About The Position

As Pogo’s second Product Designer, you will help lead product design and creative direction for a consumer insights product that connects brands and retailers with millions of purchase-verified consumers. The role spans an emerging B2B platform and a consumer app with 3 million users and growing. The B2B platform is intended to serve some of the largest companies in the world. You will design product experiences end to end, from exploration through launch and iteration, and create polished interfaces that build trust and demonstrate the capabilities of Pogo’s data and AI technology. You will contribute to the product roadmap and establish foundations for the design language, systems, and culture. The role involves working cross-functionally with engineering and go-to-market teams in a fast-paced, often ambiguous startup environment, where priorities can shift and designs may need to be shipped quickly. You will use qualitative interviews and direct customer feedback to shape product decisions and enterprise-focused solutions. As an early team member and one of two designers, you will help define the company’s design culture, processes, and traditions. Pogo emphasizes rapid experimentation, weekly iteration and shipping, and flexible work schedules. The company expects more than a conventional 9-to-5 commitment, while encouraging time off to recharge.
