Product Designer, Blackbird

• You’re a visionary thinker who brings fresh ideas and sharp product instincts to the table — helping shape not just how things look, but what gets built and why
• You care deeply about how digital interactions feel in the hand — the timing, responsiveness, and motion that make an experience delightful
• 3–5 years of product design experience: You’ve worked on digital products within cross-functional teams and know how to ship real things with real constraints
• Interaction craft: You care how things feel — not just how they look. You sweat the microinteractions, transitions, and behavioral details that make an experience sing
• Figma mastery: You’re organized, thoughtful, and efficient — from components and prototyping to clean documentation that others can follow with ease
• Strong visual fundamentals: You have a sharp eye for typography, layout, hierarchy, and color — and use them to create clarity and cohesion
• Systems thinking: You design for scale and consistency, not just isolated screens. You think in patterns and how things fit together
• Clear communicator: You share your thinking early and often — with teammates, PMs, engineers, and other stakeholders
• Always learning: You’re humble, curious, and open to feedback — excited to grow with the team
• Fast and focused: You’re comfortable moving quickly and producing a high volume of thoughtful work in an evolving environment
• Motion fluency: You understand the basics of animation and prototyping, and how motion can enhance usability and delight
• Accessibility awareness: You aim to create inclusive experiences and are familiar with foundational accessibility principles
