About the role
- 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
Requirements
- A senior product designer with 5+ years of experience
- Familiarity with B2B SaaS is preferred, though for outstanding candidates this is not a strict requirement
- 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
Benefits
