About the role

Role focused on defining and owning design at Credal, the first design hire responsible for translating strategy into visual language, evolving the design system, and contributing front-end code to prototype and ship polish.

Responsibilities

  • Translate company strategy and user needs into visual language. Concretely, that means product UI and user stories. You turn a go-to-market bet into something people immediately understand.
  • Own and evolve the design system. The rules, components, patterns, and principles that allow our engineering team to iterate quickly without sacrificing legibility.
  • Author front-end code within reason. Enough to build and maintain the design system in code, prototype your own ideas, and ship polish without waiting in an eng queue. You won't carry a backend load (unless you're interested); we have a full team for that.

  • Experience: 3+ years
  • Role: Design, UI / UX
  • Visa: US citizen/visa only
