The opportunity
Hi! đź‘‹ I'm Chris , head of Product Design at Ashby.
What you'll do
+ years of product design experience in desktop SaaS.
Able to think from first principles instead of simply applying the “standard” UX processes.
Can break down complex user problems by asking questions that narrow down the solution space.
Enough experience that your intuition can solve many usability problems: without having to rely solely on data & metrics or conducting user research.
Curious & resourceful enough to come up with creative solutions and de-risk them appropriately.
Strong skills in layout, navigation, IA, UI, and interaction design.
What they're looking for
- Strong visual design skills and obsession with craft & details.
- As a bonus, you have experience at an early-stage startup or have spent time as a solo designer on a team.
- Creating leverage and impact far and above what you'd see in a typical EPD: product team structure. You won’t be a cog in the wheel, the wheel is not very big!
- Getting to work on all parts of a massive product surface area: spanning many user types, JTBDs, usability challenges, etc. Unlike in other organizations, you won’t be stuck working on one problem for many years.
