<div><div style="padding: 0; margin: 15px 0 15px 0">Description About Aurora Solar Aurora is on a mission to create a future of solar for all. Our award-winning software puts the power of data and technology into the hands of every solar professional to make solar adoption simple and predictable. Our software has designed millions of solar projects so far, empowering solar companies to sell, design, and install residential and commercial solar arrays accurately, seamlessly, and at scale. We are a remote-first collaborative team of sustainable energy enthusiasts who love what we do. We’ve been named one of "The Best Mid-Sized Remote Companies To Work for in 2024" by <a href="https://builtin.com/company/aurora-solar" rel="nofollow"> BuiltIn.com </a> and have been recognized for the second time as a Certified Green Business (CGB) with the city of San Francisco. We’re in this together to support the world’s transition to solar. About the Team Aurora’s design team is composed of a mix of fields, including content strategy, product design, and UX research — all inspired to solve complex systems-level problems for residential and commercial solar. Our team embodies a strong collaborative ethos as we partner with engineering and product peers from discovery to delivery. We value a customer-first mentality, iterative exploration, and peer design critiques to elevate the quality of our work while supporting strategic business priorities. About the Role We are looking for a Senior Product Designer to drive product design on one of the teams for Aurora’s HelioScope product. HelioScope is a cloud-based design and engineering platform which lowers the cost and increases the accuracy of commercial, industrial, and utility-scale solar projects. HelioScope powers our customers through the design and engineering process for tens of thousands of large-scale solar projects around the world every month. Think Costco with thousands of panels across millions of square feet of their rooftops, or a large solar array in the desert, with all the complexities therein, with massive project management as well — IA & navigation, data visualization, nested workflows, custom reports and proposals, searchable files, partner integrations, user permissions management, and much more. We need an experienced systems thinker with a dedication to rapid, iterative, executional UX/UI craft who enjoys pairing with product management, engineering, and other designers to define intuitive, innovative experiences for commercial solar.
