About Tandem

The way office space works and the industry behind it is getting completely flipped on its head right now. We are in the middle of a MAJOR disruption driven by two things:

  1. Over 50% of office space is currently sitting empty in US cities.
  2. Hybrid and remote work are here to stay. The five-days-in-the-office workweek is going away forever for many, many, many jobs.

Tandem is a marketplace tech company solving these problems by enabling the next generation of office space. Check us at out tandem.space - you’ll see hundreds of spaces on our marketplace. We match, service and enable companies every day to find their perfect office space, and we’re just getting started.

We’re a small, experienced team - currently we have 13 full time employees. Tandem has an all-star founding team, and you would work directly with the co-founders, who previously worked at Google and Bain & Company.

What we’re looking for

DESIGN SKILLS - You must have the design chops to bring ideas to life:

  • 3-8 years of UX design experience required, ideally including experience at an early-stage startup.
  • Figma experience required - this will be your main tool day-to-day.
  • You should be able to design beautiful, intuitive web interfaces! Experience building both desktop and web interfaces is a must, including interaction design.
  • Experience with marketplaces is a plus.

OWNERSHIP / CHARACTER - We are all owners:

  • We are all owners at Tandem, no one is a ticket-taker - we’re looking for a go-getter with extreme levels of ownership and an A+ positive / get-shit-done attitude

  • Team player who takes responsibility, is proactive and has extremely strong communication skills

About the Role

What you’ll be doing: You’ll be designing web interfaces, both mobile and desktop, for the Tandem marketplace! This includes both marketing/landing pages and logged-in user experiences, with the emphasis on logged-in interaction design. Expect to be working alongside Tandem’s engineering and sales leaders to bring ideas to life, redesigning existing pages, turning ideas into designs, etc. This will include working cross-functionally with sales & operations and may also include customer research.

Location - SF

You would be primarily working out of our office in San Francisco (we’re in SoMa, near the Giant’s stadium). We’re a hybrid company and ask everyone to come in 3 days per week, but much of the team is there every day.
