About Us:
is the #1 live shopping platform for rare plants, handmade crafts, & unique goods.

Founded in 2020 by Instagram and Apple veterans, Palmstreet began as a plant identification app and quickly evolved into a trailblazer in live shopping, beginning with plant sellers.

Fueled by a passionate, plant-loving community, we rapidly expanded into new categories to better serve our fast-growing audience.

Our vision is to become the "World's Online Main Street," bringing the charm of in-person shopping to engaging, social online experiences.

Backed by top Silicon Valley VCs and powered by a nimble, empathetic team, we've grown our GMV by 500x in the last 18 months.

As we continue shaping the future of social commerce, we're looking for talented individuals who are excited to grow with us and join our mission.

The Opportunity:

As we continue to grow, we're looking for a Product Designer to own key design areas across both the livestream buyer experience and seller tools.

This person will shape live auction, marketplace interactions, and seller workflows, designing engaging purchasing journeys for buyers while simplifying operational complexity for sellers.

You will work closely with Product Managers and cross-functional partners to deeply understand user needs and deliver thoughtful, scalable solutions that drive growth on both sides of the marketplace.

This is a fully remote position, open to candidates based in the Toronto area. You will report to the Design Lead and collaborate with talented colleagues from around the globe.

Responsibilities:
Lead end-to-end design for core consumer live-stream experiences and seller workflows across mobile and web.
Collaborate closely with Product Management and Engineering to execute roadmap priorities while shaping how problems are framed and solved.
Conduct and synthesize user research independently, translating insights into clear, actionable design solutions.
Proactively explore and apply emerging AI tools to enhance design quality, speed, and product thinking.
Contribute to and evolve Palmstreet's design system to ensure consistency and scalability across the product ecosystem.

Qualifications:
We're looking for a sharp, adaptable product designer who thrives in a fast-moving startup environment.

3+ years of product design experience at a product-focused tech company.
Strong experience designing for web and native mobile products.
A compelling portfolio demonstrating strong product thinking, UX craft, and execution.
Ability to independently run user research, synthesize insights, and translate findings into clear design direction.
High learning velocity and structured thinking — able to quickly master new tools, systems, and problem spaces.
Strong communication skills with the ability to articulate decisions and collaborate cross-functionally.
Comfortable wearing multiple hats and operating in ambiguity.
Naturally stays ahead of AI trends and experiments proactively.

Bonus points for:
Experience designing for marketplace platforms.
Previous experience working at a startup or high-growth environment.
Experience working with a global team.

Your Location:
Remote - Canada (Toronto preferred)

Travel:
Twice a year for team building events; 3-5 days for each event

Compensation (Canada):

Pay Range:
CA$90,000 - CA$130,000

Stock options negotiable

The pay range for this role is determined by job-related factors such as skills, experience, qualifications, work location, and current market data.

Compensation ranges may be modified in the future to adjust for updated market data.

In addition to base salary, the compensation for this role includes:

Health insurance through Manulife:
Silver plan covered for employees
Retirement Savings Plan through Wealthsimple with 4% employer contribution
Life, AD&D, short-term, and long-term disability insurance
15 accrued PTO days per year, plus statutory local paid holidays and paid sick days

Why join us?

Shape the future of live shopping: Be part of a dynamic team revolutionizing the online shopping experience, combining creativity and technology to create immersive, interactive platforms for sellers and buyers alike.

Collaborate with industry pioneers:

Work alongside a nimble, innovative team, backed by some of the most prestigious VCs in Silicon Valley, with opportunities to influence the product direction.

Solving complex challenges:

You'll take on complex problems that others haven't yet been able to solve, driving innovation and pushing boundaries in your work.

Thrive in a flat, startup environment: Take full ownership of your projects while working alongside a supportive team that values collaboration and mutual respect.

Our Commitment to Diversity and Inclusion

Palmstreet is proud to be an equal opportunity employer. We celebrate diversity and encourage applications from everyone—especially those whose identities are traditionally underrepresented in tech.

We do not discriminate on race, religion, color, gender expression or identity, sexual orientation, ancestry, national origin, citizenship, age, marital status, veteran status, disability status, political belief, or any other characteristic protected by law.

For roles in Canada, we also comply with the Employment Equity Act.

Application Process

We're excited to review your application If your experience aligns with what we're looking for, our hiring team will reach out to schedule an initial screening call and walk you through the next steps of our interview process.

As part of the interview process, candidates will be required to complete a 2-hour take-home design challenge.

This exercise is designed to assess your problem-solving approach, visual design skills, and ability to think through user experience challenges.

It will not be Palmstreet-related and will focus on a neutral, product design scenario.

While we try our best to respond to everyone, the high volume of applications may mean we're unable to provide individual updates if we decide not to move forward.
