LEAD THE DESIGN OF A WORLD WHERE EVERY ARTIST THRIVES

Dream Stage is not just building a product. We’re designing a new creative economy — one where artists are respected, paid fairly, and empowered to grow. 

design-first product leader

You’ll lead the experience layer of everything we build, making sure creators, curators, and partners all feel at home on our platform. 

This is not a product management role in the traditional sense. It’s a leadership opportunity for someone who lives at the intersection of systems, empathy, and storytelling. 

WHO ARE WE?

Dream Stage

We believe when people feel safe, seen, and celebrated, they thrive. We’re building a space where careers feel like art, growth feels like joy, and work feels like home. 

This is not just another job. This is a chance to help shape a cultural movement that makes people feel alive, connected, and deeply purposeful. 

WHAT YOU’LL DO

• Own and shape the full product roadmap and user journeys 
• Conduct user interviews and translate insights into usable flows 
• Design MVP prototypes and run quick test cycles 
• Collaborate with backend and frontend teams to bring features to life 
• Create intuitive, beautiful interfaces that reduce friction and enhance joy 
• Champion a product culture rooted in empathy, speed, and design intelligence 

WHAT WE'RE LOOKING FOR

• 1 to 4 years of experience in product, design, or UX leadership 
• Data Analytics skills are must as understanding the market is essential for developing a product with the right product–market fit 
• Mastery in Figma, wireframing, design systems, and UX writing 
• Proven ability to lead a product from MVP to active users 
• A calm, structured thinker who can simplify complexity into elegance 
• Deep intuition for what makes a great product experience 

BONUS IF YOU

• Have worked in a design-first company or early-stage startup 
• Understand creators and care about making tools that serve them 
• Know how to balance creativity with clarity, emotion with logic 

PRE-REQUISTIES

• Since we are an early-stage startup and have limited funding, you’ll need to bring your own laptop and phone for work purposes. Once we secure our next round, we will pave way for cutting edge hardware for all our team members 
• We operate out of Manali, Himachal Pradesh which is a beautiful landscape to be in but at the same time living here comes with its own set of challenges. We hope you are ready for the mountain challenges. 

WHAT YOU’LL GET

• Salary + ESOP as per industry standards 
• Free stay and food in Manali for the first 2 months 
• Full ownership of product strategy and experience design 
• A founding seat at the table, with decision-making power 
• A chance to shape something bold, beautiful, and original 
• A culture that supports your growth emotionally, creatively, and professionally
