Senior Product Designer - Vase.ai | New Day Jobs (Yangon, Myanmar)

TL;DR

This is an opportunity for an experienced product designer to influence our product and culture as an early member of the Product and Engineering team. You might be a good fit if you enjoy building thoughtful products that empower its users in the consumer data / research space.

This role can grow into a managerial path or further IC (individual contributor) based on your interests, but it will be more of an IC role for the short term.

Must Haves

1. Experienced (not by the number of years but by overall maturity and growth in Product Design)

• For example: If you're able to decide when and if a company needs to build/revamp a Design System;
• and you can plan how to roll out said Design System (if evaluated that it is needed);
• and are able to think about other moving pieces in the company beyond only the Product Design team;
• Then we would say you can fit the category of "mature" in the Product Design space
• We also evaluate this by the kinds of work you have done and the complexity of the problems you’ve worked on

2. Willing to work as a solo designer (at least for the first 8-10 months), means you'll wear more hats than if you had a team

• Our product managers and engineers also wear multiple hats, so in the early stages you can work together with them for some of the parts of the processes (e.g. UX Research, Design Sprints, etc)
• With that said since you're the solo PD, you'll have the opportunity to build the foundation that the future product design team will be using (for example we currently have not set Product Design or UX Research stack and processes in stone).
• If you're interested you'll also be able to groom/lead that future team
• There aren't other "seniors" in the company, so we expect you to be able to make design and process decisions independently, but as mentioned, the team and overall company is pretty collaborative and understanding, so you'd find it less painful than if you were to have experienced this in most other companies

3. You should have strong opinions that are loosely held. There are cases where the form should dictate function and there are cases where the function should dictate form, and as a senior product designer, you should be able to identify which cases those are

4. Be opinionated around data visualisation and how insights are displayed

5. Be interested in our product and industry + joining a grassroots tech startup that is in the early stages of ASEAN expansion

Salary Range: MYR 7-9k

Note: We're based in Malaysia, but we're fully remote, so you don't need to be Malaysian or based in Malaysia for this role (but it's preferable if you are within the GMT+7 to +9 timezones).
