The Opportunity

We’re looking for a Senior Product Designer who has a proven track record of shipping thoughtful workflows and experiences curated through rapid user research (qualitative, quantitative, ethnographic) and is able to build trust amongst the team, lead with a vision, drive quality, foster a collaborative environment, and iterate quickly on taking ideas to reality. If you love what you do and want to work in a fast-paced, entrepreneurial environment that will challenge you to do your best, then we’d love to meet you. Your contributions will have a direct impact on the growth of Buildout and you can bring your passion for great products to the table everyday.

How You’ll Contribute

• Design thoughtful user experiences that make the complexities of broker and brokerage operations easy to navigate and understand
• Help bring new products to market and shape the commercial real estate industry
• Work closely with Product Managers to help define product vision and strategy and conduct self-managed UX research to discover or validate the impact of a feature you are working on for our customers
• Be the voice-of-the-customer within your product focus, and clearly communicate your design decisions to stakeholders to help build user empathy throughout the organization
• Craft useful and usable experiences through diagrams, sketches, wireframes, prototypes, and visual designs that allow stakeholders to see the user journey through new product features & solutions, then handoff to our software developersand validate that the implementation matches your vision

• Partner with another designer to co-maintain a high-fidelity interactive prototype that acts as the team’s shared source of truth for customer validation, stakeholder alignment, and sales demos. Using Figma alongside AI tooling like Claude Code, you’ll turn designed frames into working screens far faster than static prototyping allows. The prototype communicates the experience, not production code.

• Sync regularly with your design partner to keep the prototype coherent as it grows, aligning on patterns, components,and conventions so it reads as one product with a shared design language.

• Help us build and maintain relevant personas for your product(s)and leverage research to review them periodically

• Build confidence for your design vision based on an understanding of the personasand intended outcomes

• Participate in weekly UX meetings to share ideasand exchange feedback

• Mentor a small team of UX and Product Designers

• Take the work, but not yourself, seriously

What Makes a Great Candidate

• 5+ years of professional experience in UX/UI as a user experience designer or product designer with a strong portfolio of design projects including detailed descriptions of your design process
• Experience with a SaaS product portfolio and new product introduction
• Working knowledge of web technologiesand their constraints,and a passion for creating complex systemsand keeping them well maintained
• Comfortable building interactive prototypeswith AI-assisted tools, or eager to learn. No software development background required.
• Comfortable leadingand assisting in user research activities, design sprints,and workshops
• Expertise in Figma,and be knowledgeable of UX/UI standards, protocols,and methodologies for both responsiveand mobile app design to take incomplete requirementsand produce consistent, usable wireframesand high fidelity mockups
• Comfortable embracing uncertaintyand challenging the team with new ideas
• Experience working in a startupis a plus, but not required
• Commercial Real Estate experience is a plus, but not required
