About the Role
We're seeking a Product Designer to join our design team. You'll own design work across multiple product areas and help us think strategically about where we're headed.
Here's the deal: we're scaling fast across all 50 states, and each one has its own legal requirements, court systems, and client specs. Your job is to take these complex and nuanced operational challenges and turn them into workflows that actually make sense - so our ops team can do their jobs with confidence.
You'll work with engineering squads, PMs, and ops folks to figure out what's actually broken, advocate for the people using our tools, and ship things that make their work faster and more accurate.
What You'll Do
Own design work across multiple squads - You'll balance hands-on work with thinking about how everything fits together
Talk to the people using our tools - Figure out what's frustrating them, where we could automate, and validate ideas before we build them
Product Designer (Canada)
Design interfaces that reduce cognitive load - Our ops team deals with
complicated workflows; your job is to make them feel simple
Spot opportunities for AI and automation - Find places where we can save people from repetitive work and reduce errors
Turn legal/technical requirements into tools people can actually use -
Translate the complex stuff into something organized and intuitive
Work with our design system (Atlas for web, Compass for mobile) - Use what we have, extend it when needed, keep things consistent
Coach and grow the team - Mentor other designers by sharing feedback,
frameworks, and perspective to help them grow
Partner with engineers - Push for good UX while being realistic about what we can ship quickly
Make prototypes that show how things work - Especially for complex
interactions and different states
Actually measure if your designs work - Look at things like task completion time, error rates, and whether people are happier
What You'll Design
Document management systems with smart templates and quality controls Workflow tools that guide people through complex multi-step processes
Interfaces that surface the right information at the right time based on context AI-enhanced tools that reduce manual work and improve accuracy
Issue tracking and quality control systems
Checklists and decision-support tools for compliance-heavy workflows
What We're Looking For
5-7 years designing tools or enterprise software (the kind with real
complexity, not just marketing sites)
You're good at organizing chaos - You can look at a mess of requirements and figure out a system that makes sense
You've shipped things that made work easier - And you can show how you know it worked (faster tasks, fewer errors, happier users)
You know how to learn from users - You talk to people, validate assumptions, and don't just guess what they need
You can break complex stuff into simple steps - This is a core skill for this role
You're pragmatic - You'd rather ship something good than wait for perfect
You've worked with design systems - You know how to use components and when to extend them
You work well with engineers and PMs - You can have productive
conversations about tradeoffs
You can explain your thinking - Both the "what" and the "why" behind your decisions
You use AI tools as part of your design process - Whether for research,
prototyping, or generating options faster. We're a team that leans into AI and we want someone who does too.
You've designed data-dense interfaces where getting it wrong actually
matters -Compliance workflows, regulated industries, back-office tools, or anything where users need to trust the information in front of them.
You're solid with Figma and FigJam - These are our main tools
You'll Thrive Here If:
You're passionate about creating order from ambiguity
You believe function drives form, not the other way around
You believe in understanding user workflows deeply before proposing
solutions
You think systematically about how all pieces fit together
You're comfortable with iteration and measuring impact through metrics
You're interested in the potential of AI to transform operations
You're motivated by creating tools that make people's work lives easier and more efficient
You can balance strategic thinking with hands-on execution
You bring a sense of humor to work - we tackle serious problems but don't take ourselves too seriously
Portfolio Requirement
We make hiring decisions based on your portfolio first. The resume supplements it - it doesn't replace it.
We're looking for evidence that you can design for complexity and earn user trust. Clean and considered > flashy and shallow.
During interviews, you'll walk through 2-3 projects that demonstrate:
Systems thinking and organizing complex requirements
Working with engineering and product constraints
User research and validation process
Compensation & Benefits
Salary range: $130,000 - $160,000 CAD based on experience and location Full-time, salary, remote position
Flexible Time off and paid holidays

How We Work
This is a fully remote role. Our team spans EST to PST, with most of the
engineering and ops team based in Eastern Time. You're welcome to work when Product Designer (Canada) 4
you're most productive, but we expect overlap with Eastern Time hours (roughly 9–5 EST) for team rituals, design syncs, and cross-functional collaboration. Early morning meetings happen occasionally - it comes with the timezone spread.
If you think systems first and can turn ambiguity into clarity, we want to hear from you.
