What are the responsibilities and job description for the Founding Designer position at Trata (YC W25)?
We’re hiring a Founding Product Designer or a Founding Design Engineer! Our website (trytrata.com) gets compliments every week from our users. I love design majors who view their work as art. Taste is key. Design is extremely important at Trata. You will have extreme ownership. You will work closely with me as I love to get in the weeds on this. We must get along.
Please send me or include a link to your portfolio/samples of work that you’re proud of. “Work Experience” comes second for this role. Taste cannot be taught. We value the thought process behind your design.
Trata (YC W25) is backed by a VC with a higher unicorn rate than Y Combinator and Sequoia Capital, Walter Kortschak (prev. CIO of SignalFire and Managing Partner at Summit Partners), Y Combinator, later-stage founders backed by some of the best VCs (Sequoia Capital, Founders Fund, Andreessen Horowitz, Accel, Bain Capital Ventures (BCV), First Round Capital, Y Combinator), Pioneer Fund, Seaplane Ventures and 10 hedge funds.
Perks:
1. Higher total compensation than 95% of seed-stage engineer roles
2. Work out of a luxury hacker apartment with a water view (no dress code, no office BS)
3. Expensed meals
4. If you are interested in entrepreneurship later on, I am happy to introduce you to the investors you need to know. I am happy to personally push your application to Y Combinator
5. Health, dental and vision coverage
