About Buckstop Industries

Founded in 2025, Buckstop is building the intelligence layer for the circular economy. Our mission is to create a sustainable end-of-life for every electronic device on Earth, transforming yesterday's waste into tomorrow's resources.

We're reimagining how enterprises manage electronic assets by creating a platform that identifies, tracks, and maximizes the residual value of devices at scale. In a fragmented industry where value is lost through layers of intermediaries, Buckstop provides a single source of truth and execution.

Our founding team brings together leaders from manufacturing, logistics, reverse supply chains, energy, mining, and technology who have experienced the industry's challenges firsthand and are building the future of asset recovery and circular commerce.

Your assets. One platform. Maximum value. Full stop.

The Opportunity

Buckstop is looking for a highly talented Founding Product Designer to help shape the user experience, workflows, and visual direction of our platform.

This is not a role for someone who simply executes mockups.

We are looking for a designer who can evaluate what has already been built, understand the business and customer requirements, identify opportunities for improvement, and present thoughtful design solutions.

You will work directly with the founders, engineers, and customers to create intuitive workflows and enterprise-grade user experiences that make complex data and operational processes easy to understand and act upon.

The ideal candidate combines strong visual design skills with strategic product thinking and can confidently say:

"Here's what you've built, here's what's working, here's what isn't, and here are three approaches I'd recommend moving forward."

Product & UX Strategy

Evaluate existing product experiences and identify usability improvements
Translate business requirements into intuitive user workflows
Create multiple design concepts and recommendations for key product initiatives

Product Design & Systems

4+ years of experience in Product Design, UI/UX Design, or User Experience roles
Strong portfolio demonstrating end-to-end product design work

Experience in startup or early-stage environments

Who You Are

You have exceptional design instincts and attention to detail
You care deeply about both usability and visual quality
You are comfortable presenting multiple solutions to a problem
You think strategically rather than simply executing requests
You enjoy working directly with founders and engineers
You thrive in ambiguity and can create structure where none exists
You take ownership and operate with a builder mentality

Why Buckstop

Founding-team level influence on product direction
Direct collaboration with founders and engineering leadership
Opportunity to define the design language of an emerging category leader
Significant ownership and visibility across the company
Work on meaningful sustainability and circular economy challenges
Potential pathway into a long-term Product Design leadership role as the company scales
