Description

WealthCounsel brings together drafting software and legal tools, educators, support staff, and a collegial community to cultivate the growth and success of member attorneys and their clients. We are seeking a motivated and driven Junior Product Designer to join our team. Job Summary: The Junior Product Designer is a foundational member of WealthCounsel's product design team, responsible for designing clear, well-crafted experiences across software products. Working within the Discovery Trio alongside Product Managers and Engineers, you contribute to the full design process — from research and discovery through design specifications and implementation support. You bring curiosity, growing user empathy, and a commitment to craft, taking increasing ownership of features and product areas as you develop. This role focuses less on producing visual artifacts and more on learning to think like a product designer: understanding user needs, framing problems clearly, and making capabilities accessible and intuitive. Responsibilities include applying structured problem framing; participating in discovery sessions; creating wireframes, prototypes, and design documentation; learning to distinguish user requests from user needs; designing interaction flows, interface layouts, and components aligned to the design system; accounting for all product states (happy paths, error, empty, loading, edge cases) and fluid viewports; participating in user research activities; reviewing support tickets and feature requests to identify patterns; learning the product area and workflows; collaborating with engineering on implementation feasibility; reviewing release notes and change logs; participating in design reviews and sprint planning; incorporating critique feedback; and communicating design rationale to PMs and Engineers. Required Qualifications: 0–3 years of experience in product design/UX design or related role; portfolio demonstrating user-centered thinking and interaction design craft; proficiency in Figma (or equivalent design/prototyping tools); familiarity with UX research methods and willingness to participate; attention to detail and commitment to design quality; curiosity about how products work. Preferred Qualifications: Experience in agile/scrum environment; experience with design systems and component-based workflows; familiarity with accessibility best practices (WCAG); experience working with product management teams; understanding HTML and CSS sufficient to collaborate with front-end developers. Work Environment & Benefits: Virtual, full-time; work remotely from your home office; occasional travel may be required for meetings, trade shows, and training. Includes medical/dental/vision, matching 401(k), paid time off package (PTO, holidays incl. 2 floating holidays, volunteer time, blood donor leave, short-term disability, paid parental leave, and more), matching donations for approved charities, home internet reimbursement, and gym membership reimbursement. Application instructions mention including a portfolio link with your resume and tagging RMTM4LjIwMS4xMjYuMTgx and the word MEMORABLE when applying.
