About the Role:

We're looking for a thoughtful and versatile Lead Product Designer to join our fast-growing team.

  • Talk to users, run lightweight research, and use the resulting insights to drive product design decisions and iterate quickly based on feedback
  • Create and evangelize the brand's information architecture and design language for the entire patient (and provider) journey
  • Stay adjacent to industry trends but also maintain space to innovate for the specific needs of our patients

Who you are:

  • 4+ years experience in Product / UX Design, designing for mobile and/or responsive web apps
  • Figma is second nature; motion/illustration skills a plus
  • Demonstrated history of delivering world-class product design and seeing ideas to fruition
  • Value clean UX, but you’re primarily driven by real impact and behavioral change
  • Excited by being the voice for the patient
  • Leadership traits and an ability to push ideas to fruition
  • A clear communicator who thrives in cross-functional teams
  • Curious, fast-moving, and comfortable with ambiguity
  • Customer obsession, high empathy

Bonuses for:

  • Interest/experience in psychology, health tech, or digital care
  • Demonstrated passion for the power of branding and the value of performance marketing
  • Experience of designing a brand identity from the ground up
  • Experience in and excitement for early stage (series A) startup

All roles are based in office 5 days per week. Office is located in Flatiron, NYC .

What you'll get from us (on top of the usual startup perks!):

  • Design that matters – Your work won’t just make pixels pretty, it’ll change how millions of people access life-saving care

  • Real ownership – Step in as our first design leader and shape the product, brand, and patient journey from day one

  • Startup energy + solid backing – Move fast, experiment boldly, and know you’re supported by top healthcare and tech investors

  • A seat at the table – Work directly with the CEO and leadership team. Your ideas won’t just be heard, they’ll drive the company forward

  • Room to grow big – This is your chance to build the design function at scale, grow your leadership chops, and put your stamp on one of the fasted growing health tech startups in the country
