Hi I’m Vlad, the founding designer at Paper .

I’m excited to share that we are opening up a current principal-level Product Designer role on the product team, to join us on our quest to build a beautiful, open, fast, collaborative tool that designers love.

About us

Good design is at the center of Paper . We started Paper not even two years ago because we love the design space, and there’s a special satisfaction in building a tool you’re excited to use yourself every day.

Today, we are incredibly grateful for the momentum: growing revenue, world-class companies asking us to be a bigger part of their workflows, an unusually strong fan base, and a top-tier group of investors behind us, such as Accel , Basecase , and ICONIQ .

Paper is already used by designers in production at our favorite companies:

Role and requirements

This role is principal-level: an extensive body of work and recognition in the industry is expected.

Product Designer

- Exceptional generalist with a home base in product design, plus a track record of creating striking visual design and building brands
- Able to lead and direct design work across the company while still being an individual product design contributor on critical projects
- Expansive knowledge of creative tools and workflows




- Problem-solving mindset; you are allergic to complexity
- Excited about getting technical and working with engineers
- Obsessive about details without losing sight of the bigger picture

Values

- Highest agency and motivation: startups are hard, we show up every day and make progress
- Nothing’s off limits: you see what needs to happen and you help make it happen
- Always improving: you love analyzing prototypes in a group and helping each other ship quality work
- High velocity: we ship to production many times per week

What we offer

You’ll have everything to do your best work: excellent tools, a generous budget for your gear, and flexible hours. Our team is fully remote, with team members across the Americas, Europe, and Australia, and a yearly team get-together to enjoy each other’s company.

We’re also pretty small - right now, it’s just 12 of us. Each of us values the freedom and leverage that comes from being in a small team, and it’s a culture we will maintain.

Being at an early-stage startup you also get meaningful equity in the company.

- Take-home and/or a 1-2 week paid trial project

The objective of the trial project is to ship a complete feature for Paper , working and communicating with the team directly in Slack and GitHub as a regular member. We will be flexible about how the trial project is arranged according to your availability.
