About Blank Street

Blank Street is on a mission to become the defining food & beverage brand of our generation. At 100+ locations, we’ve built one of the fastest-growing consumer brands in the US and UK, and are quickly becoming the go-to spot for the next generation of coffee and matcha drinkers. With a large global roadmap ahead, we’re shaping the future through elevated beverages, thoughtful store designs, and hospitality-driven experiences.

Add a Spark to the Ordinary

At Blank Street, we’re building thoughtful, beautifully designed experiences, both in-store and digitally. We're looking for a Senior Product Designer to join our Product Design team to help drive exciting initiatives. As a Senior Product Designer, you will own the design of our consumer app and internal tools, combining user research, a strategic mindset, and design skills across both UX and Visual to deliver stellar customer experiences. You are not only a craft expert across UX and visual design, but also a strategic partner who helps shape what we build and why.

You bring a strong point of view grounded in research and data, and you are comfortable navigating ambiguity to define product direction. You translate insights into actionable design strategies, aligning user needs with business goals. You advocate for the customer at every stage, ensuring that design decisions are intentional, scalable, and impactful. This role is fully in-person and based out of our Brooklyn, NY office.

Internal Tools Design

Serve as a steward of the team’s design system, ensuring consistency, quality, and scalability across platforms while sharing ownership with the broader team

Explore and integrate AI-driven opportunities into the product experience where relevant

Requirements:

5-7 years of experience minimum in a product design, user experience, or equivalent role, with demonstrated leadership on complex digital products

Strong foundation in user research methodologies (qualitative and quantitative), including user interviews, usability testing, journey mapping, and synthesis of insights into product direction

Experienced, innovative and forward-thinking designer who can demonstrate leadership of medium-scale projects from concept to completion - research, approach, design strategy, systems, and implementation

Experience contributing to and evolving design systems and tokens in partnership with engineers.

Experience working with generative AI, personalization systems, or recommendation engines

Proven interpersonal skills, stakeholder relation skills, and ability to work in a team environment

Strong storytelling with excellent verbal, written and visual communication skills
