Senior Product Designer
At LeanDNA we have a unique opportunity to revolutionize the manufacturing supply-chain process for factories with predictive analytics and prescriptive AI. Our customers include many of the world’s leaders across aerospace, industrial, medical device manufacturing and more. NOW is the time to be at LeanDNA. We are small, but growing fast – and raised $15 million in funding this December! Did we mention we’re on Built In Austin’s 2020 Best Small Places to work!
We are looking for Product Designers at all levels.
As a Product Designer, you will play a critical role as we build a product that moves users away from the outdated and manual processes that exist in factories today (spreadsheets, email, BI tools, etc.) and into the the future of intuitive purpose-built, AI-driven software. You’ll report to our Head of Product Design on a growing team, working side-by-side with Product and Engineering to design the future of our tool and create meaningful product experiences.
We value highly collaborative, supportive and inclusive environments. Design plays a major role in LeanDNA’s success. Small Team = Big Impact.
What you’ll do:
Advocate for our users to ensure we’re building the right solutions to their daily challenges, and focus on the top 20% of problems that will solve for 80% of our users
Conduct user research and synthesize findings through interviews and observation (online plus onsite travel) to understand their journey and guide product decisions
Work closely with product management to translate use cases from product requirements into intuitive designs
Brainstorm and ideate on new product concepts
Iterate through wireframes and create workflow driven designs for key personas, to cleverly simplify complex scenarios
Validate and test design flows with users and internal stakeholders
Measure and analyze user behavior (in Pendo)
Polish everything off with great visual design
Participate in a UI refresh, including the development of a new Design Language System
Collaborate with engineering for hand-off and implementation of design requirements – adapt designs to what’s technically feasible, knowing when to push back
Think strategically and design for the future, ensure designs are aligned with the product vision and business goals
An ideal candidate will provide a design portfolio or samples that represent thoughtful problem solving for complex workflows. Not required, but a plus: past work with data visualization and enterprise application design (at-scale.)
Tools we use:
Whiteboards for brainstorming
Pen + Paper (or digital) for wireframing
Figma for Hi-Fi, prototypes, and handoff
Pendo for user analytics & guides
Knowledge of HTML/CSS (to work with engineering)
Google Suite, JIRA and Slack
Qualities we embrace:
Humility with strong opinions, loosely held
Empathy and compassion for coworkers and our users
Curiosity and an eagerness to learn
Willingness to jump in and collaborate
Clear communication to effectively present ideas internally and to customers
