About the role

Product/UX Designer role at Haystack News focused on shaping the user experience across all device surfaces. Hands-on IC role collaborating with founders, engineering and QA to take work from concept through implementation in short, experimental cycles.

Responsibilities

  • Cross-platform product design: Own end-to-end design for a variety of new features across product surfaces (onboarding, personalization, discovery, playback, subscription flows) across iOS, Android, web, connected TV and automotive systems. Ensure cohesion and accessibility across touchpoints, and work closely with engineering during implementation to maintain fidelity and polish.
  • User-centered problem solving: Translate product goals into clear flows, wireframes and high-quality UI. Use research insights, user feedback and data to refine and iterate on your work.
  • Engagement & retention design: Create experiences that help viewers get more value from Haystack by improving discovery, enjoyment and long-term retention.
  • Collaboration & communication: Work with founders, engineering and QA to scope projects, validate assumptions, support implementation and ensure designs are built as intended. Communicate design decisions clearly and collaboratively.
  • Design system contributions: Contribute to our cross-platform design system — including components, patterns, interactions and visual standards — to improve consistency and scalability as the product evolves.
  • Execution & iteration: Prototype solutions, test concepts quickly, gather insights and ship incremental improvements. Help design and evaluate product experiments; you’ll help shape hypotheses, create testable UI variations, review results, and use insights to refine the experience.

Qualifications

  • Experience: 4+ years designing consumer digital products with a strong portfolio showing mobile, web and/or CTV work. Experience in media or streaming is a plus.
  • Hands-on execution: You excel at taking work from concept to implementation while collaborating closely with cross functional partners.
  • Systems & product thinking: Ability to connect product goals to simple, thoughtful user experiences.
  • Data informed: You rely on user insights and metrics to guide and improve your work.
  • Attention to detail: Meticulous execution and a commitment to polished, high quality deliverables across platforms.
  • Communication: Clear storytelling and rationale, with comfort presenting to founders and engineers.
  • Tools: Fluency in Figma and prototyping tools; openness to AI-assisted design workflows.
