Product Designer
About The Position
Patch exists to rebalance the planet by making environmental commodities easier to understand, trust, and buy at scale. Our platform routes hundreds of millions of dollars into carbon removal, renewable energy, sustainable aviation fuel, and other environmental markets. We're building the operating system for how these markets work. We are an AI-native services firm. Our embedded climate strategists deliver outcomes for enterprise customers. Our platform makes each strategist dramatically more productive and each new market cheaper to scale. Today we deliver through dashboards, decks, and analyst workflows. Tomorrow it will be conversational interfaces, agents, or formats that don't exist yet. The person shaping these surfaces needs to be designing and shipping, not waiting for handoffs. You'll be the dedicated product designer. You'll work directly with engineering, climate strategists, brand design and leadership to design how Patch's platform works for both internal experts and enterprise customers. This role sits at the intersection of complex domain problems (environmental commodity markets, portfolio construction, diligence workflows, transaction infrastructure) and modern product patterns (AI-assisted interfaces, structured data visualization, real-time operational tools). You'll own design end-to-end: problem framing through production code. We primarily hire for senior scope but welcome exceptional candidates at any level.
Requirements
- Product ownership: You define the problem, design the solution, and ship it. You don't wait for a brief.
- Code fluency: You've committed production code and you liked it. You can prototype and build in a codebase, not just in Figma.
- AI-native workflow: You use AI tools daily in your design process. Generative design, AI-assisted prototyping, AI coding tools. This isn't aspirational for you, it's how you already work
- Systems thinking: You can look at a complex domain (markets, transactions, organizations, inventory) and design interfaces that make the structure clear without dumbing it down
- Operational design chops: Experience designing information-dense, workflow-heavy tools (fintech, enterprise, data platforms). This is not a consumer app
- Collaborative accountability: Direct communication, strong opinions loosely held, preference for being a DRI over a contributor
- Comfort with ambiguity: The domain and markets we operate within are evolving rapidly. You find that exciting, not paralyzing
Responsibilities
- Own the design of customer-facing and internal product surfaces across Patch's platform, from environmental commodity research workflows to portfolio dashboards to transaction infrastructure
- Ship code. Prototype in production. You don't need an engineer to validate an idea.
- Embed with our climate strategists and customers to observe real workflows. The question we ask constantly: what did a strategist do manually today that should be a platform capability tomorrow?
- Act as DRI on design initiatives, from scoping through delivery
- Design interfaces where AI does material work: summarizing diligence, constructing portfolios, surfacing market signals. Make the AI's contributions visible, trustworthy, and useful
- Continue to mature Patch's design language and component system.
Benefits
- Time-off-as-needed vacation
- Generous parental leave
- Monthly stipend for mental and physical health
