Job Level

About the role

  • Lead the end-to-end product design process of our customer-facing product including user research, wireframes, prototypes, flows, detailed design specs and QA.
  • Understand engineering and business constraints to create shippable solutions to users’ problems, and continuously validate the solutions with customers.
  • Lay out a design vision for what's possible by quickly iterating, knowing when to pay attention to detail and when to make low-fi sketches and prototypes.
  • Communicate and present your work clearly and frequently to teammates and company leaders.
  • Take full ownership of your work. That also means getting involved on how to communicate it to customers when releases happen.
  • Think both short- and long-term so that you can meet near-term deadlines while iterating toward a future vision.
  • Facilitate alignment and vision exercises (e.g. design sprints, workshops, planning).
  • Occasionally meet in-person with our customers to run workshops, attend field visits and learn about how our customers are leveraging Overstory in their day-to-day operations
  • Occasionally attend industry events to keep an eye on competition, and learn about how our prospects and customers are thinking about leveraging disrupting technology

Requirements

  • A strong portfolio featuring examples of interaction design work.
  • Experience working at an early-stage startup.
  • Demonstrated experience with end-to-end (hybrid UX and UI) product design for enterprise software.
  • Demonstrated experience working with cross-functional teams (product, engineering and design)
  • You demonstrate an acute skill in turning the complex into dead simple experiences that non-technical users grasp with ease.
  • Exceptional verbal, written and visual communication skills in a fast-paced environment.
  • Experience leading design sprints and building consensus around the best ideas.
  • You take calculated risks: you’re comfortable learning as you go and making mistakes. You know perfect is the enemy of good.
  • A genuine passion for the urgency of solving our climate crisis.
Benefits
  • Flexible working environment with a lot of autonomy. We build our work days around our lives, not the other way around.
  • Other benefits like a remote working budget, an educational budget and time to develop new skills.
  • To be surrounded by an excellent, vibrant, smart team who have each other's back and believe in a culture of openness, tolerance and respect.
  • Equity and a competitive salary.
