What are the responsibilities and job description for the Product Designer position at Pylon?
At Pylon, we're building the future of B2B Post Sales.
Top support and success teams at companies like Hightouch, Merge, and Sardine use Pylon to manage their customer support across Slack Connect, Microsoft Teams, Email, In-App Chat, Slack Community—all in one place.
We're building a core system of record, an all-in-one product that has a massive surface area and complex design problems. We believe design is important and is a major product differentiator over incumbents. This is not about mindless pixel pushing, you will be distilling down customer feedback and collaborating with engineers to ship huge features equivalent to entire product lines at other companies. We're early too, this is an opportunity to set the design vision and the design system for Pylon.
What You'll Do
Traction: Have hundreds of paying customers and are growing 15% MoM
Funding: In addition to investment from Y Combinator and General Catalyst, we just announced our $17m Series A led by a16z!
Founders: Advith Chelikani, Robert Eng, and Marty Kausas
Team: Currently ~33 and growing!
