Senior Product Designer - Growth

Render

10d • $195,000 - $268,000

About The Position

Render is hiring a craft-focused individual contributor to design the connected journey from a developer’s first interaction with Render through onboarding, activation, billing, and becoming a paying customer. The role spans multiple product areas, including product, billing, payments, and pricing, and focuses on making these experiences coherent, clear, and trustworthy.

The designer will work across a wide surface area, shipping and improving designs quickly, validating work with users, and using experiments and data to learn what improves activation, conversion, and retention. This includes designing complex, high-stakes billing and payment experiences where correctness, clarity, and edge-case handling are essential. The role is part of a collaborative design team with weekly critiques and close partnership across product, engineering, data, marketing, and finance.

Requirements

• At least 5 years of relevant experience, including experience designing for developers or other technical users.
• Exceptional design taste and craft, with the ability to maintain a high bar while shipping quickly.
• Experience with both user validation methods, such as testing and interviews, and experimentation, including designing and interpreting experiments.
• Ability to design complex, high-stakes flows and account for edge cases such as failed charges, mid-cycle plan changes, and confusing invoices.
• Strong information architecture skills, including the ability to clarify complex plans, usage, and states.
• Ability to design a coherent user journey from first touch through activation to payment, demonstrated in a portfolio.
• Understanding of how developers think and work, including services and deploys, and the ability to design for technical users’ mental models.
• Strong product judgment, problem framing, and prioritization under fast launch velocity.
• Clear, direct communication and collaborative work with product, engineering, data, and finance partners, including sharing a problem space with another designer.

Nice To Haves

• Experience designing billing, payments, subscriptions, checkout, or pricing surfaces where correctness and clarity are high-stakes.
• Measurable growth outcomes in activation, conversion, or retention.
• Comfort using experimentation tools and reading data independently.
• Design-engineering literacy, including comfort with code, motion, or prototyping, and curiosity about AI-assisted design.
• Understanding of usage-based or resource-metered billing for developer tools, including compute plans, CPU and memory instance types, usage metering, and how pricing maps to infrastructure.
• Writing, talks, or side projects that demonstrate design craft and point of view.

Responsibilities

• Design a coherent customer journey from first touch through onboarding, activation, upgrades, and billing.
• Own the design craft for billing, payments, and pricing surfaces, including plans, usage, invoices, upgrade and downgrade flows, payment methods, dunning, and the pricing page.
• Design first-run and activation experiences that help developers reach a successful deploy and build a habit of using Render.
• Validate designs through user testing, interviews, and quick research, and run experiments to learn what affects activation, conversion, and retention.
• Prioritize across a broad range of work and ship improvements in small, confident increments.
• Collaborate with product, engineering, data, marketing, and finance stakeholders, communicating clearly and representing user needs in business discussions.
• Contribute concepts and perspectives to the design-led discovery track and participate in weekly critiques.

Benefits

• 4 weeks of paid vacation.
• 14 weeks of fully paid parental leave for all parents, with a supportive return plan.
• Long-term disability and life insurance.
• 401K plans.
• 100% employer-paid medical coverage and 99% employer-paid dental and vision coverage for the employee and a dependent.
• Flexible spending accounts (FSAs) and health savings accounts (HSAs).
• Monthly lifestyle stipend for wellness, mental health and therapy, hobbies, and other activities.
• Monthly cell phone and internet subsidy.
• Commuter benefits for Bay Area employees.
• Home office stipends for remote employees.
• Continuous learning benefits and related support.
