About the Role
We are looking for a hybrid Designer/Engineer to join our Product Experience team. This is a high-impact role focused on raising the bar for both craft and execution across one of the most innovative TMS platforms on the market. Our software connects shippers, brokers, and carriers—and we’re constantly working to make complex workflows feel simple, fast, and reliable.
You are a designer who ships code, or an engineer with exceptional design instincts. You will be a full-time member of the design team, responsible not just for how things look, but how they are built and delivered. A core part of your role is closing the gap between design and production.
Our team is AI-first and builder-led. Work starts in an LLM, moves quickly into code, and then into Figma for system alignment and polish. We’re looking for someone who thrives in that loop and uses AI to move faster without lowering the bar.
This role reports to the Director of Product Experience. This is a remote position based in the US. The successful candidate will work from home.
What we care about:
Builders: You ship. You’re comfortable in code, prototype in the browser, and use AI tools to accelerate how you work.
Taste: You know what good design looks and feels like and have strong instincts for layout, interaction, and visual detail. You care about getting the small things right.
Outcome ownership: You are accountable for outcomes, not just artifacts. You care whether the work actually improves the product.
Clarity from ambiguity: You can take a vague problem, define a path forward, and drive it through to a shipped solution.
Attention to quality: You hold a high bar for craft and implementation—and know when to move fast.
Curiosity & judgment: You ask good questions, understand tradeoffs, and make thoughtful decisions.
Communication: You work effectively in a remote, async environment and can clearly explain decisions and tradeoffs.
Writing: You understand that writing is design and can craft clear, effective UX copy.
How we work:
Start in Figjam and/or an LLM (e.g. Gemini, Claude) to clarify problems, explore approaches, and identify requirements.
Prototype quickly in code (e.g., Figma Make) to explore flows and interactions.
Validate ideas and refine solutions through feedback from customers and stakeholders.
Use Figma for system alignment and visual polish.
Stay involved through implementation, launch, and measurement of adoption and usage patterns.
What you'll do:
Own work end-to-end: Define problems with PMs and Engineers, explore solutions, validate direction, and ship improvements that move key outcomes.
Prototype in code: Use AI tools and modern dev workflows to build and iterate on real interfaces. Partner with engineers to take the best ideas into production.
Write production code: Contribute to front-end components and features using web technologies (JavaScript/TypeScript, HTML, CSS, Angular). Improve quality, consistency, and speed of delivery.
Bridge design and engineering: Ensure what we design is buildable and what we build meets the design bar. Close gaps quickly.
Design for simplicity: Handle complex workflows by keeping the default experience clear and intuitive.
Raise the bar on quality: Refine interactions, states, and details. Address design and tech debt, including usability and accessibility issues.
Reduce system gaps: Align Figma and production. Contribute reusable components and patterns.
Validate with customers: Talk to users, run quick tests, and use feedback to adjust direction.
Contribute to team culture: Share work early, participate in design reviews, and help improve how we design and build—especially with AI.
Qualifications:
5+ years designing and building web-based SaaS products.
Strong front-end skills (JavaScript/TypeScript, HTML, CSS, Angular) and comfort shipping code.
Experience using AI tools (e.g., ChatGPT, Claude, Cursor) as part of your workflow.
Ability to move fluidly between design and code.
Experience working closely with PMs and Engineers to define and deliver work.
Strong product thinking, interaction design, and attention to detail.
Familiarity with Git and modern dev workflows and deployment pipelines.
Portfolio that demonstrates both design craft and shipped work.
Design here is hands-on and code-driven:
We are an Equal Opportunity Employer and strive to make hiring decisions that reflect our commitment to diversity and inclusion.

Compensation Range: $100,000 - $180,000
