About the role

  • You set the direction for both over the next few quarters and do the hands-on work yourself.
  • These users are hands-on, in-the-field, heavy daily users who'll give you direct feedback.

Responsibilities

  • You own portal and viewer design from research through to what ships and what changes afterward.
  • Set the design direction for the portal and the viewer one to three quarters out
  • Keep the portal coherent as two teams ship for two different audiences, and decide when a workflow should be shared and when a vertical genuinely needs its own
  • Establish the design patterns for the portal and extend the design system as you go
  • Plan and run your own research and usability testing, and use what you learn to change designs, and roadmaps when the evidence is strong enough
  • Work the hard tradeoffs through with engineers, and stay involved during the build so what ships matches the intent
  • Understand how your design decisions move adoption, conversion, retention and cost to serve, and defend your recommendations in those terms, including when the best experience is not the best business decision
  • Tell the rest of the company what design is doing and why, without waiting to be asked
  • Watch how the work performs after launch and decide what to invest in further, fix, or drop
  • Planitar is committed to building a diverse, equitable and inclusive workplace where different perspectives are valued and everyone has the opportunity to thrive.

Requirements

  • 6+ years designing digital products, with a portfolio that shows craft and the thinking behind it
  • You have owned a product area, not only a queue of features.
  • Experience with complex or technical B2B software.
  • You have mentored other designers, and changed a senior stakeholder's mind by making a good case
  • You have owned a product area, not only a queue of features. Work that spanned several teams and took more than a quarter to land
  • Strong Figma skills, including component systems and prototyping, and you build and extend design systems
  • You run your own research, and can point to a design that changed because of what you learned
  • Experience with complex or technical B2B software. Dense data, real workflows, expert users
  • You have designed for more than one kind of customer in a single product, and have a view on when to converge and when to diverge
  • Comfortable designing for professionals and for the public. The portal is a working tool; the viewer is seen by consumers
  • You ship, and you have a view on when a design is good enough to go
  • You want to help build a design practice rather than join one that already runs itself

Skills

  • Your job is to serve both well without letting the product fragment into two separate tools.

Benefits

  • 100% employer-paid flexible benefits plan
  • Comprehensive Health & Dental coverage
  • Health Spending Account (HSA) or Lifestyle Spending Account (LSA) options
