About Tapstitch

Tapstitch makes it easy to create any piece of quality apparel in minutes. Our mission is to empower everyone to express themselves through clothes.

We are month-on-month profitable and have raised $3 million led by Alpaca Ventures with participation from Creator Ventures. We are a global team based in Palo Alto, LA, and China.

About the Role

We are looking for someone happy to be involved in all parts of the design process and lead the company's design function. You will be a hands on designer and leader. Someone willing to get into the weeds but also able to hire and run the design team as the company grows.

You will initially help outline user journeys and flows, create wireframes based on these, develop a fresh UI, and work with the product team to bring a new website to market. If you are excited about building the world's leading end-to-end custom apparel business and joining a team at the earliest stages, this is the role for you.

• The company's design function and approach

• UX and UI

• Hiring and managing designers

Your Experience

• Proven experience as a product and design owner on technical products, with a strong focus on UX and UI

• Leadership ability

• Proficiency in design tools, especially Figma

• You are happy owning tasks outside of your core competency

• You are a strong communicator and project owner in a fully remote team

• Ability to be action orientated and self motivated

• You can operate in a company with early stage ambiguity

• Familiarity with front-end development and its impact on design implementation

• Have a strong aesthetic and great taste

Benefits:
