Senior Product Designer

Proof is the world's first identity-assured transaction management platform and we are on a mission to digitize trust for all of life’s most critical transactions. Developed by the same market leaders and experts who brought notarization online with Notarize℠, Proof offers trust in a digital world by verifying identities and securing transactions to protect businesses and their customers. Since 2015, we’ve completed many of the world’s first digital commerce transactions, including the first online real estate closing, online mortgage closing, online auto sale, and online will and we're still just getting started!

As a Senior Product Designer, you’ll work in lockstep with our product management and engineering teams. You’ll leverage your visual and interactive design skills to solve user problems and address business needs. Day-to-day, you’ll work through ideation, prototyping, testing, design frameworks, and concept visualization. 

You will be the design lead on our Business team, crafting experiences for our customers across a variety of industries, from real estate to financial services to automotive. You’ll balance design projects that benefit self-serve customers and promote their activation in our products, as well as large, established customers with complex workflows and use cases. You’ll be a member of our centralized UX team and report to a Lead Product Designer.

We're looking for someone who:

• Has 4+ years of experience as a product designer for responsive web apps, solving complex problems with thoughtful solutions. Specifically, you have experience designing in a B2B or B2B2C space, working to drive growth, activation, and retention. You’ve designed UIs that include complex formflows, tables, and more for small businesses or enterprises. 
• Is highly skilled in UX design and UI design. At Proof, our product designers are responsible for full-stack designing, from initial discovery to concept ideation to final UI designs. You can express your thinking at varying levels of fidelity – from hand sketches to rough prototypes to high fidelity mockups.
• Has a good understanding of UX research best practices, including running usability tests and leading customer interviews. You’ll be able to collaborate with our Principal UX Researcher to be strategic in your research and level up your skill set.
• Is comfortable pivoting quickly if business needs change or if new information is presented. You can balance different user needs and business priorities, and you can pull together concepts and iterate on designs based on feedback or changing scope.
• Designs with results in mind and without an ego. You are comfortable taking feedback from other designers, PMs, and engineers. You don’t get too attached to a specific design direction, and are eager to measure the success of a project based on its performance.
• Can speak to the problems you’ve solved and how your design solutions lead to an impact on the business metrics or user behaviors you were trying to drive. You are able to show how you’ve evolved your solutions in response to qualitative end user feedback and/or quantitative metrics.
• Has experience partnering with front and backend engineers and can engage thoughtfully with the engineers you work with. You collaborate with engineers through implementation and launch. Understand the importance of accessibility in your designs. It’s part of your design process to make sure that your designs are accessible
• Is eager to learn and will tackle whatever project comes your way, especially those that give you a chance to stretch and improve your skills
• Has experience contributing to a design system on a small team. You’ve built reusable components in Figma that have been used by your teammates, and you have an interest in this area of product design.

When teammates describe you, here’s what they say:

• Your design solutions move the needle. You are excited when your work is addressing high-priority business problems and user pain points, and you are eager to influence metrics and monitor success.
• You have a strong design process. You’ve got some go-to approaches in your toolbox for how you solve design problems and you’re willing to try out new ones depending on the project and the needs of the team you’re working with. You know when to use the right level of fidelity, you are able to iterate quickly, and you generate lots of ideas for how to solve a wide variety of design challenges
• You work well cross-functionally. You have experience leading discussions with PMs, engineers, and stakeholders to help clarify goals, define the problem you’re solving, and brainstorm solutions with team members. You refine your thinking as you design by sharing work early and often and by collaborating closely with other designers, PMs, and engineers. 
• You have a product-led growth mindset. You’re driven by the idea that product and UX can drive user activation, retention, and engagement. You have experience working on teams in which product-led growth, experimentation, and incremental releases have been a focus. You use insights from qualitative and quantitative user data to inform your decisions and measure success. 
• You love opportunities to engage directly with the audience you’re designing for. Concept testing and feedback are key parts of your process. You enjoy diving into tools like FullStory, LogRocket, or Hotjar to gauge how users are interacting with the features you’ve designed or the product’s existing features. You have used tools like Appcues or Pendo to layer on guidance or messages directly to user groups in the product, and see the value of communicating with users in this way
• You care about achieving a high level of quality and consistency in your designs. You don’t just think about individual screens, you think about each step in the user's journey, and your designs and specs reflect that attention to detail. You are comfortable working in Figma for designing and prototyping, and you are experienced at designing within a design system. 
• You’re a team player. Where you’ve got skills and expertise to share, you look for opportunities to teach others and help teammates level up.

• Own It: We embrace the responsibility that comes with supporting life's most important transactions. When a problem arises we relentlessly pursue the solution with a 'Yes before no' attitude. Because every problem and every transaction is treated like it's our own
