What the job involves

- While the position previously emphasized design systems, we're broadening our scope to encompass a more holistic approach to product design
- Remote candidates are welcome, although being based in Los Angeles is preferred
- Lead and execute end-to-end design projects, enhancing user experience across our digital platform
- Collaborate with product management and engineering teams to ideate, prototype, and launch feature enhancements and new functionalities
- Utilize a broad range of design skills to solve complex problems and improve user engagement and satisfaction
- Drive user research and usability studies to inform design decisions and product strategy
- Ensure a cohesive and intuitive user experience, drawing on principles of design thinking and user-centered design
Our take
Excess inventory is one of the biggest pain points for modern retailers. Ghost solves this problem by making it easier for retailers to buy and sell excess inventory discreetly and sustainably.
With retailers wasting around $500 billion a year on excess inventory, demand for solutions like Ghost's is sky-high. The company has also made good on this demand, emerging from stealth mode in 2022 and about $66 million in funding to date. Ghost, which functions in much the same way as eBay, has benefited hugely from its founder's prior experience in the apparel industry.
Ghost's clear focus on sustainability and discretion has broad market appeal, especially for large-scale retailers looking to reduce waste and improve their public image. If Ghost can continue to attract such clients, it could scale at an impressive pace in the coming years.
