Senior Product Designer

Hi, I’m Nick, cofounder and Chief Product Officer at MedMe Health. At MedMe, we are passionate about empowering pharmacists to provide services beyond prescribing for patients in the community. Our mission is to build an all-in-one cloud-based platform that empowers pharmacists to schedule, document, and manage clinical services at scale. We help pharmacies transform into community health hubs.

We are building software for an industry that has relied on pen and paper throughout its history. This is why crafting, building, and constantly improving the end-to-end customer experience is essential. It’s crucial that we listen deeply to the diverse needs of our pharmacies which could be located anywhere from dense urban jungles to small remote communities. We design and build for their needs to ultimately provide more proactive and sustainable care for the patients in their communities.

MedMe has the two largest pharmacy chains in Canada as clients; we are servicing over 3500 pharmacies, and we've powered over 14 million patient services. We played a critical role across the country throughout the pandemic in getting the larger population vaccinated. MedMe’s ultimate vision is to transform pharmacies from today’s dispensing locations to tomorrow’s health hubs.

MedMe has raised over $3.7M USD including from M12 (Microsoft’s Venture Fund), MaRS IAF, and Y-Combinator.

Our culture is defined by our core values—RICE: Rigorous, Impactful, Caring, and Elegant. We encourage curiosity and autonomy, focus on transformative impact in healthcare, champion open communication and collaboration, and strive for excellence through simplicity.

Join our supportive and empowering team in our mission to reshape healthcare through innovation and creativity.

We are an equal opportunity employer, welcoming applicants from diverse backgrounds to apply.

The Opportunity

You'll be working directly with Ramin, Head of Product, and collaborating with our wider product development team (including other product managers and engineers). You will also have the opportunity to work and collaborate with the co-founders directly with this role as the main designer at MedMe.

We have broken down the responsibilities into 3 different viewpoints:

0 ft - Execution/Individual Contributor-based work (70%)

• Translate complex product requirements into easy-to-use designs for our end-users, ensuring our software is user-friendly and adheres to high quality and accessibility standards.
• Design and prototype user interfaces, user workflows, sitemaps, personas, interaction models, and visual design elements for web across all devices/browsers for pharmacy users and patients
• Work closely with engineers and product managers to oversee the development, testing, and implementation of your design ideas.
• Apply and contribute to our design system, ensuring a consistent user experience across all products.
• Be the voice of the user - conduct user research, data-informed analysis, and stakeholder interviews to fully understand customer needs, pains, and behaviours to continually optimize for an improved user experience
• Conduct regular design reviews and iterate on feedback from team members and users.
• Stay abreast of the latest design trends, competitor UI designs, and product enhancements to ensure our product maintains its edge.

10,000 ft - Design culture and strategy (35%)

• Help foster an atmosphere of creativity and innovation across teams/departments.
• Facilitate collaboration between the design team and other departments (such as product management, engineering, and marketing) to ensure a holistic product development process such as design reviews, design hand-offs, etc.
• Influence product strategy by bringing user-focused design considerations to the table, collaborating with the voice of the customer program and help promote a design-centric culture within the company.

What you bring to the table

You will thrive at MedMe if you:

• Are extremely organized, can juggle multiple projects at the same time, but can go deep on a single project if necessary
• Have a successful track record of generating design ideas required to solve problems, and taking ownership of the design process, including research, testing, cross-functional communication, copywriting and visual design. Please include a link to your portfolio in your application.
• Love to have ownership of the end-to-end product design process and work independently on a small team where you will have a lot of impact.
• Have experience working closely with a development team using agile practices to produce real-world products as you would be doing at MedMe
• Have experience with tools like Figma to produce low/high-fidelity mock-ups and share designs with stakeholders
• Are passionate about design excellence and familiar with latest UI components/trends, yet flexible enough to modify designs based on timelines/complexity
• Are interested in or have experience working for a healthcare startup where security, reliability, and ease-of-use is the highest priority
• Have communication and team working skills- you enjoy suggesting ideas, collaborating internally and externally, providing and receiving feedback, and supporting teammates
• And last but certainly not least - you have a sizeable appetite for learning and self-development, even if you don't have all of the above requirements, MedMe is a place where you can learn and grow.
