Job Description

This position will drive the design of this company's data-in features, which focus on complex scientific workflows and structured data entry. This person will apply strong UX foundations to build out critical design components for these features and workflows, which will be integrated into the company's design systems.

Responsibilities:

  • Product Design & Systems Thinking: Apply strong UX foundations to design scalable, intuitive workflows for complex scientific and research applications.
  • Cross-Functional Collaboration: Partner closely with Product Managers, Engineers, and Scientists to craft solutions that simplify intricate user journeys.
  • User-Centered Solutions: Synthesize user problems into elegant, consumer-grade solutions that optimize workflows and data input experiences.
  • End-to-End Ownership: Lead design projects from concept to execution, ensuring a high standard of usability and aesthetics.
  • Communication & Influence: Effectively communicate design decisions and rationale across teams and stakeholders.

What You Bring:

  • 4+ years in SaaS product design with a track record of shipping great products with complex workflows
  • Strong systems-thinking mindset to break down and simplify intricate processes.
  • Deep UX expertise from academic training (Bachelors or Masters in UI/UX) or industry experience.
  • A refined, consumer-grade aesthetic sense in design execution.
  • Strong communication and collaboration skills.
  • Local to the Bay Area.
  • Big plus: Experience designing for scientists, researchers, or data-heavy domains.
  • Big plus: Experience in startups or startup-like environments.
