You’ll be part of a highly collaborative creative team that thrives on solving complex problems, leveraging data to enhance user experiences, and driving innovation and performance for our business.

What You'll Do

  • Deliver highly polished visual designs and extend existing design systems
  • Think systematically to optimize UX/UI patterns for ease of use, following design system guidelines
  • Develop subject-matter expertise, understand user problems, business goals, how competitors solve them, and where gaps exist
  • Partner with product managers, engineers, researchers, and content designers to oversee the experience from concept to launch
  • Effectively balance user needs and business goals
  • Assist and support teammates through collaboration, critique, and feedback
  • Build prototypes to validate your designs, then iterate and innovate based on data and findings
  • Be autonomous, crave accountability, and take responsibility for every detail every step of the way

What We're Looking For

  • 3+ years designing consumer-focused tech across various platforms (web, mobile, apps, etc.)
  • You have a killer portfolio that demonstrates a highly polished visual design sense, a clean command over interaction design, typography and usability
  • You’re fluent in Figma. Auto layout, prototyping, using design systems, and utilizing variables are part of your typical workflow
  • You’re a strong communicator and collaborator who’s inspired to deliver great work and bring a strategy to life
  • You are always looking to grow your abilities through feedback and collaboration
  • You are proactive with strong time-management skills, taking initiative for what needs to be done rather than waiting for instructions
  • You enjoy staying flexible and adaptable in a fast-changing environment
  • You deftly juggle multiple projects, setting stakeholder expectations, working individually and collaboratively across teams
  • You love what you do, try to have fun every day, and have a great sense of humor

  • Understand the utility needs and purchase lifecycle of a homeowner or renter
  • Have animation and branding experience
  • Familiarity with paid media and SEO best practices
