NoRedInk is looking for a product designer to help us achieve our mission of unlocking every writer’s potential. In this role, you’ll serve as the dedicated designer for two of our cross-functional feature teams: 1) Product Growth and 2) Learning Experience. Every feature team at NoRedInk owns a significant aspect of our strategy and product, and you’ll work closely with product managers, engineers, curriculum specialists, and other key stakeholders to build innovative software solutions that improve the lives of our users.
More specifically, the product designer is responsible for owning the end-to-end design strategy and solutions for each of their product areas by using design thinking, creative problem solving, and visual design craft to deliver meaningful experiences for our students, teachers, and administrators. All of our product designers are generalists, meaning that they drive research, information architecture, interaction design, visual design, prototyping, and everything in between.
Design at NoRedInk sits within the larger product team, consisting of product managers and product designers. The design team itself is small but mighty, currently consisting of two other product designers. As the third member of this team, you’ll be a partner in up-leveling the role of design at NoRedInk by assuming the highest level of ownership over our design system, direction, and processes.
In this role, you will:
Own end-to-end design for two product areas: Product Growth and Learning Experience.
Drive research, information architecture, interaction design, visual design, prototyping, and usability testing for new features and experiments.
Partner with product managers, engineers, curriculum specialists, and stakeholders from other departments to define, design, and build features that delight users

Experience driving end-to-end design for critical, complex projects that both solve user needs and achieve business outcomes
Strong across information architecture, interaction design, visual design, and prototyping
Experience working on an agile team with product managers and engineers
Exceptional written, verbal, and visual communication skills
