New Zealand Partly Full time

_Note: Partly is headquartered in Christchurch but has employees across NZ, AU and UK. If relocating to Christchurch, we would cover those costs. If working remote, we would pay for any visits to HQ (at least once per quarter)._
**Our story**
Partly's mission is to connect the world's parts. We're building the first global platform for replacement parts, starting with auto parts. We've more than tripled our team over the last 12 months and expect to double in size over the next 18 months. We're a global team spanning both Europe and Australasia.

Founded by ex-Rocket Lab engineers, we utilise bleeding-edge technology to solve challenging but exciting problems that make a huge impact in a $1.9 trillion industry.

We provide a scalable digital infrastructure solution to some of the world's largest businesses and the most exciting startups. Partly's solutions are integrated across hundreds of companies globally, providing the backbone for cataloguing and managing parts online.

Blackbird Ventures (Canva, CultureAmp etc.) led both our Pre-Seed and Seed rounds, alongside I2BF (NYC), Hillfarrance, Icehouse, Peter Beck (Rocket Lab), Akshay Kothari (Notion Co-Founder) and Dylan Field (Figma Co-Founder).

**This role**
We are looking for an extremely ambitious Product Designer to join our team. You will have experience working in a cross-functional team building digital products and are looking to take the next step in your career.

In this role, you will work alongside our product team to tackle exciting user journeys and design problems. You will have experience in user research, journey mapping, creating prototypes, user testing, as well as high-fidelity designs, plus a general flair for graphic design.

**What will you do**
- Build out the design function at Partly
- Alongside a product manager, conduct user interviews to gather feedback, validate ideas, and test designs
- Assist in mapping the customer journey and identifying areas of improvement
- Work with the product manager and engineers to turn ideas into rapid designs
- Create high-fidelity designs, collaborating with the engineering team to build the product
- Improving and making changes to our website and broad graphic design-tasks
- Understand all the Partly elements (Partly API, PartsPal, UVDB, and GAPC) and improve how they interact with each other
- Identify new product improvement opportunities
- Create consistent but distinct illustrations for each of our products and show how they interact

**Your skills**
- 3-5 years experience in product design, UX design or a similar role
- Strong ability to empathise with users
- Proven experience in all phases of the design process including user research, copywriting, wireframing, prototyping, visual design, interaction design, and usability testing
- An intuitive eye for customer needs beyond the obvious
- A good understanding of cars and car parts
- Excellent attention to detail
- Ability to collaborate with cross-functional team members
- Ability to collect and interpret both qualitative and quantitative feedback
- Experience with design programs like Figma, Illustrator and Sketch
- Ability to effectively communicate and persuade around design concepts
- Passion for design; not satisfied with the status quo and always thinking of ways to improve
- Creative problem-solving skills

**Benefits**
- **Competitive base salary plus equity**. Even though we're a small startup, we offer competitive salaries and great equity.
- **Parental leave and flexible return to work**. After returning to work, primary carers can work 4-day weeks for 100% of their pay for the first twelve weeks. For secondary carers, we offer 10 days of leave at full pay.
- **Flexible working hours and location**. We have an office-first culture, but you can work remotely or from home whenever it suits you. There are no fixed hours so you can choose to work when you're most effective.
- **A brand new architecturally designed office in Christchurch CBD**. With free snacks, drinks on tap, two different coffee machines, social areas, and one of the best cafes in Christchurch 50m away.
- **Cultural lunches**. Monthly team lunches to eat food from another culture and celebrate our team's ethnic diversity.
- **Ergonomic workspace**. Sit-stand desks, ergonomic chairs, quiet spaces, and collaboration spaces to suit all kinds of working styles.
