About the jobDesigner EngineerAbout The Team:
Our design team is a nimble group that spans user research, user experience, prototyping, visual design, brand design, design systems and frontend engineering. We believe design is equal parts form and function. We ideate a lot. We prototype a lot. We put our users first and continually aim to make our product more intuitive and delightful to use. We run cross functional workshops to influence design thinking across the company. We have a ‘ship it’ mentality and have a passion for always measuring and learning, care about building easy to use products, and have a knack for using data to make better design decisions.

Work directly on the UI and UX of our web products

Document our components and UX patterns, how they work, how designers can use them in Figma, how engineers can use them in code
