Teachable is looking for a Product Designer to join our growing Student Experience Pod. We're a tight-knit team of smart people who like to get a lot done with minimal overhead. We collaborate on roadmap, design, and architecture, and are on a mission to revolutionize education. On the Student Experience Pod, our mission is to deliver solutions that give our creators the flexibility, reliability, control, and insights for fulfilling engaging student experiences in a scalable way. We do that by collaborating closely among product, design, marketing, and engineering to build iteratively and launch high-impact A/B experiments to learn quickly.
As a Product Designer at Teachable, you'll work directly on a system that impacts thousands of instructors and millions of students. You’ll help us understand our users, identify problems, ideate, and build out feature improvements and experiments. Our development teams are structured into cross-functional Product Engineering pods each consisting of 3-5 engineers and 3 pod leads: An Engineering Lead, a Product Manager, and a Product Designer. The pod leads are collectively responsible for executing on the pod’s mission.
Who you are:
You have 3+ years of experience working in-house in product design, executing on a variety of projects in a team environment.
You love design -- the process, conversation, big ideas, mediums, tools, and possibilities -- and are guided by an insatiable curiosity and the desire to create great experiences.
You can think and work in systems, identifying ideas and threads that tie experiences together, and know when to apply pixel-perfect attention to detail, and when to make low-fi sketches and prototypes.
You understand the people at the center of our brand and prioritize their experience over all else, and know how to sell design and advocate for great design practices on a company level to a variety of stakeholders.
You are a collaborative team player who’s also capable of working independently. You have led others to solve complex problems with broad impact on the business, and are able to mentor more junior designers.
You are active in the design community and network with others in and outside of the company.
You’ve used your background and skills to shape the design process and move a design organization forward in some way.
You have been responsible for programs and initiatives that contributed to building design culture in the org: design critiques, teaching design, building design process etc.
You have helped others on their team maintain design system consistency/principles and adhere to design values & design best practices.

It's a plus if...you're systems focused...not just on design systems but technical architecture systems
