Founding Product Designer

We’re looking for a strong, generalist Product Designer to join our small, speedy, and mission-driven team.

As a member of our founding team and Toko’s first full-time design hire, you’ll have an outsized equity stake in the company, significantly impact a first-of-its-kind AI-driven product, and play a pivotal role in building a fun, diverse, and inclusive team culture.

We’re looking for someone who ideally speaks Chinese to serve our primary market, Taiwan.

To apply, please send us a link to your portfolio.

💻 What you'll do

• Take end-to-end ownership of the design process: seeing a new feature through from user research, to synthesizing user pain points, to finalized designs.
• Translate user pain points, ideas, and sketches into high fidelity mobile mocks and wireframes ready to be built by engineers
• Work closely with founders to design and prioritize new features
• Improve discoverability of existing features by designing new UI layouts and UX flows
• Support a variety of misc. design work across product, growth, and admin
  
  

😄 Who you are

• You enjoy being scrappy and moving quickly
• You thrive when working as the only designer in a small team (we're a team of 6!)
• You have strong English and Chinese communication skills (we conduct user interviews in Chinese!)
• You have 3 years of industry experience, some of which (if not most/all) is mobile-first consumer
• You would consider yourself a generalist, with UI/UX design one of your strengths

• You’re excited about designing for totally new, AI-driven experiences
• You have experience working with designing or using consumer products in Taiwan, Hong Kong, Korea, or Japan
