About the role
As a founding Product Designer on our growing Sofia EPD (Engineering Product Design) team, you won't just execute on a backlog — you'll help shape how Gem looks, feels, and works for thousands of recruiters and talent leaders across the US. You'll own design for mission-critical product areas, including Gem Scheduling, our Enterprise Platform (admin settings, permissions, RBAC), Talent Compass, and Talent Marketing, partnering closely with engineering and product managers in Sofia and US-based designers and stakeholders in San Francisco. This is a rare opportunity to work on a product that customers genuinely love — and to do it from the ground up in a Sofia team.
What are we looking for
- A full-spectrum product designer: from user research and problem framing, through flows and interaction design, to polished visual execution and detailed specs
- Someone with a strong product and design point of view — able to deeply understand user problems, form their own POV on the right solution, and articulate and defend it
- Ability to translate complex user needs and rich datasets into clear, actionable, and visually compelling UI — particularly in enterprise contexts where users are trying to surface insights and drive decisions
- Experience designing end-to-end flows in web applications, not just screens in isolation
- A collaborative partner to engineering: comfortable working iteratively, participating in sprint cycles, and evolving designs based on real implementation feedback — not throwing work over the fence
- Strong communication skills — able to present and discuss design decisions clearly with cross-functional partners across time zones
