What the job involves

• We’re looking for a Product Designer to play a leading role in shaping our customer-facing product. This is a role for someone entrepreneurial who wants to roll up their sleeves and get their hands dirty with designing a product in its early stages. You’ll work closely with the rest of a dedicated team to build Overstory so that it has a giant impact on the world
• You’ll be embedded in the team responsible for the core experience of our product, tasked with the mission of providing our users with the best-in-class analyses that help them achieve their goals

• Lead the end-to-end product design process of our customer-facing product including user research, wireframes, prototypes, flows, detailed design specs and QA
• Understand engineering and business constraints to create shippable solutions to users’ problems, and continuously validate the solutions with customers
• Lay out a design vision for what's possible by quickly iterating, knowing when to pay attention to detail and when to make low-fi sketches and prototypes
• Communicate and present your work clearly and frequently to teammates and company leaders
• Take full ownership of your work. That also means getting involved on how to communicate it to customers when releases happen
• Think both short- and long-term so that you can meet near-term deadlines while iterating toward a future vision
• Facilitate alignment and vision exercises (e.g. design sprints, workshops, planning)
• Occasionally meet in-person with our customers to run workshops, attend field visits and learn about how our customers are leveraging Overstory in their day-to-day operations
