## Job description

## About Orchard

Orchard’s mission is to make home buying and selling, stress free, fair and simple. For the average American, the home purchase and sale process takes months, creates anxiety, and is filled with uncertainty and hassle. Orchard has reimagined the end-to-end experience of buying and selling, from innovative home search tools to find the perfect home to the ability to buy a new home before selling your current one. Orchard customers manage the entire experience through a personalized online dashboard, while also getting the support of best-in-class Orchard real estate agents.

Headquartered in New York City with teammates across the US, Orchard has 150+ full time employees and 600+ real estate agents. We have financing from top-tier investors including Revolution Growth, Firstmark, Accomplice, Navitas and Juxtapose, who have also backed the likes of Pinterest, AirBnb, Shopify and Sweetgreen. We're proud to have been recognized by Crain's, Inc. 5000, Glassdoor, Parity.org and Built In on their lists of best places to work.

## About the Role

Orchard is seeking a Product Designer to reduce the complexity of a real estate transaction for the agents who run it. You will design the products that help an agent identify the right Orchard products for a customer and present them well, and the products that help an agent manage a pipeline and move to the next right task to close more deals.

You will prototype in AI design systems, not just in Figma. Work starts with the user, and a working flow built in Claude, Codex, or Cursor can be in front of a real agent within days. Figma comes in for systems and polish. You will have direct access to our data and direct access to agents, so you can check an assumption yourself rather than waiting for someone to answer it.

This is a full-time role based out of our growing NYC office (hybrid-schedule), reporting to our Lead Product Designer, who will give you regular feedback on your craft and hand off increasing ownership as you build context on agents, customers and the transaction.

## What You’ll Do Here

- Design agent-facing features end to end: Partner with product, engineering, and the Lead Product Designer to explore solutions and ship improvements. Stay involved through launch and iteration.
- Design for the next action: Help agents see, across a pipeline of live deals, what needs to happen next and why.
- Prototype using AI tools: Build working flows in Claude, Codex, or Cursor while guiding structure, behavior, and UX quality. Partner with engineers on what moves into the product.
- Learn directly from agents: Sit in on listening sessions and then run your own conversations and quick tests, and adjust direction from what you learn. Treat research as a velocity tool.
- Bring work into Figma: Translate validated concepts and workflows into Figma for production readiness
- Keep the default path simple for agents and customers while the complexity of a real estate transaction lives under the hood.

We’d Love to Hear From You if You Have:

- 1 to 3 years designing digital products
- Interest in internal tools, B2B, or other workflow-heavy systems
- Active use of tools such as Claude, Codex, or Cursor in your design workflow
- A portfolio that shows strong customer empathy, clear product thinking, and craft, including how you got to the answer and not only the final screens
- Curiosity about how design decisions show up in the data, and willingness to look at the data yourself
- You take feedback well, ask questions early, and are comfortable saying when you are stuck
- Strong written communication

The pay range for this position in New York City is $100K–$120K. The actual base pay offered may vary within the range provided depending on job-related knowledge, skills, and experience. Stock options and other incentive pay may be provided as part of the compensation package, in addition to a full range of medical, financial, and/or other benefits, depending on the position offered. This information is provided per the New York City Human Rights Law. Please note that the range provided is applicable only to New York City-based applicants. Orchard is proud to be an equal opportunity employer. We provide employment opportunities without regard to age, race, color, ancestry, national origin, religion, disability, sex, gender identity or expression, sexual orientation, veteran status, or any other protected status in accordance with applicable law.
