We are now looking for a Senior Product Designer to join us as a foundational member of the team. You’ll play a key role in shaping how FeMMA looks, feels, and functions — from early product explorations through launch and beyond.
This is a deeply collaborative and hands-on role where you’ll work closely with our CEO, engineering, and early community to bring FeMMA’s vision to life. You’ll be joining a small, focused team that believes in building intentionally — combining empathy, clarity, and craft to create experiences that truly resonate.
FeMMA is led by Caitlin Hodge (CEO), who has partnered closely with Michael Horvath (co-founder and former CEO of Strava) — our lead investor. Together, they bring deep experience launching successful, mission-driven companies that empower people through community and movement.
What You’ll Do
Design with empathy and intent – Create experiences that feel inclusive, empowering, and intuitive for women in martial arts.
Shape the product from 0 → 1 – Contribute across the design process, from concepting and prototyping to polished UI and implementation.
Prototype to learn – Use low- and high-fidelity tools to explore ideas quickly, test assumptions, and validate solutions.
Design for systems and flow – Help create intuitive, cohesive interactions that make sense across moments and contexts, and scale gracefully as the product evolves.
Collaborate closely with engineering – Be a part of the build process, caring not just about how things look, but how they feel and function.
Stay grounded in user insight – Participate in user testing and feedback loops to ensure design decisions align with real community needs.
Establish design practices – As one of our first design hires, you’ll help define design principles, tools, and shared standards that support good work and healthy collaboration.
