Loom Design

Design is a vital organization at Loom. By radically improving the experience of recording and sharing quick video messages, we are creating a new and more human way of communicating at work. This requires us to think big and to discover and explore uncharted territory. That's why we're focused on building a diverse, and resilient design organization, full of talented people who love feedback and collaboration. Loom is a distributed-first workplace: we're hiring the best Designers that live and work anywhere in the continental US and Canada.

The Role

We're hiring a Product Designer to join our team. You'll work on things like: how we share, search, recommend, and discover Looms, as well as how we think about the future of the Loom platform and creator tools — as well as how we manage teams at scale. You'll help own the mission of helping teams create organizational knowledge, and fostering meaningful and humane communication at work, reaching millions of people that already use Loom every day.

We are currently hiring remotely in the United States and Canada

Your Responsibilities

• Help make Loom a compelling and engaging destination for video messaging at work. Design features like hashtags, feed-building, activity streams, recommendations, search, and team management.
• As a designer, you'll work alongside an incredibly talented team of Product Management, Engineering and Product Marketing.
• Contribute to and help advance the Lens Design System
• Collaborate closely with Brand Designers, Researchers and Writers inside the design organization to help make Loom feel like a delightful continuum across every touchpoint of the customer experience.
• Work cross-functionally across the company with Product, Engineering, Research, and Marketing partners to represent the Design team, with significant contribution to roadmapping, sprint planning, and product and design Slack channels.
• Be a mentor to newer designers and future interns, and help guide the design team's work through your own example and through feedback in critique and design reviews.
• Help recruit and interview new Designers, and actively improve our inclusive design hiring process.

What We're Looking For

• Prior experience in Product Design organizations that have shipped software to users, working closely cross-functional teammates to develop the strategy and rationale for features.
• An outstanding portfolio, with presentable case studies showcasing a foundation in typography, interaction and visual design, product sense, and idea generation.
• Experience collaborating with a diverse team in a rapid growth environment. Huge plus if you’ve worked with distant teammates and understand the communication patterns of working with highly distributed teams.
• A learning and growth mindset: Our team size and our design process will evolve and change many times over the next few years. We strive to continuously improve and integrate what we learn — from our work and with each other.
• Experience with prototyping as a means to explore and convey design solutions.
• Empathy and resilience: empathy for our customers, to build a product and a service they’ll love. Empathy for our coworkers, to build a workplace we’ll love. Resilience to be able to take feedback from anywhere, consider it gracefully, and fold it into your thinking and your work.
• Excellent written, verbal, and storytelling skills.

How We Work

Freedom and Flexibility: At Loom, we believe work is an act, not a place. When we disengage work from a location, we can accommodate a broad range of life choices. You can choose to work from home or while you travel. If you are in the Bay Area, you can drop by our San Francisco office on 2nd and Market St. We are able to hire across the United States and Canada and are continuing to expand our international presence. And you are free to move within a country without any adjustment to compensation.

Engaging Workday: The key to an engaging workday is finding the right balance between different ways to work sync, async, text and video. Loom makes it easier for us to say what we mean without having to schedule a zoom meeting or struggle to find the right words. And using async communication allows us to free up time for deep work every day. We believe there's a place for sync time - often a conversation on Zoom is exactly what is needed. For team meetings, this ‘sync time’ is typically between 9AM-Noon PT given where the overlap of timezones where Loommates are located.

Work-Rest Balance: The way we balance the fast-paced demands of a high-growth startup and sustainability is making rest a priority. We offer a flexible PTO policy so you're able to take time off when you need it. We also go fully offline once a year between Christmas and New Year (and twice during the Pandemic). Rest is also part of the workday, not just during PTO. Taking a break for personal commitments, whether it's watching the kids or getting some exercise is a natural part of the workday.

Social Connection: Relationships and connectedness matter. We are intentional about building trust and relationships through unique, shared experiences. Our virtual workspace keeps us connected day-to-day whether it's through Looms celebrating wins or our buzzing Slack communities. Loommates are able to meet in person with their teams at least twice a year purely for fun. We have also built local offices for those who want to work or meet in person, starting with San Francisco and New York City.
