Founding Product Designer

About the Role

Join an early-stage B2B SaaS team as its first dedicated product designer, shaping the user experience and design language of a technical hiring platform. You will work across recruiter, engineer, and candidate experiences, with a mix of product design and hands-on frontend implementation.

What You'll Do

• Learn how each user group interacts with the platform and identify friction in assessment and hiring workflows.

• Build and maintain a consistent design system across the product.

• Use product analytics and session recordings to identify opportunities and guide design improvements.

• Work with engineering, product, and go-to-market teams to create consistent experiences across product surfaces.

• Redesign the marketing website, owning its information architecture, visual design, and frontend implementation.

What We're Looking For

• Two to four years of product design experience, ideally in an early-stage startup or as an early design hire.

• A combination of UX and visual design skills in Figma and production frontend coding skills, especially TypeScript.

• Experience creating and applying a cohesive design system across a product, with a portfolio showing shipped product work.

• Technical fluency and the ability to collaborate closely with engineers.

• Experience with product analytics tools such as PostHog.

• Background designing non-consumer software, ideally for hardware, engineering, simulation, CAD, or developer tools.

• Comfort working cross-functionally and shipping improvements through short research and delivery cycles.
