Senior Product Designer
About Waymark Waymark is a mission-driven team of healthcare providers, technologists, and builders working to transform care for people with Medicaid benefits. We partner with communities to deliver technology-enabled, human-centered support that helps patients stay healthy and thrive. We’re designing tools and systems that bring care directly to those who need it most—removing barriers and reimagining what’s possible in Medicaid healthcare delivery. Our ValuesAt Waymark, our values are the foundation of how we work, grow, and support one another: Bold Builders: We tackle the toughest challenges in care delivery by harnessing the power of community and technology. Humble Learners: We seek feedback, embrace diverse perspectives, and welcome challenges to our assumptions. Experiment to Improve: We use data to inform decisions and continuously assess our performance. Focused Urgency: Our mission drives us to act swiftly and relentlessly in pursuit of meaningful results. If this resonates with you, we invite you to bring your creativity, energy, and curiosity to Waymark. About this role We're seeking a talented Product Designer to join our growing team and help shape technology that directly improves healthcare outcomes for underserved communities. As our second designer, you will report to our Head of Product, and will work closely with our product management team, engineering team, and current product designer to create user experiences that make healthcare more accessible and effective for Medicaid patients. You'll be designing for community-based care teams who often face challenges from inadequate technology support. Our approach of 'participatory design' differs from traditional healthcare software that focuses on billing and administrative coding requirements. Instead, you'll create solutions that amplify the impact of hyperlocal programs and eliminate manual labor that contributes to care team burnout.
