Junior Product Designer

Who we are:

Sellers use the platform to list used outdoor gear, and we handle payments, shipping labels and buyer protection. Two million people a month visit our recipe and meal planning site, which earns money from ads and a paid membership. Product reviews happen on Thursdays, with demos of whatever shipped that week.

About the role:

• Contribute components and patterns to the design system.

Requirements:

• Experience designing for both web and mobile.
