About The Position

We're looking for a senior Product Design Consultant to join the team on a contract basis, focusing on an exciting set of strategic projects that support parents and families. You'll take work from concept through polished, build-ready design. Software is the priority, though experience designing for connected/physical products is a strong plus–this work lives at the intersection of hardware and app. You'll partner closely with Product, Engineering, Clinical, and Marketing to bring something genuinely new to market on a tight timeline.

Comfortable working within an established design system rather than building one from scratch
Highly proficient in Figma
Self-directed and quick to ramp, able to pick up projects with minimal oversight and deliver on schedule
Strong communicator who collaborates well with Product and Engineering partners
Comfortable using AI tools to move faster and explore ideas
Genuine interest in improving the lives of parents and babies through thoughtful design
