Full Stack Developer

Design at Make the Dot

What You’ll Work On

• Reimagine design workflows. Turn traditional workflows into seamless, intuitive experiences powered by AI.
• Shape the end-to-end product experience. From onboarding new users to supporting seasoned professionals, craft interactions that inspire and delight.
• Craft different design artifacts. Craft every detail of new product features, from idea to design to pixel-perfect execution to marketing
• Develop a visual identity. Define the visual language and interaction patterns that embody the creativity of the fashion world.
• Prototype innovative features. Rapidly test new ideas for collaborative canvases, fabric sourcing, and 3D visualization.
• Develop and Scale the Design System. Manage and continuously improve Make the Dot’s design system to ensure consistency across the product, enhance design efficiency, and streamline the handoff process to engineering.

Early Challenges You’ll Tackle

1. Bridging the end-to-end design workflow. Designers need to move fluidly between sketches, mood boards, and photorealistic 3D renders. How can we make this seamless while supporting designers in creating production-ready specifications for complex garments?
2. Cross-team collaboration. Fashion design is just like software design - many cross-functional teams need to work together to bring a product to market. How can we support the merchandising, design, and production teams to collaborate so no one needs to work overtime anymore?
3. Onboarding for busy designers. Most designers learn by doing. How can we create an intuitive onboarding experience that gets users hooked without heavy tutorials?

What We’re Looking For

• 4+ years of experience designing intuitive, user-facing products.
• Experience shipping 0→1 products with exceptional visual and interaction design.
• A strong understanding of workflows for creative or prosumer products.
• Passion for solving complex problems with simple, elegant solutions.
• Interest in or prior exposure to design patterns for AI-assisted workflows.
• Ability to work fast and iteratively without compromising quality.
• Proficient in Figma

Team and Funding

• Emilie Ho, Co-founder & CEO. Former product design leader in fashion supply chain, experienced in 3D design, sourcing, and quality control.
• Jeremiah Mark, Co-founder & CTO. Single-handedly built the entire Make the Dot product, which is currently used by top brands and institutions like DKNY, FIT, and SCAD. Track record also includes building large scale products at Sky Media and the Ministry of Justice in the UK.
• Theren Moodley, Co-founder & Chief Growth Officer. Revenue leader in supply chain SaaS for global brands.
• Andrew Pickles, Co-founder & COO. Expert in supply chain and logistics. Previous Chief of Staff at the logistics SaaS used by the world’s biggest 3PLs.

• Backed by investors like 500 Global and Sassafras Investments and industry leaders from the fashion and tech sectors, including the Board Member of American Eagle.

Compensation

• Base Salary: $150k–$200k/year
• Equity: Meaningful early-stage equity
• Benefits: Health, dental, and vision insurance
