About the role

We are seeking a creative, customer-centric, data-loving Senior Product Designer who’s ready to drive growth in an exciting tech startup who’s disrupting the media, sports, and entertainment industries.

The ideal candidate is a self-starter who is comfortable working alongside a cross functional team of designers, engineers, product managers and marketers to discover, define, and ship solutions to our customers that solve problems. You’re comfortable working in an ambiguous and fast-paced startup environment. You’re comfortable implementing new design processes and have an understanding of Lean Product and Design practices. You understand how UX design fits into an increasingly empowered product team. You’re happiest when working directly with customers and stakeholders – listening, interpreting feedback, presenting counter points, and iterating in order to find the best solution.

Ultimately, you want to work with talented people and brands across a diverse set of industries to create meaningful experiences that help our customers tell their story.

Your day to day journey at Tagboard will provide adventure, excitement, and some of the below

  • Communicate your thoughts effectively to stakeholders including designers, product managers and engineers
  • Learn from customer usage and leverage feedback and data to continually iterate, innovate, and evolve the product
  • Work with other designers in taking product specs/requirements from concept to execution, transforming them into intuitive, user-friendly application features
  • Work with a cross-functional team throughout the entire product development cycle: from concept development to execution to launch, advocating for our users and our brand along the way
  • Take an active and involved role in the definition of our product strategy for both new and existing functionality
  • Partner with engineers to ensure a high-level of polish throughout the development cycle
  • Partner with our brand and creative team to refine and evolve our design system to enable efficient, consistent, and scalable product development
  • Design and build custom visualizations for customers using Tagboards in-product design tools, as well as a combination of HTML, CSS and CSS animations
  • Engage in product brainstorming meetings to gather and distill users’ feedback, in order to come up with solutions and wireframes for new products and features

To succeed, you will need most of these qualifications

  • Visual design skills with proficiency in typography, desktop/mobile UI, color, layout, iconography and aesthetic sense
  • Strong HTML and CSS skills; you know most of the gotchas and tricks
  • Strategic product thinker with the experience understanding product goals, identifying opportunities, and making decisions based on the impact to people and the company
  • Proud about what you do, and have a high interest in keeping up with current best practices in your areas of expertise
  • Strong problem-solver, you must be able to put forward multiple design options and iterate to find the most elegant solution
  • A fierce advocate of the best possible end-user experience
  • Interest in or experience with product-led growth
  • You are comfortable working in an agile environment and can challenge yourself and your team to improve their ways of working
