Senior Product Designer Highlights:
We’re seeking a Senior Product Designer who is proactive and unafraid to challenge our design process. Someone who is always driving towards finding simple, easy-to-use, intuitive, and elegant solutions for complex designs. You’ll help define the overall user experience end-to-end, from researching to designing the interactions that bring our product UIs to life.

- Accelerate team efficiency by improving processes and workflows both within product design and within wider cross-functional product teams.
- Sweat the small stuff – understand that the little details are what make people love a product.

- Contribute to and positively shape the organization’s culture through collaboration, feedback, and process iteration.
