Job Description

Staff Product Designer, Data Tools

We’re looking for a Staff UX Designer to lead design on a new data product. This role blends product design, data visualization, and systems thinking. You’ll work closely with PMs, engineers, and data scientists to ship production-grade dashboards and analytics tools that help professionals make better decisions, faster.

If you’re energized by complex systems, early-stage builds, and clear data storytelling, this could be a great fit.

WHAT YOU'LL DO

Data Design & Visualization

  • Design interactive dashboards, charts, and exploration tools that surface real business insights
  • Build flexible design patterns that work in embedded BI tools and custom front-ends
  • Translate data into clean, thoughtful visuals that drive decision-making

Product Design & Research

  • Own the full design process from discovery to handoff
  • Run user research and testing across multiple personas (from admins to execs)
  • Create user journeys, flows, wireframes, and prototypes across fidelity levels

Collaboration & Systems

  • Work cross-functionally with PMs, data scientists, eng, CX, and sales to shape analytics experiences
  • Extend the design system to support both BI and front-end implementations
  • Present work internally and externally, guide dev implementation where needed
  • Prototype and test using Figma and (optionally) front-end code

WHAT YOU BRING

  • 6+ years of product design experience, with a strong track record in data-heavy tools or dashboards
  • Experience designing inside BI tools (e.g., Thoughtspot, PowerBI, Omni) or similar platforms
  • Strong data design instincts (clarity, truthfulness, avoiding misleading visuals)
  • Skilled at designing within short-term constraints while keeping long-term vision in mind
  • Ability to ship real, usable design systems and components
  • Comfortable prototyping with Figma and using AI tools (e.g., ChatGPT, Copilot) to speed up workflows
  • Bonus: React/D3 familiarity, front-end chops, experience designing for knowledge workers or AI workflows

LOGISTICS

  • This role is hybrid in San Francisco. Expect to be in-office 4+ days a week.
  • We’re not offering visa sponsorship at this time.

WHY JOIN

  • Well-funded, fast-growing company backed by top investors
  • Huge, clear problem space with direct user impact
  • Collaborative, low-ego team of builders
  • Equity, 401K, and strong benefits
  • semiannual offsites
