## About the role

Gusto’s looking to bring on several Staff Product Designers across our Money and HR Experience product organizations. These teams sit on some of the highest-stakes, most AI-native surfaces at Gusto, where small businesses make financial and people decisions that carry real impact, and where getting the experience right is what builds durable trust. That's exactly why judgment, taste, and craft matter here. Found on 1752vc Careers, the job board for startup and VC roles.

## What they're looking for

- 6+ years of product design experience owning and shipping end-to-end work, ideally in B2B SaaS, fintech, or another high-trust domain, with strong craft across web
- Experience designing AI-enabled or conversational experiences shipped to real users, and you can speak concretely to how you handled uncertainty, errors, and human override
- Comfort with ambiguity and 0→1, you frame the problem, scope the work, and move forward without waiting for perfect information
- Strong systems thinking, you use and contribute to a design system and know when to evolve it
- Judgment to evaluate and direct AI outputs, when to use them, when to override them, and how to raise the bar, especially where the cost of being wrong is high
- Strong collaboration and communication across design, product, engineering, and data
