Senior Product Designer job at Newness

NEWNESS is the live-streaming platform built specifically for the beauty community. It’s a place where creators join in with a highly engaged community to talk about what they love--all in real time.

We’re a fun, thoughtful, and passionate and diverse team. Some of our employees are tech veterans coming from Twitch, Facebook, Google and Glossier, lending our team a unique blend of live-streaming, tech, gaming, and beauty expertise. We are a remote-by-design early-stage startup and well funded by some of the top VCs and angel investors, including Sequoia Capital, Cowboy Ventures and Upside Partnership.

In this role you will have the opportunity to help shape the vision of the NEWNESS platform and community. This role will be key to NEWNESS's strategic goals where user experience, unique beauty specific features, and authentic on-platform community building tools will become our differentiator.

You're a Product Designer generalist with 4+ years of experience designing engaging user experiences for consumer products and apps. Successful designers are strong in interaction, though they can flex into visual design, and are interested in having a big say in how UX is done. You value collaborative, iterative work with a small friendly team. It’s rewarding for you to help users form friendships and build community in a space that you’ve designed.
