About Design at Gusto: Product Design at Gusto is made up of over 80 people who work cross-functionally across Design, Research, Writing, Ops and Front-end Development. We partner closely with Product, Engineering, Data, and Marketing to design, build and ship experiences that matter. We are advocates for thoughtful, crafted, and inclusive experiences and believe great design can make hard things possible, even delightful. About the Role We’re looking for a product designer to join our Time Tools team, a key area of growth for Gusto. As a core design contributor, you’ll partner with PM, Engineering, and Data peers to shape high-priority initiatives and design experiences that help small business owners and their employees manage time with confidence and ease.

You’ll collaborate with other designers, contribute to our design system, and help elevate the craft quality of our product. Team and Product Area Time and Attendance is our flagship add-on designed to complement Gusto Payroll. The team’s scope includes: Time tracking: employees log hours via web, app, or kiosk, supporting remote and flextime work. Scheduling: create and manage employee schedules, accommodating shifts and swaps. Time off policies and requests: automate time off management with complex PTO policies and labor-law compliance. PTO balances: track time off and sync with payroll and calendars. Project tracking: track time spent on tasks and analyze progress. Responsibilities
Translate customer insights into scalable workflows for scheduling, attendance, and compliance. Design and refine multi-surface experiences (web, mobile, kiosk) for managers and employees. Partner with PM, Engineering, and Data to define problems, set priorities, and deliver value. Champion and evolve the design system to improve platform cohesion. Balance long-term vision with near-term execution, navigating ambiguity and evolving customer needs. Provide thoughtful critique and mentorship to peers to elevate craft quality. Qualifications
Experience: 8+ years in product design. Product acumen: ability to collaborate with PM and Engineering to shape priorities and roadmaps. Craft excellence: portfolio showing accessible, performant end-to-end product design across web and mobile. Customer empathy: skill at uncovering and translating customer needs for small businesses and hourly workers into design insights. Collaboration and influence: strong communication to align cross-functional partners and drive clarity in complex problems. Nice to Have
Experience designing complex systems or compliance-heavy workflows in SaaS, HR, or productivity tools. Familiarity with AI-driven experiences (AI agents, conversational UI, LLM-powered workflows). Experience scaling products in fast-growth environments with long-term system design. Passion for helping small businesses and their employees thrive. Compensation and Location Cash compensation range for this role is $146,000/yr to $183,000/yr in Denver and most remote locations, and $177,000/yr to $222,000/yr in San Francisco, Seattle & New York. Final offer amounts depend on experience and may vary. Gusto has offices in Denver, San Francisco, and New York City. Employees in those locations are expected to work from the office on designated days (approximately 2-3 days per week). Similar expectations apply to Symmetry roles in Scottsdale. Note: The San Francisco office includes the San Jose metro area. Hybrid work requires a secure, reliable internet connection on non-office days as well.
