About Us

Profitable B2B SaaS company, teams are based out of North America, but this role is remote from Canada. We're only open to Product Designers that don't require relocation and are eligible to work in Canada :)

We're one of the top no-code data segmentation platforms that help marketing teams filter data and run targeted campaigns without writing code. We help our clients better understand their customers and improve their ROI. Some of our customers include Google, Indeed, and The Boston Red Sox.

What You’ll Do

As our Lead Product Designer, you'll be working directly with the leadership team, engineering and our customers. You'll be leading product design on our core web platform (no mobile just yet). This is an exciting opportunity to leverage your experience in taking a successful B2B SaaS application to the next level (with many active users).

Our Web Tech Stack: Ruby on Rails, Python, Typescript, Figma, Storybook, AWS, GCP

How we work:

- Collaborative team! Lots of new interesting complex design work available

- End to end design, from conception, low fidelity all the way up to high fidelity

- We build for the long term, we're already profitable and operate at the enterprise level

- 100% remote, most folks work in EST and we have a tech hub in Toronto

- Inspire the team by bringing new ideas to the table, leading design sprints and advocating for our users

Qualifications:

- Someone with an entrepreneurial spirit (low ego, highly intelligent, and a quick learner) and can work in an ambiguous environment

- You’re an expert in the fundamentals: visual design, interaction design, and information architecture.
