Staff Designer
Otter, San Francisco, CA +1
What you will do
We're looking for a Staff Designer to take on the biggest, messiest, most ambiguous problems at Otter, the ones that don't have an owner yet because nobody's figured out what the real problem even is. This isn't a role where you're handed a brief. You'll go find the thing worth solving, make the case for why it matters, and lead it from a rough idea to something real, shipped, and unmistakably Otter. You will:
- Spot the P0 problems other people haven't seen yet, and make the case for why they matter
- Take a vague, company-level direction and turn it into a concrete plan, then rally the people needed to build it
- Own initiatives that cut across teams, not confined to one roadmap or one pod
- Raise the bar on what Otter feels like, pushing every surface toward something more cohesive, more considered, more us
- Bring energy and craft to work that's often invisible until it's done right, then impossible to imagine any other way
- Mentor and sharpen the designers around you just by how you work, no direct reports required
