-----WHY STICK-----

Visual stories are the best way to share ideas, yet visuals are hard to create without a designer today.

That's why we're building Stick - a communication visualization platform that illustrates your ideas, in real time and helps you tell better stories. 

As the Founding Product Design Lead, you will need:

1. 10x Visual Design Skills: Absolute expert in communication design. Build pixel perfect user interfaces. Consumer-quality product design experience a plus.

2. Strategic Systems Thinking: product mindset enables you to balance building pixel-perfect interfaces with high-level strategic thinking. You think in systems, not only individual assets.

3. Conceptual Creativity: ability to generate wild ideas and take risks to solve tough problems. Ability to ruthlessly simplify.

4. Design for AI: you want to craft a "personality" to make an AI-powered tool feel more accessible and personalized, from writing copy to interaction design.

5. Speak Code: frontend development skills a plus. Technical communication skills a must. 

This is a full-time on-site role for our sunny office in Culver City, a short walk away from the Expo Line and the Platform. As this is a founding team role, remote is not possible.
