Inventables is hiring a Remote Senior Product Designer

ABOUT THE POSITION

We’re looking for a Senior Product Designer to join our small and collaborative product team working to design one of the most innovative platforms on the market. You’ll help create brand new experiences and develop new products within our Easel platform, starting with Easel Cabinetmaker, our web-based software that provides an end-to-end business system for residential cabinet makers. You’ll participate in all phases of product development from discovery – to delivery – to iteration. We’re counting on you to know what great design is, and how to make collaborative software that is based on product led growth principles. 

You’ll have a big impact— the software you design will be used by small businesses to make high-value products like kitchen cabinets, built-ins, bathroom vanities, and more.

Here’s what you’ll do:

  • Build prototypes to quickly explore a solution space and validate ideas with customers early in the process of delivering new functionality

  • Plan and conduct remote user tests of ideas, sketches, prototypes and other design artifacts with customers
  • Conduct user interviews and develop surveys to build a deep understanding of the customer journey
  • Work cross-functionally with other internal teams like software engineering to confidently and clearly present proposed design changes and their motivating rationale 
  • Play a key role in building a strong visual and interaction design language for our Easel platform

Here’s what we’d like you to have:

  • 5+ years of experience as a product designer for web applications

  • Proficiency with tools like Figma, Adobe Creative Suite, Sketch, and Photoshop

  • Experience leading user-centered design practices
  • Experience working in an iterative, agile product development environment
  • Experience collaborating closely with software engineers
  • Professional experience working on a collaborative SaaS product, platform, or a software product in the B2B space

These are nice to haves:

  • Experience planning, conducting, and analyzing user research and user testing
  • Familiarity with user metrics and analytics using tools like Mixpanel, Google Analytics, Hotjar or Tableau
  • Startup experience, or equivalent experience working in a fast-paced environment
  • Experience designing for mobile or responsive applications
  • Experience with interior design, architecture, cabinetry or woodworking, or designing software products that integrate with hardware
