direction.

What You’ll Own

- Own the end-to-end design journey from understanding the problem and defining the opportunity to designing, shipping, and refining the product.
- Help determine what should be built, rather than simply executing predefined requirements.
- Turn complex business logic and ambiguous ideas into explicit, scalable product experiences.
- Translate your thinking into strategy briefs, concepts, flows, prototypes, and product specifications.
- Contribute to high-impact decisions around product direction, priorities, and tradeoffs.
- Build clear narratives around user problems, product needs, opportunities, and your reasoning behind solutions.
- Represent design in critical product discussions, using evidence and judgment to influence decisions.
- Use research, data, experimentation, and AI tools where useful to learn and make informed decisions quickly.

The Setting You’ll Work In Speed is a core part of how we work. You’ll be provided with clear product context, requirements, and the information needed to understand the problem.



Your responsibility is to quickly translate that understanding into thoughtful, high-quality product experiences.

We value strong product thinking, but we do not optimize for perfection. Timelines for research, exploration, and design will often be short, so you should be comfortable making decisions quickly, prioritizing what matters, and using AI and other tools to accelerate your process where appropriate.

Brand Positioning & Storytelling: A core requirement for this role. You should understand how to position a product in the market and translate that positioning into a clear, compelling story across the entire product experience.

If you prefer long exploration cycles, or if strong brand positioning and compelling storytelling are not evident in your design work, this role is not the right fit for you.

What We’re Looking For

- Minimum 3+ years of experience designing and shipping digital products, with robust evidence of product thinking.
- Strong systems thinking and the ability to see how individual decisions affect the broader product.
- Ability to navigate ambiguity, question assumptions, prioritize what matters, and make decisions under tight time constraints.
- Ability to balance user needs, business objectives, product strategy, and design quality.
- Clear product storytelling the ability to communicate the “why” behind problems, opportunities, and design decisions.
- A high-ownership, curious, and adaptable mindset: you learn quickly, take initiative, and change direction when new evidence demands it.

We’re looking for someone who wants more than a set of screens to design. You’ll be expected to think like a product owner, operate like a builder, and use design to influence what we build not just how it looks.
