Senior Product Designer

Our Mission

Legacybox helps families reconnect with the most meaningful moments of their lives by digitizing and preserving their recorded memories. Every photo, film reel, and tape we process is a piece of someone’s personal history,  a link between generations. We make these memories accessible and shareable for the future, while giving our customers peace of mind that their stories will endure.

About the Role

As Senior Product Designer, you’ll be both architect and craftsperson, leading the creation of the Legacybox Design System while also applying it directly to design our consumer-facing web and mobile apps. As the first in-house designer on the product team led by Vimeo’s co-founder and original designer, you’ll help set the foundation for how design operates at Legacybox, working closely with Marketing and Engineering to ship experiences that are cohesive, performant, and full of emotional resonance.

Your work will shape how millions of families see, hear, and relive their memories through beautifully designed interfaces that feel timeless and human. You’ll define our interaction patterns, design language, and component library, then bring them to life in real features and flows, from onboarding to media playback to sharing.

Work Environment

We embrace a flexible approach to work. Many of our team members are fully remote, and we value results, communication, and craftsmanship above location. We also take great pride in our hometown of Chattanooga and our multiple facilities there: our downtown office and our digitization facility, where thousands of family memories are carefully handled and converted every day.
