Job description
JOB DESCRIPTION:
UtilityProfit is a venture-backed (series A) startup, headquartered in Austin, started by the Favor founders. At UtilityProfit, we're dramatically improving the utility setup process for renters moving into their new rental homes. In the future, we believe renters won’t need to deal with utilities at all.
Background:
Here's our product: We're building a mobile-first website with many backend tools for our internal teams. We have an addess search engine to find available utilities, and a platform for property managers to get visibility into utility setups before they hand off keys for renters to move in.
Here's our tech stack. Our platform was built primarily on Node.js & React. We use Figma for design mockups and prototyping. Also, our marketing team uses Webflow for web design, which you'll assist with.
Here's our team:
About The Role
You’ll build on the existing infrastructure while developing other new features from the ground up.
Solve business and operations problems with products by talking with other teams in the company so you can develop new product ideas that you can design and iterate on.
Iterate your design solutions before they are given to engineering to ensure the best user experience.
Our ideal candidate:
Reliable Designer: Your eye for design is strong. You have a high standard for UX and readability, specifically on mobile screens. You move from sketching to final comps at a fast pace.
Natural learner and problem-solver: You can hold many different product concepts and logic in your head to quickly address the internal team’s questions & issues about our complex product. You're resourceful and not afraid to ask questions.
Strong communicator: You're thorough with how you explain issues and product solutions so that anyone in the company can understand (written and verbal). You listen and take notes so you can ask good questions that lead you to find the core problem. You follow up with stakeholders to get feedback on designs, and they like you.
Product Minded: You know if a product is robust or misses the mark. You get excited about design and development. You use the product yourself daily to get in the shoes of different customers.
Technical: Product design at a tech company requires a hybrid of product and technical expertise. You use the following programs/tools: Google sheets, inspect/debug browser dev tools, Fullstory, Front, and Slack.
Humble: You don’t take design feedback personally. You understand the first design you make will most likely not be the best solution, so you’re excited to show it to people to get feedback sooner rather than later.
