  • Leverage and contribute to our design system

What we’re looking for

  • Experience in B2B SaaS working with large enterprise customers.

  • T-shaped designers, expertise in one core area of design with strong skills in other areas of design.

  • Interest and ability to run research to evaluate your design decisions.

  • Excellent communication and presentation skills.

  • Proficiency in design and prototyping tools (we use Figma).

  • Strong collaboration skills to work with cross-functional partners.

  • Strong leadership skills and a passion for user-centered design.
