About us:
Parabola is the spreadsheet alternative where you combine the data running throughout your company and create automated processes.
Pull in data from any source you can imagine—from scattered spreadsheets and tools, to emails and PDFs—and build logic that replicates the manual work you do every day. Use our canvas to combine and transform your data, and surface the results to the right people at the right time so you can do more with the data you rely on. In the process, you’ll codify the steps for every workflow you manage so they become repeatable, shareable, and usable for the whole team.
Create solutions for the problems you’ve always wanted to solve, and make your work more shareable and impactful along the way.
Parabola is proud to serve companies like Flexport, Sonos, Uber Freight, Brooklinen, and Chubbies and is backed by OpenView Partners, Matrix Partners, Thrive Capital and more.
About the role:
Parabola is looking for a Product Design Lead with exceptional design, communication and collaboration skills to join our growing EPD team as the most senior product design partner within our org. As our Product Design Lead, you will ensure our products and features are valuable for people, easy to use, and of the highest level of craft and execution. You will shape the design direction at Parabola, spanning building innovative new product experiences while also maintaining a consistent and approachable design system for Parabola’s audience. In this role, you'll be a foundational member on the EPD team (Engineering, Product, Design), working closely with your counterparts in engineering, product, and other disciplines across GTM, as well as aiding in scaling the Product Design function.
We have some exciting initiatives in the works and are eager to find a designer ready for the challenge. A high-priority project includes expanding our AI-powered steps for normalizing unstructured data and our AI co-builder, which assists new users and helps existing ones perform bulk actions. If you’re excited by this and other projects, like dynamic dashboards and data visualizations, we'd love for you to apply. You can learn more about what's new at Parabola here!
Things to know about how we work:
Exchanging feedback is our way of life. We value making good decisions together — as a team — and welcome input from everyone. Great ideas come from anywhere, feedback makes your designs better, and the designs are ours, not mine or yours.
???? We want to ship quickly, but execute well. As a startup, we value speedy shipping. The Design team helps empower our partners to ship quickly, but while still maintaining a high quality bar. Balancing those things is at the core of our day to day designing and decision-making.
The product is friendly (and it’s awesome), but it’s technical. We lean on and trust in our customer conversations, CX, Product, and Engineering partners to make informed decisions and design intuitive interactions.
️ We work in Figma. And it works really well for us. That includes our visual system and a lot of marketing surfaces as well.
????We use a lot of modals! Check out our blog post why.

Design high-quality experiences for our audience that are simple and elegant.
Lead and oversee the user experience of products from conception to launch in partnership with product managers, engineers, and customer facing cross-functional teams.
Collaborate with product management, engineering, and other teams to ensure consistent implementation of design components.
Be a key contributor to the companies product strategy, organizational needs, and aid in scaling the Product Design team.
Help deliver and refine clear storytelling around product needs and opportunities.
What (we think) you'll need to do it
5+ years of experience in Product Design, ideally in a fast-growing and complex B2B startup.
Experience working independently and collaboratively to explore design solutions from concept to implementation.
Opinionated about what best-in-class Product Design looks like, with a light bias towards simplicity in design.
Proficiency in prototyping your ideas to help articulate nuanced design decisions.
Experience leading product direction and strategic thinking ie developing product goals, identifying product opportunities, and making product decisions based on their impact to your end users and the company.
Experience representing your work to a broader product team and other leaders clearly and succinctly articulating the goals and concepts.
You're excited to join a hybrid team and work out of our downtown SF office ~3 days a week.
Nice to haves:

Frontend coding experience (ie Typescript, React, HTLM/CSS).
