The Role

Job Title: Product designer

Job Responsibilities:

• Partner with Product Management when defining a product or feature’s development lifecycle. You will help identify problems or areas of opportunity in the product for our customers, research how competitors do (or don’t) approach these problems, explore solutions, review with leadership, refine, ship, and support.
• Partner with Engineering and be directly responsible for the product UI and experience. If you see something worthy of a change in the product, take action and propose a solution. Help make our customers fall (even more) in love with Common Room as they use it every day.
• Be comprehensive in your craft — explore a range of solutions, show flows and interactions in detail, consider the corner cases, and aim for precision in your work. Own an entire area of the product, yet jump into other parts at a moment’s notice.
• Lead by example, bias toward action, and don’t strive for perfection. Be self-sufficient yet willing to ask for help early and often.
• Contribute to the Common Room design system to ensure quality, consistency, scalability, and self-service as we move quickly to build out experiences.
• Be agile and flexible as requirements inevitably change, leveraging the knowns and embracing the unknowns. Know when to invent and when to re-use existing patterns and components.

Qualifications:

• A mid-level-to-senior product designer with 5+ years of experience. Familiarity with B2B SaaS is preferred, though for outstanding candidates this is not a strict requirement. 

Skills:

• A clear communicator in writing, in person, and in design.
• Passionate about how design and design thinking can help with how someone understands a problem and executes on solutions when creating a product from zero to one. 
• Able to keep your eye on the prize with the big picture, but can also get into the details of how a product should work with an eye for frictionless user experiences and clear customer value. 
• Able to break down complex problems into simple solutions and execute on them quickly. Proactively move initiatives forward and consistently lead design on products from start-to-finish with limited direction.
• Scrappy and practical with a balanced approach to speed and quality, though can be inventive when the status quo simply isn’t going to work.
• Able to thrive in a dynamic, changing environment and know when to set up or use certain processes (and also when not to — remember, think scrappy).
• Highly collaborative, caring about teammates, and strive to improve the team and culture

Work Style:

• Full-Time
• Remote
