<div><span style="font-size:24px;">About Us</span></div><div><span style="font-size:16px;">Our mission is to electrify the world’s homes for healthy and sustainable living. Residential electrification is an extraordinary decarbonization opportunity - 145 million homes in the United States account for 20% of our climate emissions. But today electrification is painful - it’s too complicated, time consuming, and expensive. So we’re building a new experience for homeowners, contractors, and utilities. Zero bridges the gap between the digital and the physical with a friction-less experience that makes electrification fast, easy, and affordable. Join our team to build a world class consumer experience that just so happens to electrify America. </span></div><div><br></div><div><span style="font-size:24px;">About the Role &amp; Your Impact </span></div><div><span style="font-size:16px;">You will be the first Lead Product Designer to join our early stage team of talented designers, engineers, and seasoned climate tech leaders. The Lead role is a senior individual contributor that also manages a team of 3 designers, and reports to our Head of Product and Engineering. At Zero, designers are generalists - they own product management, UX, and UI. In particular, the Lead Product Designers will collaborate extensively with the leadership team, helping to transform early ideas and business opportunities into a cogent product vision and roadmap. And because everyone on the team is a builder, Lead Product Designers also build early prototypes and initial releases that will bring new products and features to life. We primarily use Figma, but designers are increasingly working with vibe coded prototypes and UI source code. </span></div><div><br></div><div><span style="font-size:16px;">Some examples of products that you will support include the redesign of our mobile app for homeowners to scan their home, as well as a new mobile app for contractors. You will also oversee the evolution of our new web site, a web based design tool for HVAC systems, and various B2B web productivity tools for contractors and utilities. You will be given broad latitude to make product level decisions and expected to operate effectively with minimal oversight.</span></div><div><span style="font-size:16px;"> </span></div><div><span style="font-size:24px;">What You Bring</span></div><div><span style="font-size:16px;">You are a generalist with exceptional taste for design. Whether it’s researching user needs, brainstorming concepts, testing prototypes, or building features, you want to own projects from beginning to end. You are comfortable working with sticky notes, whiteboard markers, Figma, and front-end code (HTML/CSS/JS). </span></div><div><br></div><div><span style="font-size:16px;">You are a detail oriented systems thinker. You want to own the whole product, not just isolated features. You always anchor your work on user needs, and are excited to meet users where they work, whether in the office or in the field. You may not have experience in climate tech or building science, but you are eager to dive into the messy world of residential electrification.</span></div><div><br></div><div><span style="font-size:16px;">You have an eye for elegance - the confluence of beauty, effectiveness, and simplicity - and you have a proven track record of building elegant digital experiences. You value functional beauty in the physical world, and you are excited to build a product that will create healthy, comfortable, and sustainable living spaces for our customers.</span></div><div><span style="font-size:16px;">You are a pragmatic team player and leader. You know that products only matter if they ship. You are eager to collaborate with leaders, designers and engineers across Zero, as well as customers in the field. You know that hard decisions and tough tradeoffs are required to deliver projects within a fixed time box. You want lots of freedom, but you know that comes with the responsibility to communicate and deliver.</span></div><div><br></div><div><span style="font-size:16px;">You are enthusiastic about in-person work. You love engaging in healthy debates with teammates and converging on solutions in real time through whiteboard sessions and collaborative workshops.
