Menlo Park, United States Debtsy Full time
January AI:

Founded by veteran business executive, Noosheen Hashemi, and Director of Genomics and Personalized Medicine at Stanford University, Dr. Michael Snyder, January AI is the first "precision health" company that combines continuous glucose monitoring along with heart rate, sleep, activity and food tracking, to enable you to see the impact of your diet and exercise on your body in real-time.

We help you understand your personal metabolic health, i.e. how your body metabolizes food, and make simple changes to avoid serious health issues down the road. The need for this has never been greater: 1 in 3 adults in the US are now pre-diabetic, and 80% are not even aware of it. January's app and continuous glucose monitor gives you immediate insights on your diet and blood sugar levels, and provides personalized recommendations on how to adjust your diet and activity to improve your overall metabolic wellbeing. We help you build better habits in just 30 days.

At January AI, we believe that every day is January 1st, that every day is a fresh start. We believe that health isn't a place you reach, but the simple process of understanding your body and doing just a little better than yesterday.

January AI is backed by Marc Benioff (CEO and founder of Salesforce), Jerry Yang (founder of Yahoo), and Steve Chen (founder of YouTube), among others.

You enjoy working with diverse stakeholders, from marketers and product managers, to engineers and scientists and potentially other designers.

Responsibilities
    • Leading world class digital product design, from concepting to implementation, continuously evolving January's app and brand experience across touchpoints.
    • Pushing brand expression in the digital medium through visual design and UX.
    • Leading 1-2 product and/or brand designers working on different components of January AI app and experience. Coaching individuals and teams through a design lens, and delivering constructive critique to uphold craft.
    • Scoping design projects with designers, producers and tech leads to catalyze and prioritize design efforts.
    • Collaborating with marketing and other business stakeholders - proactively spotting opportunities to elevate user experience and grow the business. Facilitating cross-functional inputs into the design process, and being an advocate of great UX/UI.
    • Continuously evolving and setting the bar for design at January AI, pulling in best practices and modeling a consistent curiosity for inspiration from outside the company.
Qualifications
    • 8+ years working on an in-house digital product or at a digital consulting firm
    • Experience managing, hiring, and supporting the development of other designers
    • Demonstrated experience leading an end-to-end design process, from user research to prototyping to implementation and iteration
    • Skillset in both visual interaction design as well as structural UX and digital product architecture
    • Experience with both native mobile design and web
    • Experience coding and/or working closely with developers to prototype in code
    • Start-up and e-commerce experience is desired
