BetterUp is a mobile-based coaching platform that brings personalized professional coaching to employees at all levels. We help managers lead better, teams perform better, and employees thrive personally and inspire professionally. Our mission is to help professionals everywhere pursue their lives with greater clarity, purpose, and passion. Our product was developed by a team of leading behavioral scientists, researchers, and technologists. We’re already transforming the way companies approach talent development at high-performing organizations like LinkedIn, Salesforce, Visa, Deloitte, and Logitech.

BetterUp is looking for a Product Designer to join our team to design and build product experiences that enable professional coaching at scale.  Our mobile-first product connects coaches with individuals, creating powerful relationships to drive behavior change and transform a new generation of leaders.

We are a team that collaborates tightly, ships quickly, and has fun. Our small and focused team cares deeply about crafting the highest quality product experiences, and each team member has a profound impact on the vision and direction of what we deliver.  And, although we take our responsibility seriously and stay focused on delivering and iterating quickly, we always take the time to laugh, take a pause and enjoy our work and each other.

We are headquartered in San Francisco with the majority of our design and engineering team distributed across the country. Our collaborative approach to product development helps establish a highly connected and high performing environment.

This is a full-time, salaried position available on-site at our San Francisco office, or remote.  Visa sponsorship is not available for this role.  Candidates must be authorized to work in the US.

You will partner tightly with product and engineering to validate your designs, collaborate, adjust, and iterate quickly.  You will thrive in an objective-oriented environment that values collectively finding the best outcomes.
