Senior User Experience Designer

Axle Health builds AI scheduling and workforce management software to empower in-home healthcare providers to deliver exceptional, personalized care right where patients feel most comfortable—at home.

Some of the biggest providers in the country use our software (like Cityblock Health and U Penn Health System) to improve the utilization of their field teams by 17%+, and automate the operational burden of scheduling and dispatching.

Our platform includes proprietary logistics algorithms to optimize scheduling, a mobile app for field staff, an operations dashboard for office teams, engagement and booking tools for patients, and a wide range of integrations and external APIs for modular access.

We’re a team of top-tier engineers and operators, backed by $14m from top investors such as Y Combinator, Pear VC, and F-Prime, applying our intellect and logistics experience to upend how home healthcare is delivered.

Axle Health is building the operating system for home-based care, helping healthcare organizations schedule, route, and manage their clinical workforce more effectively. As our Senior User Experience Designer, you'll be the design function's engine on the product team, reporting to our Head of Product, and owning the full arc of user experience from research and discovery through execution and post-launch iteration. This role sits at the intersection of user insight, product strategy, and engineering, making design a visible driver of both product quality and business outcomes.

The work here is fast paced, hands-on, and high ownership. You won't be handed a playbook or a mature design system, and you'll design for users in a domain where the stakes are real and the workflows are genuinely complex. Embedded in the product team alongside product managers, you'll work directly with engineers and clinical operations stakeholders, leading research, shaping product direction, and building the systems and processes that make great design repeatable across web and mobile. If that kind of cross-functional, building from first principles challenge is what energizes you, this role is built for it.

You've done this before. You have a portfolio that demonstrates end-to-end design ownership, not just polished screens, and you can walk through the decisions that shaped your work, including the ones that didn't survive contact with users or engineering constraints. You've shipped to real users, measured what happened, and iterated quickly.
