Over the last 10 years, Ellevation Education has built a thriving business serving the administrators, teachers, and specialists who support English Learners at public schools across the U.S. Today, over 1,500 school districts use our software to manage their EL programs and drive instructional impact in their district. We are a successful, rapidly growing business with a real mission -- help English Learners achieve their highest aspirations.
Design and user experience are integral aspects of realizing this mission so we are looking for an experienced full-stack Senior Product Designer to help lead design within a core area of our Flagship product. We are currently making a series of major investments and are building powerful tools for educators to better collect, analyze, and aggregate data so that they can take action and communicate decisions to support student progress within the EL program.
This is a hands-on role where you will work with an agile team of Product Managers and Engineers to help shape the product direction, craft experiments, validate ideas, and iterate to deliver best-in-class user experiences that our customers love. The right candidate to join our growing design team can formulate strong informed opinions, work holistically across the UX stack, and find effective ways to impact our business.
Product & Design Culture
We are organized into small cross-functional product teams that focus on key problems to solve in the context of their specific domain. We focus on outcomes over output. Our teams are empowered to research, prototype, and solicit user feedback to validate hypotheses. We engage users early and rapidly iterate so that the end result is a high-confidence, high-value product. We aim to foster an environment where we have the runway to experiment and learn from failure while tackling tricky challenges.
We also celebrate being accountable to outcomes which means signing up to pursue that vision by knocking down obstacles that get in the way. This looks like conducting experiments which throw off learnings, adjusting strategy based on those learnings, and delivering products to end-users that change behavior and drive real value for the business.
