What you'll do

  • Design scalable, collaborative, and social online learning experiences used by Fortune 500 companies, universities, and training organizations
  • Own 1-2 major projects at any time, serving as the design lead who shapes solutions from initial problem exploration through final implementation
  • Partner closely with the product management team to frame problems, define project scope, explore multiple design approaches, and make well-reasoned recommendations
  • Provide production-ready mocks and assets, and work closely with engineers to balance quality and feasibility
  • Conduct user research and usability testing to validate design decisions and understand user goals
  • When challenges arise, proactively align stakeholders, propose solutions, and adjust scope as needed
  • Help shape the future of our product by contributing to product strategy and roadmap discussions

What we're looking for

  • 7+ years of experience designing products that have been used by end users and clients at scale
  • Proven track record of solving complex real-world problems with strategic thinking and elegant, user-centered solutions
  • Proficiency with the full design toolkit: wireframing, user flows, high-fidelity mocks, prototyping, user interviews, and usability testing

  • Collaborative leadership: building productive relationships with cross-functional partners of varying experience levels, from PMs to engineers
  • Strategic communication: present complex ideas clearly, anticipate concerns, and lead productive discussions that result in actionable outcomes
  • Adaptive problem-solving: stay focused on core problems while remaining flexible when new information or priorities emerge
  • User-centered intuition: balance data-driven decisions with cognitive empathy, making confident design choices even when complete research isn't available
