Overview:
Staff Product Designers at Weedmaps are senior individual contributors who operate with a high degree of autonomy and strategic influence.

- Drive discovery efforts, including research planning, synthesis, and validation
- Use qualitative and quantitative data to inform decisions and measure impact
- Clearly communicate design rationale to diverse stakeholders, influencing decision-making at multiple levels
- Actively mentor senior and mid-level designers through critique, guidance, and knowledge sharing
- Champion design excellence, accessibility, and consistency across platforms (mobile and web)
What you've accomplished:
- 7+ years of professional experience in end-to-end product design
- A strong portfolio demonstrating leadership on complex design initiatives, with clear articulation of impact and decision-making
- Proven ability to independently lead large-scale projects from concept through execution
- Deep experience with usability testing, research synthesis, and data-informed design
