The role
You'll be a foundational hire, designing & building across the entire surface area of the product, right alongside the founders. There’s no bureaucracy, onboarding ramp, or micro-managing. You’ll own features and surfaces end-to-end, with tasteful UI/UX decisions that are pixel-perfect.
Every PR & design-choice will directly impact thousands of users’ daily lives, so the bar is very high! The average white-collar worker spends more time in their inbox than talking to their family.
What you'll own
Entire product flows, experiences and the overall brand, including the onboarding, mobile app, chat interface, landing pages, core inbox experience, calendar, and more. You can fundamentally redefine the next era of HCI.
What we're looking for
- Taste. You can show us five products you love and explain exactly why. Ours include Arc, Raycast, Conductor, and Things.
- Design-to-code. You design in Figma or Paper, prototype in code, and ship in Next.js/React, SwiftUI is a plus. You care about polish, motion, accessibility, and performance.
- Shipped high-quality products: You’re previously shipped products / websites / apps that someone else would be truly delighted to use.
- Agency: You enjoy not being hand-held, micromanaged
You will like this role if
- Dislike being hand-held, micromanaged, or bossed around.
- You’re excited to work on a product thousands use for several hours everyday
- You obsess over building pixel-perfect frontends
- You enjoy speed, chaos and impact of a high-growth startup
- You want to redefine human<>human and human<>ai communication
