We're looking for a Senior Product Designer with deep experience designing and shipping high-quality software products. You combine strong product thinking with exceptional craft, and you're comfortable working across the full lifecycle — from defining ambiguous problems to refining high-fidelity solutions and collaborating closely with engineering through implementation.
