Role overview
We're looking for a Product Design Lead to own UX/UI across our Ü Snacks brand portfolio, from launching new products to optimizing site performance and user flows. The role is a hands‑on, maker‑first position that reports directly to the VP of Ecommerce and includes a small people‑management component. It is fully remote with bi‑annual off‑sites and a high‑trust work culture.
Responsibilities
- Lead UX/UI across the full funnel (PDP, cart, checkout, account, first‑order flow) with an eye on conversion
- Design experiences for new product and brand launches that match packaging quality from day one
- Own and evolve our cross‑brand design system (Figma components, tokens, patterns) so every brand ships fast without quality drift
- Translate our brand books into a premium digital experience across typography, motion, imagery, and information hierarchy
- Partner with the CRO team to keep the landing page test pipeline full with high‑quality, on‑brand variants
- Manage and mentor a direct report, setting the craft bar and helping them grow into a stronger designer
- Review and calibrate work across the design team and agency partners, raising the bar on everything that ships
Requirements
- Has 8+ years in product/UX/UI design, including 5+ years designing for premium DTC ecommerce on Shopify or Shopify Plus
- Has built or rebuilt a design system from the ground up, including tokens, components, documentation, and governance, and can point to real adoption
- Has a portfolio that shows unmistakably on‑brand, premium work, not a templated Shopify build
- Understands DTC funnel mechanics deeply (PDP, cart, checkout, subscription, upsell) and can explain design decisions in conversion terms
- Has experience designing across multiple brands or product lines at once
- Is a power user of Figma and uses AI to speed up their own design process
Nice to have
- Approach to the role: operates as a player‑coach, shipping work personally while raising the bar for the team
- Balances craft and conversion on every decision and can articulate the trade‑off
- Brings a strong point of view without ego and collaborates well across growth, brand, lifecycle, and engineering
- Owns the outcome, doesn’t wait for a perfect brief, pulls context and moves
Benefits
- Competitive total compensation package with base salary range $140,000-$160,000 plus bonus based on experience
- Comprehensive benefits coverage for employee and family
- Generous paid time off (PTO)
- Free Grüns subscriptions
- Health and well‑being perks
- Fully remote work environment with bi‑annual in‑person off‑sites
Additional details
- Company mission: provide simple, convenient, and comprehensive nutrition through gummies with 60 nutrient‑dense whole‑food ingredients
- Emphasis on high standards, ownership, and impact-driven culture
- Grüns is a nutrition company dedicated to replacing low‑quality supplements with convenient, delicious gummies
