All employees are expected to have strong communication skills. They should be able to concisely and accurately share knowledge with their teammates.

Responsibilities
Contribute perspective gained from experience to design end-to-end experiences across web, mobile, and other platforms
Deeply understanding user necessities, behaviors, and emergent use-cases
Rapidly exploring, prototyping, and iterating by using AI-assisted tools
Using qualitative methods to define and guide decisions

You are comfortable working in rapid work environments
Embrace new design and engineering workflows including AI-assisted tooling
Care about the minute details while maintaining velocity
Have an interest in redefining systems for any audience
What we prefer
A strong portfolio that can demonstrate your work just from the first page
Our product, design, and engineering team will review each one.
Experience designing consumer-facing products at scale
Familiarity with React, Swift, and React Native (subject to change) AND Figma, but not negatively considered if without
Experience working closely with users, engineers alike
Pride themselves on delivering results swiftly, often faster than their peers; we ship extremely fast here, and with that we must all maintain velocity
An eye for product sense, with an ability to empathize with users, anticipate what they actually need, and translate that into features that deliver actual value
Our interview process
We do not believe in traditional interview processes, and a practical experience is better for us to gauge your experience.
Work trials are paid generously and we may fly you out to New York City to integrate with the team and the office.
