About the role

  • Support and lead UX for the Inventory product area, aligning design direction with product goals, operational realities, and user needs.
  • Frame complex inventory challenges into clear, actionable design opportunities across workflows such as counting, ordering, waste, transfers, prep, and reporting.
  • Translate business and operational goals into coherent experience direction without over-indexing on feature-level design.
  • Design end-to-end, production-ready experiences across mobile and web for operational users (e.g., restaurant managers, shift leads, team members).
  • Create clear user flows, interaction patterns, and detailed UI designs that balance usability, speed, accuracy, and real-world constraints.
  • Ensure designs support scalability, accessibility, and consistency while remaining pragmatic for engineering delivery.
  • Act as the primary design partner for Inventory Product and Engineering leads.
  • Facilitate design critiques, working sessions, and reviews to align across disciplines.
  • Communicate tradeoffs clearly, balancing usability, technical feasibility, and delivery constraints.
  • Advocate for user-centered solutions while navigating tradeoffs between operational needs, technical constraints, and business priorities.
  • Design for operational environments where speed, legibility, and error recovery are critical.
  • Incorporate accessibility and usability best practices appropriate for shared, on-premise systems.
  • Anticipate failure modes and "unhappy paths," ensuring the system remains usable under stress or degraded conditions.

Requirements

  • 5+ years of experience in product design, UX design, or interaction design.
  • Proven ability to lead UX strategy and execution for a feature set or product area within a cross-functional team.
  • Strong interaction, systems, and workflow design skills—especially for data-heavy, operational, or task-driven products.
  • Experience designing for mobile-first or mobile-heavy environments.
  • High bar for interaction design, information hierarchy, and usability.
  • Comfortable designing detailed flows, states, and edge cases for real-world use.
  • Strong proficiency with modern design tools (e.g., Figma) and design documentation practices.
  • Demonstrated ability to partner deeply with Product and Engineering.
  • Clear communicator who can explain design rationale and tradeoffs to technical and non-technical audiences.
  • Comfortable operating with autonomy and limited supervision within a defined product area.
