Product Designer
ABOUT US
Trusted by 900,000 monthly active users, UpCodes (YC S17) is a comprehensive compliance and product research platform that accelerates design to construction in the AEC space. The construction industry suffers from unnecessary costs and complexity; every year billions of dollars are wasted on rework. We’re committed to delivering easy-to-use tools that help designers and builders spend less time finding the right compliance and product resources and more time doing what they love — designing and building. We make a real world tangible impact on the lives of our users and their work of constructing our homes, schools, hospitals, and offices.
ABOUT THE ROLE
Our ideal candidate is a seasoned product designer who’s looking to take on significant strategic responsibilities alongside day-to-day design tasks. Usability and overall design quality are two of the things that help set UpCodes apart from competitors, and you’ll be a key part of maintaining and extending our advantage.
WHAT YOU'LL DO
As a Product Designer, you’ll play a pivotal role in shaping the future of our product and design culture. You’ll partner with product managers and engineers to own end-to-end design across core experiences like our AI Copilot and Products Library.
Own UX/UI design across key features from exploration to launch, focusing on clarity, usability, accessibility, and polish.
Participate in regular user research relying on qualitative and quantitative methods to validate ideas, measure success, and uncover new user pain points.
Work cross-functionally with Product and Engineering. You’ll get a chance to provide feedback and help define requirements during planning, gather feedback and iterate together during design explorations, and provide input and guidance during implementation.
Collaborate with Marketing on high-priority initiatives and provide design input to ensure visual alignment across the website, brand, and product.
Take ownership of projects and product areas and help drive them forward independently, while staying collaborative and aligned with the broader team.
Help continue to evolve our design practice by contributing to our design system, introducing new conceptual frameworks, and improving processes.
THE IDEAL CANDIDATE
Experienced Designer: At least 5 years of experience designing responsive web applications.
B2B SaaS Familiarity: Experience working on B2B SaaS products.
Usability-First Perspective: Has a strong intuition for usability and accessibility — you can show how that comes through in your past work.
Confident Researcher: Confident running user research and interviews, drawing on qualitative and quantitative data, and helping translate those into actionable insights for the rest of the team.
Self-Starter: Self-motivated with good time management. Can work independently and as part of a team within a structured but flexible, fast-paced development process.
Design-Curious: Passion for the craft and a curiosity about emerging perspectives, techniques, and tools.
Action-Oriented: Has a bias towards action and iteration — you ship, learn, and refine quickly.
Design System Contributor: Has worked with design systems (bonus if you’ve helped build or scale one!).
Comfortable with Complexity: Experience designing complex or information-dense tools in specialized fields.
