WHAT WE'RE LOOKING FOR

• At least 5 years of digital product design experience, including work as a primary or sole designer at a startup
• A portfolio showcasing shipped web app product work, strong craft, clarity, and thoughtful problem-solving
• Deep Figma fluency, including product design and design system work
• Experience designing end-to-end flows for products serving multiple audiences, and building design systems from scratch or at an early stage
• Ability to work autonomously with minimal direction and communicate effectively with distributed teams
• Experience with marketplaces or platforms is valuable, as is work on AI-powered products, conversational interfaces, recruiting, HR technology, or talent marketplaces
