At Shef, we are building a community-based food platform. We believe in providing our community of shefs (refugees, immigrants, stay-at-home parents, retirees) the opportunity to make a meaningful income from their very own kitchens - doing what they love! We also believe that every person should have access to a wholesome, homemade meal at an affordable price. Building a community devoted to economic empowerment and cultural inclusivity -- that's why we started Shef. As one of TechCrunch's "favorite YC startups” backed by prominent Silicon Valley VCs and investors -- we have a ton of exciting work ahead of us! We are looking for a Senior Product Designer to help elevate our design culture and product development process.
ABOUT THE ROLE
We are looking for a senior designer to help guide our small but growing team, and make an instrumental impact on our design culture and how we develop welcoming products. This is an opportunity of a lifetime as you will be responsible for setting the strategy, building and evolving our design system, redefining the Shef brand, and helping deliver on impactful design projects that will serve customers across marketplaces and use cases — from building the future of food discovery, to community interactions, to order management systems, and more.
WHAT YOU'LL BE DOING
• Be a crucial part of the development process. Represent the design team with your product and engineering partners, facilitate design discussions, and help drive product development from concept to delivery.

• You strive to intimately know the people you’re designing for and how your work impacts their lives.
• You know it’s the little things that make people love a product, but you also know when it’s time to ship — You know that sometimes it’s better to validate assumptions early on.
