We're hiring a Staff Product Designer to join our Design Team. You'll report to our Head of Product Design, Ario Jafarzadeh. Our team is highly specialized, and the core skillset for this role is a deep-thinker who understands complex systems and workflows. You will work across our squads, rotating fluidly across geospatial, ICAM, and other areas, using a product perspective to create a seamless user experience.

Curious, creative, and collaborative, your focus on user experience shapes an intuitive aesthetic. You play with the latest tooling, form “strong opinions loosely held,” and have discerning personal taste - and you can articulate its value to end users. You have worked on projects involving aspects of creative support, data visualization, or modern collaboration where innovative design was vital to their success. You understand that while AI is changing the world (as will whatever comes next), the fundamentals of design are still just that - fundamental. Style matters, but it complements substance, it cannot replace it. You wince anytime you see bad kerning. You have a low ego, high EQ, and higher ethics. You’re a lifelong learner, driven by the endless pursuit of mastering your craft to support your users.
