Ranges labelled with commission, on-target earnings, total compensation, bonuses, equity, net pay or other qualifying terms are excluded.

Instrumentl
We are hiring a Staff Product Designer reporting to the Head of Design. You'll own GrantOS, the foundational layer every other product area at Instrumentl sits on top of: Platform (the data layer, MCP, BI), Core (Tracker, Tasks, Reports, Integrations), and the enterprise surfaces that connect them. This is the seat where you define how grant professionals experience Instrumentl as a system rather than a set of features, which means the data models, permissions, and interaction patterns you set get inherited by every designer and every pod after you. Much of this area is still being invented, so you will be defining problems rather than receiving specs.
