ABOUT YOU 

You are a purpose driven individual searching for a role that will enable you to have a positive impact in a growing startup environment. To find a company and culture that aligns with your values and believes in building community above and beyond just making money. You want to be an intricate part of designing and creating the user experience for the technology that will help enable all kids to have safe and amazing sports experiences. To work for a company that listens to your ideas, values your contributions and cares about your personal and professional growth. You have a passion for leveraging leading-edge technologies to create complete customer solutions, enjoy getting out into the field to understand people, and have experience bringing new product ideas to life using a data-driven design approach. You're an excellent communicator and can clearly articulate your design decisions. You have a user- and data-focused design mentality and are constantly looking to sharpen your instincts through user feedback and data insight. You have the ability to think at a high level about product strategy and vision. You have experience in building and shipping applications or software. You have a portfolio featuring examples of interaction design work.

ABOUT THE ROLE 

We're looking for an experienced Senior Product Designer to help us invent new ways of connecting people to the communities and activities they love. If you're someone who is passionate about developing strategies based on insights from real people and can turn those insights into beautifully designed prototypes and products, both interactions and visuals, then this may be the role for you.

RESPONSIBILITIES

  • Be the senior designer for a cross-functional product team leading the end-to-end product design process, shipping features across native mobile and web platforms (research, wireframes, prototypes, flows, detailed design specs, managing the visual QA and implementation process)
  • Be autonomous. You'll take full ownership of your work and you take responsibility for every detail each step of the way
  • Inspire what's possible by quickly producing multiple concepts, knowing when to apply attention to detail and when to make low-fi sketches and prototypes
  • Communicate clearly to present your work at different stages
  • Actively participate in design critiques to give and receive feedback from other designers to make your work stronger
  • Ability to think long- and short-term to meet the constraints of a continuous release process while iterating toward a future vision
  • Partner with the team’s product manager to articulate the long, medium, and short term opportunities, facilitating alignment exercises when needed (e.g. design sprints, workshops, planning)
  • Build a deep understanding of LeagueApps, its design systems, inter-dependencies, and product roadmap as well as our product development process

Qualifications: 

  • 3 to 5 years of experience in Product Design (mobile web and app experience a plus)
  • Product Design experience in a growing SaaS startup preferred.  
  • Data-informed: Define metrics for success and failure; ability to use quantitative and qualitative data to back up assumptions and make decisions. 
  • Team player: Strong, demonstrated ability to rally and bring varying functional teams together, and break through stalled decision making. 
  • Sound business & strategy judgment, proven ability to influence others, and strong analytical thinking skills are critical to success in this position. 

Working at LeagueApps:

  • Equity Grants
  • Medical, Dental, Vision, and Parental leave coverage
  • We'll pay for your sports leagues (and your kids sports leagues)!
  • Cell Phone and Gym Subsidies, Citibike, and discounted gym memberships
  • Culture and work environment that emphasizes teamwork, passion, learning, and fun.  Check out our Instagram to see for yourself
  • Social impact opportunities through our FundPlay initiative that includes events, volunteering, and grant-makings

We are committed to equal employment opportunity regardless of race, color, ancestry, religion, sex, national origin, sexual orientation, age, citizenship, marital status, disability, gender, gender identity or expression, or veteran status. LeagueApps is proud to be an equal opportunity workplace.
