Note on applying:
A cover letter is not required; not having one will not disqualify you.
The interview process includes a discussion of your portfolio and 2 design exercises. The first design exercise involves a 10-minute presentation in which you critique a product of your choice and then answer questions about it – you will prepare this ahead of time. The second design exercise is a 1-hour live design exercise in which you work with a PM to solve a design problem using a combination of Figma/Figjam – no preparation is required and the design problem will not be related to any UpMetrics projects. We're trying to strike a balance between using these exercises to help find the strongest candidate and keeping how much time you spend on them to a minimum.

Research shows that while men apply to jobs when they meet an average of 60% of the criteria, women and underrepresented individuals only apply when they meet 100% of them. We believe that people of color, people from working class backgrounds, women, and LGBTQ people must be centered in the work we do. Hence, we strongly encourage applications from people with these identities, or who are members of other marginalized communities. If you think you have what it takes, possess transferable skills, are quick to learn, but don't necessarily satisfy every requirement or meet every qualification, we would still love to hear from you!
