About The Position

We’re hiring a Staff Product Designer to join the Fieldguide team. You’ll own complex, ambiguous problem spaces end-to-end, partner deeply with Product and Engineering, and help shape the design direction of a core Fieldguide product. We move incredibly fast at Fieldguide, and we’re looking for designers who can operate at that cadence. This team ships frequently, iterates in tight loops, and makes progress amid ambiguity. You should be comfortable balancing speed with craft, incorporating AI into your daily design practice, and designing AI-assisted workflows directly into the product. This is a high-impact role for someone excited to own unclear problems, drive momentum, and help modernize audit workflows that customers depend on every day. You’ll join a growing, highly collaborative product design team embedded within Fieldguide’s Audit product group. Designers at Fieldguide operate as strong product partners—working closely with Product Management and Engineering to define problems and deliver high-quality solutions. The Core team focuses on the core workflows that auditors and assurance professionals use every day, including planning, execution, review, and collaboration across engagements. The problems are complex, data-rich, and high-impact.

Requirements

You operate as a strategic IC — you don't just solve problems, you decide which problems matter
You think several steps ahead, anticipating how decisions in one area ripple across others
You're comfortable influencing senior PM and Engineering leaders, not just your immediate collaborators
Experience shaping how AI-assisted workflows get designed at a systemic level, not just within a single flow
You've coached or mentored other designers and can articulate why, not just what
You set a bar for craft and consistency that others look to as the standard
You can hold a long-term point of view while still shipping incrementally

Nice To Haves

Experience designing for audit, accounting, compliance, or other regulated domains
Track record of shaping design strategy across multiple teams, not just a single product area
Experience building or scaling design systems, standards, or team-wide processes
Background in workflow-heavy, document-centric, or B2B SaaS products
Experience coaching or managing designers, formally or informally
Familiarity with accessibility standards and inclusive design practices at scale

Responsibilities

Lead end-to-end design for complex, ambiguous audit workflows, from problem definition through shipped solutions
Partner closely with Product and Engineering to shape strategy, influence roadmaps, and deliver high-quality, scalable implementations
Drive design execution with minimal direction, operating effectively in a fast-paced, ambiguous environment
Translate customer needs, research insights, and business goals into clear user journeys, interaction models, and polished UI
Balance speed and iteration with usability, consistency, and long-term product quality
Advocate for users while accounting for technical, regulatory, and business constraints
Own a significant product area or customer journey, anticipating downstream impacts across workflows and personas
Set a high bar for craft and influence by contributing to the design system, mentoring peers, and serving as a trusted design voice.
