Senior Product Designer

A well-established events SaaS company is expanding into Raleigh, NC and looking to hire a Senior Product Designer to work closely with the CTO on the next evolution of their platform.

Their existing web application supports thousands of venues and event planners, helping them manage bookings, contracts, payments, client relationships, and day-to-day operations. With a strong customer base, proven product-market fit, and a profitable business, they are now investing in a new AI-native product experience built for the future of the industry.

This is an early and highly influential hire offering the opportunity to shape the direction of a next-generation platform from the ground up.

In this role, you’ll lead discovery and design initiatives that directly influence product strategy and design systems. That includes conducting customer research, analyzing competitors, and identifying best practices across emerging AI-driven products in adjacent markets. You’ll turn those insights into intuitive user experiences, workflows, build wireframes, prototypes and working with Figma.
