About the company
Our client is a fast-growing software company.
The role
Raydar is recruiting for this role on behalf of our client. Serve as the first dedicated designer on a small team, shaping how a multi-audience software product looks, feels and behaves. Blend design craft with hands-on front-end coding, and partner closely with leadership, engineering, product and go-to-market colleagues to ship quickly.
What you'll do
- Get to know the product deeply across every type of user and pinpoint where people run into friction.
- Create and maintain shared visual and interaction standards, tidying up inconsistencies that piled up while the team shipped without a design owner.
- Review usage analytics and session recordings to learn what works, then turn those findings into concrete improvements.
- Collaborate with engineering, product and go-to-market colleagues so the experience feels coherent on every screen.
- Redesign and build the company marketing site ahead of launch, from page structure and navigation through visuals to front-end code.
Requirements
What we're looking for
- 2 to 4 years of product design experience, including time as an early or founding designer at a startup.
- Strong technical fluency and comfort communicating with engineers.
- Experience designing software for technical or hardware-related products.
- Skill in Figma for UX and visual work, plus production TypeScript coding, shown in a polished portfolio of shipped work.
- Experience creating reusable component libraries and guidelines and keeping a whole product aligned to them.
- Familiarity with product analytics tools for guiding design decisions.
- Clear communication across functions.
- Comfort with the fast pace of an early-stage startup, including occasional extra hours.
- Based in San Francisco and able to work in the office 3 to 4 days per week.
