About the opportunity

As the Principal Product Designer for , you’ll be responsible for driving the strategic experience direction of this business segment, and involved in the entire product development process from research to creating a vision to iterating on an experience for launch. Given that this initiative and team are still relatively new, you’ll have a lot of opportunity for influence to shape the direction of the team and the practice. Gusto is first and foremost customer-driven. We take pride in making informed decisions based on customer research and data while balancing short and long term technical decisions. If you are a strategic customer advocate who enjoys complex problems and improving customer experiences, we’d love to hear from you

Here’s what you’ll do day-to-day:

You’ll drive the research strategy for Gusto Embedded Payroll, cultivate deep empathy for our customers and translate both qualitative insights and quantitative data into creative ideas and informed design decisions — while encouraging everyone on the team to deepen their understanding and connection to our customers. Strategically balance the needs of this complex ecosystem of customers: Employees, their employers, and developers integrating Gusto Embedded Payroll. Design a great developer experience starting from our through to powerful admin tools to empower developers who are building great payroll experiences on top of Gusto’s platform.  Work with senior leadership in Gusto’s Embedded Payroll team to provide expertise on how to create a flexible system that empowers developers to build approachable, easy-to-use integrated payroll experiences for employers and their employees.

Cultivate a creative design process that is built on inclusion and strong cross-functional collaboration. Provide and seek feedback from other designers to always push the bar for quality.

Here’s what we're looking for:

8+ years’ experience — with a good portion of that time spent working on platform, ecosystem or developer experience teams. Experience designing and shipping complex products founded in data and customer insights. Ability to form clear hypotheses around design decisions and lay out a path to validate them. Industry experience designing at every step of the development process, from brainstorming to post-launch research. Generative and evaluative research experience. Strong UX craft — you can break down complex experiences and design with consideration for all touch points.  Experience balancing long-term design goals with an Agile-based iterative approach.  Strong communication skills and enthusiasm for collaborating across the entire company. Ability to embrace ambiguous situations as opportunities to create. Passion for Gusto’s mission and the impact we can have on the world.

At Gusto, we strive to provide rewards that empower employees to achieve their financial and personal goals. We offer competitive compensation packages with a strong emphasis on equity based compensation (ownership in Gusto). Our cash compensation range for this role is $152,000/yr to $232,000/yr in Denver & most remote locations, and $185,000/yr to $251,000/yr in Seattle, San Francisco & New York. Final offer amounts are determined by multiple factors, including candidate experience and expertise, and may vary from the amounts listed above.

Gusto has physical office spaces in Denver, San Francisco, and New York City. Employees who are based in those locations will be expected to work from the office on designated days approximately 2-3 days per week (or more depending on role). The same office expectations apply to all Symmetry roles, Gusto's subsidiary, whose physical office is in Scottsdale.

Note: The San Francisco office expectations encompass both the San Francisco and San Jose metro areas. 

When approved to work from a location other than a Gusto office, a secure, reliable, and consistent internet connection is required.

Our customers come from all walks of life and so do we. We hire great people from a wide variety of backgrounds, not just because it's the right thing to do, but because it makes our company stronger. If you share our values and our enthusiasm for small businesses, you will find a home at Gusto.
