About Us

Higharc is a VC-backed startup that is changing how new homes are designed and built. Join a founding team who’ve shipped products for Autodesk, Electronic Arts, Nike, and Apple. We have raised a total of $83M with support from top-notch venture capital firms and more than 18 strategic investors—industry leaders in construction, building products manufacturing, and distribution.

Higharc is seeking an accomplished UX Designer to join our growing Product org. In this role, you'll define and craft end-to-end experiences that simplify the complex—and make home design and construction more accessible, efficient, and human.

What You'll Do

You’ll work alongside a multidisciplinary team of engineers, architects, and 3D visualization experts to design tools that serve builders, buyers, and everyone involved in bringing homes to life. Your work will have a lasting, real-world impact and play a critical role in shaping the future of the homebuilding industry. Expect to:

  • Design End-to-End Experiences: Lead the UX and UI design of web-based tools across Higharc’s platform.

  • Simplify the Complex: Translate detailed workflows into clear, human-centered experiences.

  • Collaborate Cross-Functionally: Work closely with product managers and engineers to ensure cohesive product thinking. Partner closely with homebuilders, suppliers, contractors, and buyers to understand their needs and pain points.

  • Own Design Process: Develop user flows, journey maps, wireframes, prototypes, and high-fidelity visuals to articulate design intent.

  • Influence Product Strategy: Bring a strong, user-focused design perspective to product decisions.

  • Validate with Data: Leverage both qualitative and quantitative user insights to inform and iterate on designs.

  • Champion Design Systems:Contribute to and evolve our design system to ensure consistency and scalability.

About You

You’re a product-minded designer who thrives on solving complex problems and crafting user-centered solutions. You’re passionate about improving how people design and live in their homes—and energized by the opportunity to make a meaningful dent in an outdated industry.

You have:

  • 7+ years of experience designing web-based software

  • A track record of shipping high-quality, thoughtful product experiences in complex domains

  • A strong portfolio that showcases your process, thinking, and ability to simplify complexity

  • Deep user empathy and a clear, confident communication style—especially when working with cross-functional teams

  • A systems-thinking mindset with the ability to balance detail with big-picture product vision

  • Experience in defining and delivering net-new experiences, not just iterating on existing patterns

  • Comfort articulating trade-offs, managing ambiguity, and driving toward clarity in fast-moving environments

A major plus if you also bring:

  • A background or passion in architecture, construction tech, or home design

  • Familiarity with 3D tools or environments (e.g., Revit, Rhino, SketchUp, Unity, Three.js)

  • Experience contributing to or evolving a design system

View company profile

At Higharc, our core mission is to empower homebuilders to create superior homes and communities with greater affordability. We recognized that homebuilding practices hadn't fundamentally changed in a century, and we set out to change that by automating architecture, sales, and construction processes through a web-based platform. This vision was born from our CEO Marc Minor's personal frustrations with the home building process in early 2018. Drawing from his experiences at the forefront of software and generative design at companies like Carbon3D and Desktop Metal, Marc envisioned a way to apply these transformative technologies to an industry still reliant on traditional methods. He believed in using technology to make communities more personal and embarked on this journey, leaving the 3D printing world behind.

Our values are the bedrock of our company, guiding every decision, hire, and tool we utilize. Kindness is paramount; we foster a culture of support, encouragement, and respect. We believe focused work yields the best results, and we structure our environment to prioritize deep concentration, which in turn allows for greater flexibility in other aspects of life. Community is another cornerstone – we are an eclectic group from diverse backgrounds, and we celebrate this variety, knowing that different perspectives lead to stronger outcomes. We are committed to delivering the 'best to market,' constantly testing, iterating, and refining our solutions with meticulous attention to detail and a strong sense of pride in our craft. Finally, we embrace 'critiques are critical'; open and honest feedback is vital for rapid progress and achieving the best solutions, so we continuously scrutinize our work and hold ourselves accountable to our goals. This dedication to innovation and a supportive, driven culture allows us to help builders navigate changes, increase margins, and reduce cycle times, ultimately transforming the way homes are built.
