Senior Product Designer (Hybrid)

Hi, Future Homie!

At Homebase, you’ll join a team that’s bold, fast-moving, and obsessed with helping small businesses thrive. We build with empathy, act with urgency, and take big swings that drive real-world impact. Here, every Homie shows up to raise the bar, support one another, and celebrate wins as a team.

We’re not just building an app—we’re building unstoppable teams. So what do you say, are you in?

📍Your Impact Starts Here

As a Senior Product Designer at Homebase, you'll tackle meaningful problems for small businesses and the hourly workers who power them. This role requires someone who can navigate complexity—understanding how workflows connect across a business, knowing when AI can genuinely help and how to apply it, and translating messy real-world constraints into experiences that feel effortless.

Where you land will depend on your strengths and our evolving needs, but one thing is certain: you'll own work that matters.

Here's how you'll contribute:

• Lead with Curiosity: Dive into unfamiliar problem spaces, ask better questions, and bring a genuine eagerness to understand our customers—their constraints, their workarounds, their goals.

• Design for Connected Systems: Think beyond individual screens. Our products—scheduling, time tracking, payroll, hiring, team communication—are deeply interconnected. You'll design solutions that make sense within a larger ecosystem, not just in isolation.

• Thrive in Ambiguity: Push forward when the path isn't clear. You'll shape direction, not just follow it—bringing structure to fuzzy problems and momentum to early-stage work.

• Craft with Intention: Ground your UI decisions in strong UX foundations. Every interaction should help someone get their job done with less friction.

• Embrace AI as a Tool: Use AI to accelerate your own work and design experiences where AI genuinely serves the user—not just because it's novel.

• Move Fast: Speed is our edge. Prioritize ruthlessly, make decisions, learn, and adapt.

🚀 The Foundation for Success - These are the experiences and strengths that will set you up for success in this role:

• Seasoned Leadership: Demonstrated leadership capabilities, with a track record of inspiring teams and peers, and driving complex projects to success.

• Recent native mobile experience: while you won’t be limited to native experiences, recent experience (within the last 3 years) is a significant and critical part of this role.

• Master of UI/UX: Exceptional skills in both User Interface and User Experience design, clearly demonstrated through a distinguished portfolio.

• Strategic Thinker: Adept at understanding and implementing large-scale business implications of design decisions within the tech landscape.

• AI Proficiency: Extensive experience with AI tools in design, enhancing both process and product quality.

• Proven experience in platform and messaging product design.

• Up-to-date with the latest industry trends and AI technologies.

🤝  The Homie Way - These principles guide everything we do—from how we work and make decisions to how we show up for each other.

• 💡 Be Customer Obsessed – Solve problems with empathy and creativity.

• ⚡ Move Fast, Learn Fast – Experiment, take action, and grow every day.

• 🏅 Win Together – Put goals over roles, lead with trust, and connect to our mission and each other.
