Clasp is looking to evolve from a purely functional product into a cohesive, enterprise-ready experience across multiple user personas. They need to address the student debt crisis and the healthcare labor shortage by connecting students with employers and enabling employers to offer student loan repayment as a benefit.
Requirements
- Case studies that clearly show how you identify problems, validate insights, design systems and interactions, and ship high-quality experiences for complex products.
- The ability to hold a large, interconnected ecosystem in your head and design scalable experiences. You understand how changes in one user portal ripple across others.
- Deep experience with Figma, including components, variables, auto layout, and prototyping. You understand how your designs map to code and collaborate effectively with engineers.
- A refined sense of typography, layout, color, and visual hierarchy, with awareness of modern product aesthetics and design patterns.
- Hands-on experience experimenting with AI tools in your workflow, and excitement about using them responsibly to accelerate output and explore new interaction models.
- Comfort partnering with Product on qualitative and quantitative research — usability tests, interviews, analytics reviews — and incorporating insights into your design process.
Responsibilities
- Own the full lifecycle of core workflows and product experiences — from ambiguous discovery and problem framing through prototyping, production, and final polish.
- Develop and maintain our product design system, driving consistency in typography, color, layout, and components as we scale.
- Use Figma (including variables and advanced interactions) to rapidly prototype and test concepts with real users, ensuring solutions are intuitive, efficient, and grounded in user behavior.
- Partner with Product to run qualitative and quantitative research — usability testing, interviews, data-driven insights — to inform decisions and strengthen our understanding of each persona.
- Work closely with Engineering to ensure seamless implementation of dynamic, data-rich interfaces, and collaborate with Product to translate user needs into clear product strategies.
- Bring a refined visual design sensibility that raises the bar for clarity, quality, and cohesion across the product.
- Explore and responsibly apply emerging AI tools to accelerate research, ideation, and design production — making your process smarter, faster, and more scalable
Other
- hybrid – 2 days a week in office
- This is a hands-on senior IC role. We’re not looking for someone to direct agencies — we need someone who’s excited to design, prototype, and ship alongside Product and Engineering.
- You’ll be the design anchor for the company, owning the experience for core users (students, recruiters, payroll teams, and more).
- Experience in Healthcare or Health-Tech
- Multi-Sided Product Experience
