Product Designer

tldr; looking for a collaborative, action-oriented, and product-driven product designer to join Quotient as we set out to democratize access to the best engineering cultures.💥 About Quotient:Quotient is a DevTool that discovers, prioritizes, and resolves the friction slowing down engineering teams. Today, over 30% of a team's work week is spent on avoidable friction in their development processes - this translates to $85 billion in lost Global GDP. Quotient pinpoints a team's top bottlenecks in productivity using the richest dataset on how teams work, and then uses AI to resolve the bottlenecks directly. Our vision is to democratize access to the best engineering cultures by building the OS that powers how engineering teams work.We're backed by world-class investors (including Resolute, Flybridge, and Dria Ventures), and have an extended runway to build a generational-defining product.🫂 About our culture:Our goal is to build a founding team that focuses on the following tenets -Diversity and Inclusion: We want our teams to practice diversity - not only in background, but also in perspective. This means intentionally hiring people with unique and valuable perspectives that give us the best chance at designing a truly innovative product.Frequent Collaboration: We believe in working together to build innovative solutions. Our teams have strong connective tissue.Feedback Driven (but rooted in insights): We'll be wrong many times as we grow Quotient. Accepting and analyzing feedback allows us to quickly adjust to build a great company for our employees, and a great product for our customers.Bias for Action: We'll have a bias for testing over researching. In most cases, we'll learn much more by taking action on our hypothesis.🔍 What we're looking for in a Product Designer:Designing from the ground up: You will establish the foundation for design at our company, owning the design process from end to end. Your work will set the tone for future designers, and you'll lead by example in a fast-paced, iterative environment.Multidisciplinary approach: You'll be involved in many aspects of the product, from UX research and wire-framing to visual design and user testing. We are looking for someone excited and capable of working in many areas and has a depth of expertise in a few.Embraces ambiguity: You will be working closely with the founders to solve big problems. You will need to be energized by unknowns and solve open-ended problems without clear boundaries or requirements.Product-driven mindset and strong user empathy: You will be excited to dive into the needs of the user and anticipate ways we can enhance our features and influence the product roadmap.Located near NYC or SF: We think in-person work creates a certain type of magic for early-stage startups, something hard to replicate in a fully remote environment. However, we respect the need for flexibility and space to focus. We aim to have people working together in the same physical location for about one week per month.👋 About the FoundersCEO, Lizzie Matusov:I am an engineer-turned-entrepreneur who loves thinking about how humans work together to build powerful software. I previously built client applications and deployment pipelines at Red Hat, and wrote software to improve access to medical-grade genetic testing at Invitae. I have an MBA and MS in Engineering Sciences from Harvard.CTO, Joe Mukai:I have over 15 years of professional experience in building software with over a decade of work in engineering leadership. I was previously a co-founderCTO of Proletariat, a Boston-based games studio, for almost 10 years until the company was acquired by Blizzard Entertainment in 2022.
