Job Description

Help reinvent how housing gets designed, permitted, and built in America. Cedar is building the operating system for urban housing delivery. We combine architectural expertise with software, automation, and data systems to dramatically accelerate how projects move from land acquisition to approved designs and construction. The result: faster timelines, higher quality, lower risk, and more housing in the cities that need it most. Our team blends architects, engineers, and product builders. We design beautiful, responsive housing — and we build the software systems that make great architecture scalable. The Role We’re looking for a Product Designer to help shape the Cedar platform. The problems we’re tackling are messy and real: evaluating development sites, navigating zoning constraints, designing buildings, and turning those decisions into real projects that get built. These workflows are currently handled through a mix of spreadsheets, PDFs, GIS tools, and architectural software. Your job is to turn that complexity into software that feels clear, powerful, and intuitive. You’ll work closely with engineers, product leaders, and architects to design new tools from the ground up — exploring ideas, prototyping quickly, and helping ship features that people use every day. You’ll also help establish the design system and product language that keeps Cedar’s platform consistent as it grows. This is a chance to shape the foundation of a product that will evolve across many tools and workflows over time. If you enjoy designing systems, untangling complicated workflows, and building products that solve real-world problems, you’ll have a lot of room to do great work here. What You'll Work On Designing product experiences across Cedar’s platform Turning complex workflows into clear UX flows and interactions Creating wireframes, prototypes, and polished UI designs Working closely with engineers to take features from idea to shipped product Developing and owning Cedar’s design system — components, patterns, and interaction standards Establishing consistent UX patterns across the platform Prototyping new ideas quickly and testing them with real users Improving workflows used by architects, developers, and planners every day What We're Looking For Experience designing digital products (SaaS or complex tools is a plus) Strong UX thinking and product instincts Excellent visual and interaction design skills Comfort working closely with engineers and product managers Experience designing in tools like Figma Attention to detail and a strong sense of craft Someone who enjoys working in a fast-moving startup environment Location Austin, TX or San Diego, CA (in office).
