Quartzy is seeking a talented Senior Product Designer (E-Commerce) to join our Product team to help us create new, magical shopping experiences for our customers. You’ll have a chance to play a major part in growing our product organization as our company scales.

Our software combines lab resource management and eCommerce, producing a unique value in this large market, returning time to researchers who can focus on their next discoveries. Our customers range from wine makers, to food/ag companies, to companies working on COVID testing and therapies. We are humbled every day to serve them.
About You:
Our customers are doing some of the coolest work in the world(some are literally attempting to cure cancer), and you are excited about making their lives easier by building seamless shopping experiences. You have an insatiable curiosity about why customers behave in certain ways, and an instinct on what to build to solve their core problems. You can map user flows in your sleep and understand where bottlenecks or pain points arise. You are an expert in design systems, but know when to break the rules. You adroitly interpret qualitative and quantitative data, using them to iterate toward effortlessly usable solutions. You are just as excited to work with a team on building a company as you are to work on any one particular feature, and understand how design fits in helping all teams achieve their objectives.

- Design beautiful, intuitive experiences and interfaces that make the shopping experience on Quartzy as seamless as possible
