About Quilt Health
Quilt Health is building a platform to accelerate access to transformative care for rare and complex conditions, starting with Sickle Cell Disease (SCD) and other complex hematologic conditions. We are at a watershed moment in medical and scientific innovation, with a biopharma pipeline full of therapies with the potential to alter the course of a growing range of diseases. Yet, access to cutting edge care for these diseases is fragmented, inefficient, and inequitable. Through an engagement platform and tools that streamline care delivery and research, we act as accelerators, powering Research and Development (R&D) and drug access and removing barriers to treatment that could undermine years of progress and investment.

Role Overview

We’re looking for a seasoned UX/UI Designer who is excited about the opportunity to join an early-stage startup and shape the experience of our platform and brand. In this role, you’ll report to our Head of Product and work closely with our founding team to create the initial version of our application, which means you’ll get to lead the design of our product and iterate over time based on user research and customer feedback. You will be the first full-time designer to join our growing team, so you’ll need to be comfortable spending time both designing our product and engaging in our early marketing efforts.

You will largely work with internal team members on these efforts (e.g. developers, strategists, and leadership), though you’ll interface with potential customers, stakeholders, and vendors as well. We’re looking for someone who can grow a scalable design system that we can apply across our product, website, marketing collateral, and other channels. You’ll translate user research findings and feedback from potential customers and stakeholders into intuitive, accessible, and user-friendly designs.

In summary, you are senior enough to tackle everything design related, but have the can-do start up energy and attitude to execute on it as well.

If you’re excited about the opportunity to join a mission-driven organization and play a pivotal role in shaping how patients, providers, and stakeholders engage with our product and brand, this could be the perfect role for you!
