Job Title

Lead Product Designer

Job Description

We are seeking an entrepreneurial Product Designer as we build out our founding team. The ideal candidate will be primarily an excellent UI/UX designer, but loves to do the "full stack" from research and user interviewing, to helping with early marketing collateral and brand direction.

This position is based in Austin, TX. We are flexible about working location, but aim to build an in-person, high-energy culture in our founding stages. If that's exciting to you, too, let us know.

Responsibilities

  • Own (and drastically improve) the founder-built Figma, the agency-built brand guide, and the early UX research that has informed our pilots.
  • Conduct user research and usability testing to guide design decisions.
  • Build polished, simple, and effective designs for our target user.
  • Iterate based on feedback and data.
  • Over time, grow the design discipline and team.

Qualifications

  • Strong portfolio showcasing design skills and past projects, especially mobile-first, consumer, and/or social products.
  • Experience working at scaled internet companies.
  • Experience and excitement for data-driven product development.
  • Bonus points for affinity for blue-collar labor, either hands-on experience or prior work with this persona.

Salary & Benefits

  • Competitive base salary
  • Equity / stock options
  • Up to 100% paid premiums for medical, dental, and vision insurance
  • Flexible PTO

Why it works

3×

more interviews than doing it yourself with ChatGPT.

ChatGPT writes a CV and never learns what happened to it. We see every reply. For each CV we know:

  • How it was written, and how the review scored it
  • When we applied, and how long after the posting went up
  • Which posting, which company, which city
  • Who got the interview, and who heard nothing

That is how we know which CVs get called.
