Lead Product Designer
Job Summary
Were a scrappy fast-growing SaaS team that clawed our way to $32M ARR without ever taking a dime of outside money. We build marketing tools that actually do the work instead of just sitting there looking busy in a dashboard. We move fast we laugh a lot (sometimes at ourselves) and we genuinely care about the humans we bring on board. If that sounds like your kind of chaos keep reading.
Search Atlas is at an exciting inflection point. Were rebuilding and scaling our product experience and we need someone who can shape what that looks like from the ground up.
