About the role

🌳 About Bonsai

Bonsai helps thousands of small businesses around the world start, run, and grow their businesses.

The way the world works is changing: Freelancers make up 40% of the workforce today and will be 50%+ by 2030. People want flexible and independent careers. Companies want great on-demand talent. This is one of the largest shifts since the Industrial Revolution, but the tools to support it are stuck in the 20th or even 19th centuries!

That's where Bonsai comes in. We take care of a small business’s admin work - contracts, proposals, invoices, payments, accounting & taxes and even banking - so they can focus on the work they love.

We're profitable, growing very quickly, and are backed by some of the world's best investors (YC, Matrix Partners, Index Ventures).

We've also be en 90% remote since 2016 and our team is spread across 9 different countries.

About The Role

We are seeking a skilled Product Designer who can collaborate effectively with our team of Product Managers and Engineers, working quickly and autonomously to drive forward the design of our products. The ideal candidate will have experience in both B2B and consumer SaaS product design, with a strong focus on user experience and interface design.

Responsibilities:

  • Work closely with cross-functional teams to understand product requirements and translate them into intuitive and visually appealing designs.
  • Utilize tools such as Figma for wireframing, prototyping, and creating design systems to ensure consistent user experiences across web and mobile platforms.
  • Collaborate on user flows and information architecture to optimize usability and accessibility.
  • Pay meticulous attention to detail, ensuring pixel-perfect designs that meet both aesthetic and functional requirements.
  • Design and create visual assets for product launches, including illustrations, iconography, and other graphic elements.
  • Prototype and animate interactive elements to enhance user engagement and comprehension.

Requirements:

  • 3+ years of experience in product design, preferably with a focus on SaaS products in personal finance, budgeting, task management, or related areas.
  • Strong portfolio showcasing previous design work, with an emphasis on web and mobile app design.
  • Proficiency in design tools such as Figma, with a deep understanding of design principles and best practices.
  • Experience working in a fast-paced environment, with the ability to prioritize tasks and manage multiple projects simultaneously.
  • Excellent communication and collaboration skills, with the ability to effectively present and defend design decisions.
  • Experience with illustration and graphic design is a plus.
  • Previous agency or freelance experience is a bonus.

Benefits

  • Industry leading compensation package — we know you will have a large impact on the company and we strive to compensate accordingly
  • Remote-work option — Europe or EST time zones
  • All-expenses paid team retreats — our last retreat was in Lisbon!
  • Unlimited PTO and bank holidays

If you are passionate about creating user-centric designs and thrive in a collaborative and fast-paced environment, we'd love to hear from you. Please provide a link to your Dribbble or Behance profile/portfolio along with your application.
