The client

I am seeking a Staff Product Designer for an ed-tech company. Their product is a platform built to drive personal growth and achievement through innovative tools and a user-centric approach. It offers a highly adaptable environment designed to support a wide range of goals, all while maintaining flexibility and ease of use. The focus is on providing a seamless, effective framework that empowers users to make measurable progress in their pursuits. Whether tackling challenges, building expertise, or mastering new areas, this platform ensures a streamlined and productive experience tailored to individual needs.

You will work end-to-end but with a focus on UX. You will have the opportunity to set the foundations, design system, preferred tools, and define the processes and ways of working for this function. Working closely with growth, marketing, and product teams, you will focus on optimizing key user journeys, improving onboarding experiences, and running experiments that help users continue to unlock value.
