What the job involves
- As a Sr. Product Designer in the Product group at UpMetrics, you will lead end-to-end UX/UI design for our core products, from research through implementation, contributing to feature improvements and designing entirely new features and product lines.
- Your research will directly impact product strategy through deep understanding of our market, user needs, and behaviors.
- Throughout the development cycle, you will work closely with a product manager and engineering lead as a peer and deliver work as part of a development pod.
- We are looking for a highly engaged, self-organizing, high autonomy individual to take genuine ownership of their product designs
- This is a great opportunity for someone who wants to get more visibility into the business of product development and form product design ideas before the product development lifecycle begins, while remaining focused on product design and knowing your work will have an impact on the world

Application process
- The interview process includes a discussion of your portfolio and 2 design exercises.
- The first design exercise involves a 10 min presentation in which you critique a product of your choice and then answer questions about it – you will prepare this ahead of time.
- The second design exercise is a 1 hour live design exercise in which you work with a PM to solve a design problem using a combination of Figma/Figjam – no preparation is required and the design problem will not be related to any UpMetrics projects.
- Were trying to strike a balance between using these exercises to help find the strongest candidate and keeping how much time you spend on them to a minimum
