High Standards. No Apologies.
We operate with intensity because our mission demands it. At Eight Sleep, we bring the same mindset as the world’s top performers: focused, relentless, and always pushing to be in the top 1% of our craft. Think Kobe Bryant’s mamba mentality, applied to bold ideas, next-gen tech, and flawless execution. This isn’t a 9-to-5. Our team is deeply committed, often putting in the extra effort – not because we’re told to, but because we’re invested. We’re here to build fast, push limits, and deliver without compromise. If you thrive under pressure and want to do the most meaningful work of your career, you’ll feel right at home. If you’re looking for something easier, this isn’t it.
The role
We’re looking for a product designer who thinks beyond aesthetics. Someone who is as passionate about crafting seamless user experiences as they are about beautiful interfaces. You care deeply about building, shipping, and iterating on real products, not just making polished mockups that never see the light of day.
As a Product Designer on our web team, you’ll play a critical role in shaping the Eight Sleep website, driving the design of engaging, intuitive, and seamless experiences that help users discover and purchase a Pod. You’ll collaborate closely with the Growth, Brand & Marketing, Product and Engineering teams to craft high-quality, data-driven designs that balance aesthetics with usability.
We don’t believe in rigid design silos. At many companies, product design is split into UX, UI, and other sub-disciplines. Here, it’s all in one. You should be an exceptional generalist who can move fluidly between information architecture, visual design, and interaction patterns, with an eye for both pixel perfection and real-world usability. As a key member of our small but growing design team, you’ll have significant ownership over the website experience, ensuring that users are equipped with the resources they need to make informed purchase decisions.
How you’ll contribute
Design: You’ll sit at the intersection of Growth and Product, leading the creation of our e-commerce experience to drive brand positioning and revenue growth. Your responsibilities will encompass the full spectrum of product design, from information architecture and low-fidelity wireframes to high-fidelity mockups, and everything in-between.
Validate: You’ll support our customer discovery team in conducting usability studies and user interviews to inform design work. You’ll use data to inform the success or failure of the design.
Iterate: You’ll combine qualitative and quantitative customer insights to make design decisions that improve our web experience for our members, and move the needle on conversion and retention. We are highly data-informed, so iterating in response to metrics is essential.
Communicate: You’ll present your work, from works in progress to polished prototypes, to stakeholders and executives. You’ll also take ownership of design documentation, ensuring your files are prepped for engineering.
Some other details about the role:
You’ll work as part of an interdisciplinary team to deliver successful experiences that drive business growth and user value
You’ll help build, document, and organize the UI components of our web design system, in collaboration with our web engineering team
You’ll align with stakeholders in our Marketing, Brand, Growth, and Product teams and clearly present design updates to C-suite leadership for feedback and approval
You’ll serve as the subject matter expert responsible for web design patterns and interactions - including researching and staying up-to-date on emerging web and e-commerce design trends and best practices
You’ll collaborate closely with the Engineering and Marketing teams to ship a world class web experience
What you need to succeed
4+ years experience in web/e-commerce UX and UI
A portfolio showcasing high quality, thoughtful UI and UX work, with key web-based projects
You’ve shipped your designs to public users and have data that proves either success or failure
You are able to consider the technical implications of design decisions and have the ability to find the right balance between new user value and technical effort
You are obsessed with simplicity, have a high-quality bar for the aesthetics in your design
You thrive as an independent thinker and can manage the design process from end to end even in open-ended, ambiguous environments
You have a passion for user research, from developing to executing user interviews and testing
You are able and flexible to iterate fast and often
You are confident writing clear agendas and presenting design evolutions to C-Suite leadership
You are excited about the opportunity to build a fast-growing brand into an iconic company
You have a Bachelor’s degree in a related design field or equivalent experience
Bonus points for:
