Senior Product Designer

Who we are Good digital products come from small teams that stay close to the work and move quickly. That's how Parallel operates, and Senior Product Designers are central to it. You'll lead the design on a project day to day and stay hands-on in the files, turning real problems into products that ship and hold up. Product design is our focus, so knowing what it actually takes to get a product out the door is where we start. From there, you're someone whose work sets an example, and you carry that well. You'll spend your days designing, and you'll also shape where a project goes, through clear direction, sound judgment, and feedback people can use. The best idea can come from anyone on the team, and you make room for that. What you'll do Lead the design on a project, from first prototypes to final hand-off to engineering. Prototype quickly in design sprints, getting ideas into a form the team can respond to. Take complex, half-formed problems and make them simple to use. Run the hands-on parts of a sprint: workshops, stakeholder interviews, research, user testing, and documentation. Present your work and the thinking behind it, to the team and to clients. Read the product data and let it sharpen your design. Set the craft standards others work to: guidelines, patterns, and the details that carry a product. Mentor other designers with specific, honest feedback that moves them forward. Work closely with engineers and product so the design ships fully and faithfully. Question th
