About the company
Our client is a fast-growing software company.
The role
Raydar is recruiting for this role on behalf of our client. Lead the visual and interaction design of enterprise software interfaces while building them in code, acting as the sole design owner on a small product team. The work spans complex workflow screens, reusable component libraries and occasional full-stack internal tooling.
What you'll do
- Craft interfaces that non-engineers in corporate settings can use with confidence.
- Turn early sketches and user input into polished screens that are ready for release, working closely with founders and engineers.
- Create and maintain reusable front-end components and visual standards for the whole product.
- Now and then ship features that span front end and back end, plus internal tooling that makes engineering smoother for everyone.
- Make the creative calls yourself, serving as the team's only designer.
What we're looking for
- 1 to 4 years of experience in a design-and-engineering or front-end role.
- Prior stretches where you carried broad responsibility at a young company, preferably with some enterprise exposure as well.
- A software engineering background rather than design alone.
- Experience building enterprise-grade or data-heavy product interfaces.
- Working fluency in TypeScript, React, HTML and CSS.
- Strong judgment in UI, UX and product design.
Bonus points
- Examples of live work where you covered both the visual design and the implementation.
Compensation and benefits
- Base salary: USD 130,000 to 180,000 per year
- Equity
Location and work model
- San Francisco, CA, United States
- On-site, 5 days per week in office
- Full-time
