About The Position

As an Associate Product Designer at Solace, you’ll help design the healthcare experience of the future alongside experienced product designers, product managers, engineers, and clinicians. This is a hands-on role for early-career designers who want to learn fast, build real products, and see their work shipped to users. You’ll help distill complex healthcare workflows into clear, usable, and thoughtful experiences. You won’t be expected to have everything figured out—but you will be expected to bring curiosity, care, and a strong bias toward action. This role is for the hungry, the ambitious, and the deeply curious. You’re energized by feedback, excited by complexity, and motivated by the idea that good design can make people’s lives meaningfully better. This is an in person role for 2026 college graduates in our Redwood City office, 3 days a week.

Requirements

• Comfort with ambiguity and a willingness to learn by doing
• Strong curiosity for design, systems, and how people experience products
• An intuitive sense for what makes consumer experiences feel clear, human, and delightful
• A bias toward action—you’d rather make something and improve it than wait for perfect clarity
• Care for craft and details, even when working fast
• Solid communication skills and openness to feedback
• Familiarity with modern design tools (especially Figma)
• An online portfolio showcasing your thinking, process, and design work
• Applicants must be based in the United States.

• Collaborate closely with product managers, engineers, and clinicians to design thoughtful solutions
• Participate in user research, usability testing, and design reviews
• Incorporate feedback quickly and iterate toward better outcomes
• Help uphold and contribute to Solace’s design system and standards
