About the job
About KiwiCo:
KiwiCo is an innovative eCommerce company dedicated to sparking creativity and curiosity in kids (and kids at heart!). Through both online and offline materials, we provide fun and engaging ways for kids to explore, create, and learn. Our primary offering is a subscription service where we deliver "whoa awesome," hands-on projects to kids. We also manage an e-commerce storefront and a content platform to inspire and educate. We take great pride and ownership in the products we build and in the community of parents and kids we serve.
Our office is located in Mountain View, CA within walking distance to the Caltrain station. This position follows a hybrid work schedule, with 3-4 office days per week (depending on your team) and the remainder of the week working remotely.
About the Job:
We’re looking for a designer to join our Product Design team to help us develop compelling products and experiences for kids and families, from the moment of unboxing to fun and engaging play. As a Product Designer with an industrial design or toy design background, you are responsible for ideating and concepting new products that expand the KiwiCo product assortment by leveraging new play patterns, materials and price points to appeal to a large audience. You are an independent go-getter, with strong mechanical intuition, ability to make things both fun and functional, and a passion for user testing. You are experienced in form-giving and in applying brand and visual design guidelines to products that capture the imaginations of kids and adults at a glance.
In this role, you’ll be responsible for leading your own projects, from conception through to a finished product. This includes brainstorming, prototyping, pitching, refining, testing, preparing product specs and sampling. While you will work on your own projects, you’ll have an opportunity to collaborate and get support from the whole Product Design team.
