Fields, facilities, trucks, forecasts… our software lives in the physical world, where it either works or it doesn't.\n What we're building\nSoftware for people who don't have time for bad software. The interface has to be fast, legible, and obvious under real conditions.\nWho we're looking for\nA designer with real visual craft who also understands why a screen works, not just how to make it look good. We're titling this role UI on purpose. A lot of people claim UX, but we want to see the pixels. The job runs the full width: research and structure through to high-fidelity and handoff.\nYou might be a fit if:\nYou have a portfolio that shows genuine visual and interaction craft, and you can walk us through the why behind the work.\nYou're fluent in Figma, prototyping, and design systems.\nYou're grounded in the fundamentals: research, information architecture, interaction design.\nYou design for the real user in the real context, and you go find out what that context actually is.\nYou hand off clean, and you stay engaged through implementation.\nWhat you'll do\nOwn the interface: high-fidelity design, interaction, and the visual language across every surface of the product.\nBuild and maintain a design system that holds up as the product and team grow.\nDo the upstream work (information architecture, flows, wireframes) before committing to hi-fi.\nTalk to users. Run interviews and usability tests, and turn what you learn into concrete design changes.\nPartner with Engineering, Product, and Customer Experience from concept through shipped.\nWhat this isn't\nThis isn't a role where Product hands you a spec and you skin it. This isn't visual-only. If you want to do interface polish without touching research or structure, this is the wrong seat. We want a designer who owns the problem from question to pixel.\nWhat you'll get\nOwnership of the product's entire interface and design system, real users with real problems to design for, and a team that cares about the craft.\nOn-site, San Luis Obispo, CA.
