Senior Product Designer

Elsa 🇺🇸 Coos County, Oregon, United States of America

Hybrid Full-time Mid-level

The Senior Product Designer will own the end-to-end UX/UI design for the ELSA mobile app, focusing on shipping high-quality, measurable improvements quickly. This involves turning ambiguous problems into complete, shippable solutions by partnering daily with Product Management and Engineering teams.

Responsibilities

  • Own design for key product areas (onboarding, home, lesson flows, AI coaching surfaces, paywall/subscription, retention loops)
  • Turn fuzzy problems into shippable solutions: user journeys, wireframes, prototypes, final UI, specs
  • Partner daily with PM + Engineering (India-based) to define scope, constraints, and tradeoffs
  • Run lightweight discovery and validation (Maze tests, usability tests, surveys, funnel review) and iterate based on evidence
  • Maintain and extend the design system (components, patterns, accessibility, states)
  • Ensure clean handoff: redlines/specs, edge cases, QA, post-launch check-ins
  • Communicate clearly in async: Looms, concise docs, decisions + rationale

Requirements

  • 3–7 years product design experience (consumer mobile strongly preferred)
  • Strong interaction design + visual polish (production-ready UI)
  • Solid product thinking: metrics, tradeoffs, experimentation mindset
  • Comfortable with ambiguity and speed
  • Strong Figma skills (components, auto-layout, variants, prototyping)
  • Excellent written communication and async collaboration habits
  • Experience working cross-timezone and with engineers

Benefits

  • Flexible work setup: Remote and hybrid work arrangements available
  • Comprehensive employee well-being benefits
  • Free ELSA Premium courses to polish your language skills
  • Collaborative, international team culture
  • Opportunity to contribute to a fast-growing, well-funded Silicon Valley startup with global impact
