Squarespace is hiring a Senior Product Designer to support the development of the internal products and business applications that power our organization’s growth across Customer Operations, Marketing, Finance, Strategy and more. You will establish a design presence within our internal engineering teams, and help build out and lead a design team around them as the company continues to expand. With less constraints than our customer-facing products, we are looking for a designer who will make internal products their own. You should be excited to try out new things and help develop our style, internally.

Teams at Squarespace are deeply collaborative, and each member has wide responsibilities and freedom to act. You will be challenged in an ambitious, ever-changing organization that values vision, execution, persistence, and flexibility. You will take ownership of your area by solving complex problems in simple, elegant ways, building out processes and tools along the way.

  • Continually seek to understand the capabilities and technical constraints of the systems with which you’ll be working
  • Deliver polished comps, flows, and assets to team members
  • Participate in user research and testing, ensuring usability and product consistency
  • Follow both large and small projects through, beyond delivery
  • Collaborate on evolving our style guides
  • Recruit and manage designers as needed to support the efforts of the team

Qualifications

  • 5+ years of digital/product design experience
  • 2+ years of management
  • Well versed in, and opinionated about visual and user experience design
  • Well rounded understanding of information architecture
  • Great taste and aesthetic sensibility
  • Idealistic, yet pragmatic
  • Love of iterative development
  • Experience developing great software
  • Experience using tools like Sketch and InVision
  • A solid understanding of how web and mobile applications work
  • A deep-seated awareness of what makes a great product experience

A portfolio of relevant work is required for consideration. It should illustrate your involvement and how you contributed to solving specific problems.
