Head of Product Design
Garner’s mission is to reconfigure how the US healthcare system works. By helping employers restructure their healthcare benefit to provide clear incentives and data-driven insights, we direct employees to higher quality and lower cost healthcare providers. The result is that patients get better health outcomes while doctors are rewarded for practicing well, not performing more procedures. We are backed by top-tier venture capital firms, are growing rapidly and looking to expand our team.
We’re looking for a Head of Product Design to join our team. This individual will report to Garner’s Head of Product, own the end-to-end design process, and be prepared to build out a team as the company grows. We’re looking for someone with strong experience designing consumer-facing products.
Garner is headquartered in NYC, but this position is also available for individuals who prefer remote work.
Responsibilities will include:
- Own the design process, from research and ideation to execution and iteration.
- Be a “player-coach” that is hands-on with design while also building, managing and mentoring a small team
- Develop a deep understanding of our member’s needs and motivations, practicing empathy at every step and creating products for users who are seeking seamless healthcare recommendations for themselves or family members.
- Work closely with engineers to evolve and expand our design system across platforms.
- Shape and participate in our user research and testing (generative & evaluative).
- Play a key role in shaping the product strategy and direction
The ideal candidate has:
- 6+ years of relevant experience shipping consumer-facing products, including mobile products on iOS and/or Android.
- A highly refined aesthetic sense and a preference for simple and clean experiences. You design products that not only meet user needs, but are delightful and engaging.
- A humble and user-focused approach to design. You are constantly challenging your own assumptions and crave feedback through research and metrics.
- Experience working with Figma components, libraries, and functional prototypes.
- A desire to be a part of our mission to improve the healthcare system.
