PTO balances: Keep track of employee time off with automatic updates that sync vacation and sick days with payroll and calendars. Project tracking: Manage projects with tools for tracking time spent on tasks, analyzing progress, and adjusting workloads. Here’s what you’ll do day-to-day Translate customer insights into intuitive, scalable workflows that simplify scheduling, attendance, and compliance. Design and refine multi-surface experiences (web, mobile, kiosk) that meet the needs of both managers and employees. Partner with PM, Engineering, and Data to define problem spaces, set priorities, and deliver customer value. Champion our design system and evolve it through contributions that improve platform cohesion. Balance long-term vision with near-term execution, navigating ambiguity and adjusting scope as customer needs evolve. Provide mindful critique and mentorship to peers, helping elevate craft quality across the team. Here’s what we're looking for: Experience: 8+ years in product design. Product acumen: Proven ability to collaborate with PM and Engineering partners to shape priorities and translate them into clear roadmaps. Craft excellence: Portfolio demonstrating accessible, performant, and mindful end-to-end product design across web and mobile. Customer empathy: Skill at uncovering and synthesizing customer needs—particularly for small businesses and hourly workers—into actionable design insights. Collaboration and influence: Robust communication skills, with the ability to align cross-functional partners and drive clarity in complex problem spaces. Ideally you have: Experience designing complex systems or compliance-heavy workflows, ideally in SaaS, HR, or productivity tools. Knowledge designing AI-driven experiences, including AI agents, conversational UI, or LLM-powered workflows. Experience scaling products in fast-growing environments, balancing early-stage adoption with long-term system design. An affinity for helping small businesses and their employees thrive.
