About the role

Our growth and retention metrics are best-in-class among our peers: we have tens of millions in ARR, very low churn, and many years of runway.
We're backed by amazing investors like Y Combinator, Elad Gil, Lachy Groom, and many more!
HOW WE WORK In my previous roles, product teams always consisted of a product manager, a designer, and ~4-5 engineers.

Hi! 👋 I'm Chris https://www.linkedin.com/in/chkrlee/, head of Product Design at Ashby.
At Ashby, you'll be part designer, part product manager, part consultant, and part design system manager (or some combination of the 4!).
We do design differently here, and if that excites you, read on.
75m design exercise and app teardown. The exercise will be a live whiteboarding exercise where we provide a prompt and you show us how you'd break down problems and come up with solutions.
We're being deliberate about building that environment from the ground up.

4+ years of product design experience in desktop SaaS.
Able to think from first principles instead of simply applying the "standard" UX processes.
Can break down complex user problems by asking questions that narrow down the solution space.
Enough experience that your intuition can solve many usability problems without having to rely solely on data & metrics or conducting user research.
Curious & resourceful enough to come up with creative solutions and de-risk them appropriately.
Strong skills in layout, navigation, IA, UI, and interaction design.
Strong visual design skills and obsession with craft & details.
As a bonus, you have experience at an early-stage startup or have spent time as a solo designer on a team.

Consulting for engineers who need help structuring layout, typography, flows, etc.

Competitive salary and equity.
10-year exercise window for stock options.
You shouldn't feel pressure to purchase stock options if you leave Ashby -do it when you feel financially comfortable.
Unlimited PTO with four weeks recommended per year.
Expect "Vacation?" in our one-on-one agenda until you start taking it.
Twelve weeks of fully paid family leave in the US.
$100/month education budget with more expensive items (like conferences) covered with manager approval.
If you're in the US, top-notch health insurance for you and your dependents with all premiums covered by us.

We're looking for a versatile, intrinsically motivated designer who is excited to contribute to rethinking how modern software is designed.
Our unique approach is working - we're growing >100% year-over-year and have notable customers like Notion, Linear, Shopify, and Snowflake.
We are committed to a diverse and inclusive workforce and welcome people from all backgrounds, experiences, perspectives, and abilities.
