Sudowrite is hiring a Product Design Lead to reinvent writing

Hey, I’m Amit. I’m one of the founders of Sudowrite, and this was a really hard job listing to write. To be honest, I put it off for weeks. A big part of it was because I didn’t want Ryan, our current designer, to leave. He’s been with us for nearly four years, and in that time he’s played a huge role in making our company successful. More than that, he’s become a friend, and I didn’t feel ready to say goodbye. (I used Ryan's favorite font to honor him.) Knowing I had to write this job listing made his leaving feel all too real. But writing it now is helping me process. It’s kind of like he’s dying. Or we’re breaking up. Thank you for coming to my therapy session. As a startup founder, you’re supposed to always be like “we’re crushing it!!”, even if you’re not. (Truth be told, we are crushing it, but whatever.) If anything bad ever happens, you’re supposed to keep it hush hush. After all, people are replaceable, up-and-to-the-right is all that matters, and crushing things is cool. But
