Product Designer, Fellow

• This role requires a hacker mindset, a highly tactical and detail-oriented approach, and a GSD attitude. You’ll be joining a small, multi-disciplinary design team, which means you will play an impactful role in shaping our product and design process before the team scales.
• But don’t worry, you won’t be alone - we believe design decisions do not solely rest on a designer’s shoulders. Every teammate has a different expertise and background that can be leveraged as an extension of the design team
• We’re looking for multi-disciplinary designers who know how to find a balance between business objectives and user needs. We are a small, fast-moving product team that aims to build lean, practical and delightful features to improve our customer’s workday
• Innate talent: You have a strong understanding of basic design principles that come as second-nature in any creative scenario. You have a passion for creating beautiful, consistent, pixel-perfect designs
• System thinker: You can see an interface from a holistic solution down to the individual re-purposed elements that make it. You understand that every decision has a domino-effect and can either be clean-cut or a compromise
• Flexible: You are flexible in your approach, allowing for changes and improvements during the final design execution and development phases. You have a strategic mindset that is focused on shipping the most important aspects of a feature to improve the UX of Fellow
• Creative: You can lean in to a more traditional visual design role and understand how to apply a brand across several contexts for product and marketing collateral. You can achieve an expected result with a dash of unexpected creativity
• Great communicator: You have strong communication skills when articulating design decisions, discussing requirements, processing feedback, and collaborating cross-functionally
• Committed: You see projects through from an initial conversation about requirements all they way to getting user feedback on the final product. This means ensuring the vision that was created in the design phase carries through development and seamlessly into the product
• Independent: You know when to bring others in to collaborate on a problem, get answers to your questions or get feedback at certain milestones in your tasks, but you are also an independent worker that can self-manage their day-to-day and be reliable to complete assigned tasks
• Customer-Obsessed: You understand that the best UX results are a product of understanding our user’s pain points and needs. Part of your process is to dig into insights, familiar user patterns, real-world use cases and gather feedback directly from customers as a foundation of knowledge before finalizing a solution
