About the role

  • Ownership through implementation - you don't hand off and walk away.
  • Candor in critique - we give and receive honest feedback because it's the fastest path to better work.

Responsibilities

  • Own the design of a product area end to end - strategy, flows, edge cases, and shipped quality.
  • Design flows, not just screens - identify where users will get stuck before they do, and treat self-service (onboarding, activation, recovery) as a primary discipline.
  • Close the gap between design and shipped product - pair with engineering during implementation, catch regressions, and contribute directly in code: Pluma components, production UI fixes, interaction prototypes.
  • Contribute actively to Pluma, our design system - use it well, propose extensions thoughtfully, fix inconsistencies, and step into stewardship of components adjacent to your work.
  • Develop a point of view on AI in your product area - prototype the interaction, not just the screen, and treat uncertainty, latency, and reversibility as real design factors.
  • Partner with PM and Engineering on roadmap and tradeoffs - bring UX into the conversation early, push back when it shortchanges the user, and own the quality of your area over time.
  • Mentor designers earlier in their career through pairing, critique, and the example set by your own work.
  • Strong flow literacy - you design end-to-end experiences across states, edge cases, and recovery paths, not isolated screens.
  • Closes the design-to-implementation gap - partners tightly with engineering, catches regressions, and contributes directly in code. Code fluency is a real and growing expectation at this level.
  • Has designed or shipped AI-involved interfaces and can talk specifically about how you handled uncertainty, latency, or reversibility - even at small scale.

Requirements

  • 5+ years of product design experience with a portfolio demonstrating craft, ownership, and a clear point of view on shipped work.
  • B2B SaaS experience with complex, data-driven interfaces - you understand systems, not just screens.

Compensation

  • We believe in transparency.
  • Starting salary for this role is $171k-$193k USD (or equivalent in local currency) depending on experience and subject to market rate adjustment.
  • We know our people are what make us great, and we're committed to taking great care of them.
  • No gotchas, no trick questions - just a clear, human process designed to help both of us make an informed decision.
  • Recruiter Screen - 30 minutes
