Float is the world’s leading software for teams to plan their time. Launched in 2012, we have grown every year since and remain proudly independent, self-funded, and profitable.
We are a team of 50 working 100% remotely, and you will be partnering with team members based globally, including Australia, Mexico, Canada, Nigeria, and the USA.
We’re on a scale-up journey, seeking people who thrive in this building stage. You will be given the autonomy and opportunity to do the best work of your career.
Why We are Hiring for this Role:
At Float, we’re not just growing; we’re growing with purpose. Our Product Trio model ensures we design and build for our customers, with each discipline acting as a partner.
A Product Trio at Float is made up of three key team members:
Designer: Focuses on user experience and interaction.
Product Manager: Concentrates on product strategy, market fit, and customer needs.
Engineer: Ensures technical feasibility and implementation.
Trios collaborate on insights into our customer needs and behaviors gained from UX research and data gathered across the organization.
You will have the opportunity to design a best-in-class experience that empowers teams to work better. Product Designers at Float work all the way from the initial idea to the full finished product release as our Product Trios collaboratively define and execute their roadmap informed by our company-wide OKRs.
On our current journey from startup to scale-up, you’ll help shape our design team and influence the role of design in the wider company context.
As Float is scaling and growing, the capacity for design input and outputs working across the Product Trios is also growing. While supporting a Product Trio, you’ll join as a member of the Design Team headed up by Cam, our Director of Design.
In addition to Cam, the current Design team includes two other Product Designers and a Visual Designer.
We’re looking for a proactive full-stack Product Designer excited about balancing user needs with business requirements.
What You will be Responsible for:
As a Product Designer, you will incrementally take ownership of the design function inside your dedicated Product Trio.
Early on, you will be supported to:
Once you are more settled, we expect that you:
What You will Bring:
As a fully remote team, we look for people comfortable with asynchronous communication as the default for all of our roles.
This means you have previous remote experience and are comfortable using tools like Slack, Loom, and Linear to communicate as needed.
Don’t worry — you will have significant deep work time since we have few meetings.
Why Join Us:
Pay for this role is US $ 125,339.
You’ll be working with a smart, dedicated team from across the globe asynchronously, focusing on taking complex problems and creating solutions that feel simple and intuitive for our customers.
We’re a global async remote company with a diverse team of people from all over the world who share a common belief in living our best work life.
We believe deeply in the idea of transparency and share our Float Handbook publicly so potential new team members can see firsthand our perks & benefits, and ways of working.
If you feel like you can thrive at Float to do your best work, we would love to hear from you.
