We’re seeking a seasoned and creative Product Designer to help inspire people to support creators and bring creative projects to life.
About the Team
Whether it’s a first-time backer or a superbacker, our Backer Development Team’s mission is to connect people with projects they might like and to build the story of what it means to be a Kickstarter backer. Working with features like discovery, push recommendations, newsletters, and search, we build excitement about creative projects, make connections between backers and creators, and grow communities centered around creativity. We are a group of engineers, designers, data analysts, community support specialists and more who work to understand and serve both existing backer communities and new communities of potential backers and patrons.
In This Role, You Will:
Wireframe, design, and prototype new features.
Turn challenging workflows into simple, usable, and elegant experiences.
Present, review, and communicate your design work and the work of your teammates.
Collaborate closely with Product and Engineering Teammates on delivering high quality product experiences.
Help shape the product experience and roadmap through clear communication and feedback.
About You:
You have solid cross-platform and device product design experience.
You have a developed and inspiring visual design portfolio.
You understand how data and research inform your design craft.
You are a capable communicator with a knack for translating vision and intent into meaningful design.
You want to seek out and develop a design process that encourages collaboration between other designers and Product Teams.
You communicate design decisions openly and confidently, regardless of the audience—engineers, PMs, executives, other designers, et al.
You are open to changing your opinion in the face of new information or a better understanding of product goals—you have strong beliefs, but you’re open-minded.
Bonus Points if you: prototype your own work. Many of us are multi-disciplinary—a lot of our designers deploy product code, manage our CSS library, and prototype in a variety of tools. If you’re a designer who likes to bring their ideas to life, you’ll feel right at home.
Bonus points if you: are a creator. We love to work with fellow creators who are excited about having a visible impact on our diverse creative community. Not only does being a creator help you empathize with our users, it also makes for interesting conversation with the many writers, musicians, painters, and artists who work here.
Kickstarter is an equal opportunity employer. As part of our commitment to fight for equality, we work to ensure a fair and consistent interview process. We celebrate diversity and we are committed to an inclusive work environment.

About the Role
The Team Lead for Creator Development is a new role that will lead a cross-functional team mandated to make people aware of, and excited about, using Kickstarter to fund their projects.
About the Team
To achieve that mandate, the Creator Development team will define what it means to be a creator on Kickstarter, build relationships and excitement around Kickstarter within creative communities, and conceptualize, build, and iterate on the tools that will help creators build better projects.
These projects and initiatives will bridge disciplines and break formats. But they will all be built with the same spirit of independence, innovation, and deep respect for creative work that shines through Kickstarter.
About You
You've done this before.
You have a profound, experienced understanding of how to activate and scale communities — both digitally and physically.
You are fluent in product. You understand how to productize experiences and tools in order to provide support at scale, and you know how to build the right tools to activate and support creators.
You have an intuitive sense for UX and understand how to build usable, user-friendly products with a good, singular perspective.
You're a self-motivated optimist who brings out the best in those around you.
You’ve led a team before and know how to communicate with, project manage, and organize across multiple disciplines.
You have a natural instinct for design. You don’t have to be a designer, but you have a sense for what looks good and why.
You are deeply curious and will approach formulating an identity for creators on Kickstarter with your eyes wide open. You understand how to, and will be willing to, interrogate your own assumptions.
You have a strong point of view and are confident in your ability to shape a user’s perspective and experience through parallel community engagement initiatives and product development.

Company Overview
Fundrise is the first investment platform to create a simple, low-cost way for anyone to unlock real estate’s historically consistent and exceptional returns. Our technology and world-class real estate private equity management provide access to a level of investment performance that only the wealthiest investors have enjoyed — until now.
We're proud to be a Washington Post 2018 "Top Workplace" and #35 on the 2018 Inc. 5000 of fastest growing private companies. We exclusively hire creative, collaborative, and results-driven people with a penchant for bold ideas and an obsession with solving problems.
Job Summary
We’re seeking a talented, passionate front-end developer to help us realize our vision of a world-class online investing experience. You will work on a daily basis with the engineering, marketing, design, and product teams to improve existing features on the website and implement new ones, constantly iterating and improving them along the way.
This position will take responsibility for and have ownership over the translation of design comps with varying levels of fidelity into semantically correct, organized, performant code. Our team is small, so you will have a chance to have a significant and immediate impact on our growing user base and the overall success of our business. This means you'll have ownership over your work from approach through development to validating its performance in a production environment.
Ideally, you are:
Design-minded. You write code but have an eye for design. You care about things like vertical rhythm, content hierarchy, and responsive layouts. You regularly provide feedback on design and propose alternatives.
Pragmatic. Sometimes the best solution is the simplest and sometimes it’s not. You think critically about the task at hand and are constantly discussing and evaluating the trade-offs in different approaches - recognizing there are different ways to solve a problem.
Curious. You are naturally curious about things you don't understand and actively look for opportunities to grow and learn from those around you.
Detail-oriented. You care deeply about the quality of your work and recognize the value in consistency. You know when 80/20 solutions are sufficient and when that extra push can make all the difference.
Requirements
3+ years professional experience as a designer or developer.
Equally comfortable in Sketch or Photoshop as well as your preferred code editor.
Excellent knowledge of the potential and shortcomings of a variety of browsers, operating systems, and screen sizes.
Experience with source control and repository management (git).
Superior written and verbal communication skills.
Experience working with different teams and stakeholders.
Used to receiving and providing critical, constructive feedback.
Core skill areas:
HTML
CSS (via Sass)
Javascript (via Angular)
Sketch or Photoshop
