Senior Product Designer - Remote-First, Impactful EdTech

GiveCampus is the world's leading fundraising platform for non-profit educational institutions. Trusted by 1,300+ colleges, universities, and K-12 schools, our mission is to help advance the quality, the affordability, and the accessibility of education. We received a seed investment from Y Combinator in 2015 and have pursued a strategy of'Sustainable Growth' ever since: achieving six consecutive years of profitability and positive cash-flow while more than quadrupling our revenue, our customer base, and our team. In 2022,we raised $50 million to accelerate the next stage of our growth. While we operate at meaningful scale (we've facilitated more than $6 billion in charitable giving), we’re still small relative to the commercial and social good opportunities in front of us. Every GiveCampus employee has a substantial impact on our trajectory, and we're growing to help schools achieve even greater results. Our purpose-driven team of 120+ is located across the US: team members work from anywhere they choose. We have a beautiful 12,000 sf office in Washington, DC that is available for people to use whenever they want, and we regularly organize team meet-ups, events, and retreats in various locations. We're looking to expand our team with diverse and collaborative doers who believe in our mission and the transformative power of affordable, high-quality education. Location: This is a remote-first role based in the U.S. While we embrace flexible, distributed work, we also value in-person connection. Team members are expected to attend multiple company-wide and team-specific onsites throughout the year. GiveCampus helps schools raise more money. The fundraisers using our platform are managing complex campaigns and donor relationships, engaging thousands of donors, and trying to reverse a decade-long decline in donor participation—often with small teams and limited resources. The quality of what we design directly affects their ability to do that work. We’re hiring a Senior Product Designer to own end-to-end design across multiple B2B or B2B2C products—from early problem framing through shipped, measurable outcomes. You’ll solve hard problems for real users at speed, using every tool at your disposal: Figma, code, AI-powered prototyping, whatever gets you to the best answer fastest. You’ll work closely with Product, Engineering, Marketing, and Partner Success, and report to the Head of Product. Successful Outcomes Impact: Drive measurable business and user value by defining elegant, effective solutions to complex problems within real constraints of time, scope, and ownership. Elevate what we ship. Drive adoption, usage, and retention by applying systems thinking, user empathy, and deep product intuition. Speed: Move fast. Prioritize clarity of scope, smart sequencing, and delivery over perfectionism. Use AI-powered tools to compress the gap between idea and artifact—turning a two-week prototype cycle into an afternoon when the situation calls for it. Design Quality: Help set the bar for UX and UI excellence across the organization. Produce consistently thoughtful, well-crafted work that demonstrates deep understanding of users, anticipates edge cases, and solves real problems—not just for users, but in ways that hold up under engineering, business, and scale constraints. Builder Mindset: If you see a broken flow and can fix it, fix it—put up a PR, don’t file a ticket and wait. Then scale yourself: build the design system component, the reusable pattern, or the prototype that keeps the problem from coming back. The goal isn’t just to do great work once; it’s to make great work easier to do every time after. Insanely Deep Product and User Expertise: Know every nook and cranny of our product. Know our Partners—not as personas on a slide, but as people. Visit campuses. Sit with fundraisers and watch them work. Take them to lunch. Understand their days, their frustrations, their workarounds, and what they wish they could do but can’t. The best design decisions come from a depth of context that you can only get by spending real time in the field with real users. That context is your edge, and we expect you to invest in it continuously. Experience Design Mastery: Eight-plus years across product design, UX/UI, interaction design, and user research. A portfolio that demonstrates both breadth and depth—not just beautiful screens, but evidence of solving hard problems with real constraints and measurable outcomes. Execution and Ownership: You’ve owned end-to-end product design in high-stakes environments—startups or high-growth teams—where design had clear, measurable impact. You prioritize ruthlessly, move quickly, and make smart decisions with limited data—including disagreeing and committing when decisions aren’t perfect but are necessary to move the business forward. Builder Skills: You don’t just design—you make things. This doesn’t require a CS degree. It means you’ve used AI-powered tools (Claude Code, Cursor, v0, Lovable, Figma Make, or similar) to go from idea to working prototype or, better yet, shipped feature or product that solves a real problem. You’re excited about this shift and actively exploring what’s possible. Cross-Functional Fluency: You work well with PMs, engineers, and stakeholders—not just alongside them, but in a way that produces better outcomes than any of you would reach alone. You give feedback that’s direct, specific, and kind. You’re easy to collaborate with and hard to ignore. Cultural Characteristics Better at listening than speaking, especially when navigating disagreement, ambiguity, or high-stakes decisions A builder who goes deep —into technical requirements, user flows, data, and the messy details that separate good design from great products Intensely curious —always pushing to understand why things are the way they are and how they got that way A strong collaborator who creates forward motion without creating friction, drama, or coordination overhead. You operate with urgency but not chaos High standards, low maintenance. You hold yourself and others to excellence. You don’t need to be managed—you need to be pointed in the right direction Comfortable with strong opinions, loosely held. You advocate passionately for your point of view, then commit fully once a decision is made—even if it wasn’t yours Mission-driven. Passionate about advancing the quality, the affordability, and the accessibility of education Radical empathy for end users —the fundraisers doing the hard work and the donors who want to make a difference Ready to apply?
