Senior Product Designer contract

Higharc is seeking an accomplished Senior Product Designer to help lead the experience design of our groundbreaking homebuilding platform. In this role, you’ll define and craft end-to-end experiences that simplify the complex—and make home design and construction more accessible, efficient, and human.

You’ll work alongside a multidisciplinary team of engineers, architects, and 3D visualization experts to design tools that serve builders, buyers, and everyone involved in bringing homes to life. Your work will have a lasting, real-world impact and play a critical role in shaping the future of the homebuilding industry.

Higharc is a fully remote company. This role is open to candidates based in the continental U.S.

What You’ll Do

• Lead the design of intuitive, scalable user experiences across Higharc’s platform
• Translate complex, detailed workflows into simple, elegant solutions
• Partner closely with homebuilders, suppliers, contractors, and buyers to understand their needs and pain points
• Develop journey maps, user flows, wireframes, and prototypes to explore and validate ideas
• Collaborate across product, engineering, and architecture to bring ideas to life from concept to launch
• Influence the strategic direction of the product by bringing a strong design perspective to every conversation

About You

You have:

• 7+ years of experience designing web-based software with a focus on interaction and UX
• A track record of shipping high-quality, thoughtful product experiences in complex domains
• A strong portfolio that showcases your process, thinking, and ability to simplify complexity
• Deep user empathy and a clear, confident communication style—especially when working with cross-functional teams
• A systems-thinking mindset with the ability to balance detail with big-picture product vision
