Job Description

Lead Designer

LeftLane is looking for our 1st founding designer for our B2B vSaaS app in the used car space. It is LeftLane's mission to become the operating system for the 70k independent used car dealerships across the nation.

LeftLane helps independent dealerships manage the lifecycle of their inventory, secure financing for their customers, keep accounting records, comply with regulations, and learn more about their business.

This is an opportunity to get significant equity, significant responsibility, and ultimately, build a product that enables small businesses to serve ~40 million used car buyers every year. Here is some background context on the company.
Responsibilities

As our first designer, you'll be owning design end-to-end, working directly with the CEO & CTO to drive UX, and will interact directly with customers to gather feedback. You'll have a loud voice in driving early decisions.

You'll need to:

• own design from user testing to implementation and beyond
• drive and evangelize best practices for design
• facilitate a clean handoff to engineers

This will be a good fit if you:

• think an early-stage startup would be fun
• are excited about the upside potential
• are ambitious i.e. want to run your own team or be a founder yourself in the future
• take ownership of problems i.e. will do what needs to be done
• you like being rewarded directly for your high output

This will not be a good fit if:

• you want to specialize strongly in one area
• you cannot iterate quickly
• cannot take ownership and initiative

The Design Stack

We currently use:

• notion to capture docs
• whimsical for early wire frames and flow charts
• figma for user testing
• storybook for eng. handoff

Logistics

• Full time only
• Onsite/Remote: We prefer a flexible onsite model. Given how early we are we believe it will let us move the fastest and collaborate the smoothest.
• Hours : At the end of the day what matters is the work and so you'll control your hours (if you need to WFH for X reason or swap a Monday for a Saturday or XYZ you can do that as long as expectations for work are being met), but we expect some minimum overlap with the team to make collaboration flow, 4/5 days a week 10 - 4 in the office would be a reasonable base

Benefits

• competitive salary
• significant equity granted as RSAs (this is a big deal, ask us about it!)
• 100% paid high tier health / vision / dental plans (ultra premium 90% covered)
• unlimited paid time off
• 11 paid company holidays
