About the role

  • Own end-to-end product design on high-impact features, from research and exploration to polished delivery.
  • Redesign and improve critical tools such as our mobile dashboard, utility account integrations, and HVAC system control wizards.
  • Shape how Runwise handles alerts, sensors, and system controls—everything from high-level dashboards to the nitty-gritty of setpoints.
  • Collaborate closely with PMs, engineers, and building staff to ship quickly while solving real-world problems.
  • Conduct user research and field testing, ensuring designs work effectively in basements, boiler rooms, and 40-year-old equipment environments.
  • Maintain and evolve our design system—keeping it clean, consistent, and easy to use.
  • Balance speed and intentionality—delivering iterative improvements while driving toward elegant long-term solutions.

Requirements

  • A perfectionist when it comes to delivering simple, usable, and beautiful product experiences.
  • An incredible eye for detail who also holds the team accountable for gorgeous user experiences.
  • Experienced in shipping real product design work (not just polished portfolios).
  • Comfortable designing for complex systems, operational tools, or real-world dashboards.
  • Skilled at shaping copy and flows as much as typography and layout.
  • Thrives in a fast-paced environment with lightweight process and heavy ownership.
  • Curious about buildings, HVAC systems, and how real people use tools in the field.
  • Bonus points if you’ve worked on complex operational tools or thought “this control screen could be better.”
