The Role In One Line You are the solo product designer who will bridge the gap between creative vision and shipping real code. You will design, build, and implement highly polished consumer-facing mobile experiences that connect our app directly to the Simply Bread brand. We need a "team of one" who takes our B2C app from generic screens to a beautiful, intuitive marketplace that bakers and buyers love. Who You Are You are a relentlessly curious designer who hates waiting on engineers to push updates. You have a deep understanding of B2C and marketplace products, knowing how to weave brand identity into every button, flow, and typography choice. You thrive as an individual contributor in a fast-paced startup trench, operating with minimal direction to solve complex user problems. You do not need to be spoon-fed ideas; you bring strong independent judgment and full-stack capabilities to the table. You value execution speed, using AI tools to iterate fast before locking in pixel-perfect layouts. Most importantly, you care obsessively about the total user experience, from the first onboarding click to the final checkout. What You’ll Actually Do - Architect and implement a beautiful, highly functional B2C mobile experience. You will push updates directly into the product, elevating our app from generic SaaS layouts to a cohesive, brand-aware consumer story. - Execute fast design iterations and ship improvements quickly. You win daily by using AI workflows (like v0 and Lovable) to speed up discovery, finalizing pixel-perfect screens in Figma, and pushing UI updates without bottlenecking the engineering team. - Optimize our design-to-development pipeline. You will build comprehensive, modern design systems that enforce visual consistency, typography standards, and flawless onboarding flows across the entire platform. - Take 100% ownership of the app's UX as a solo designer. You will operate with high autonomy, bringing independent ideas to the founders and engineering team without needing detailed direction or hand-holding. - Solve complex marketplace puzzles with rapid turnarounds. You will redesign and ship critical user flows—like multi-variable checkout and local delivery routing—within a week-scale timeframe. What We're Looking For - 3+ years of UX/UI design experience building consumer (B2C) or marketplace apps, specifically operating as a solo designer or "team of one." - Mastery of Figma and AI-assisted design workflows (v0, Lovable), plus the technical capability to implement designs and push UI updates directly. - A non-negotiable obsession with brand identity, typography, readability, and complete user flows—you do not just make screens; you build cohesive product stories. - Startup Mindset: You move fast, thrive on limited inputs, and favor independent execution in the trenches over perfectionism and constant direction. - Familiarity with user behavior analytics (like Hotjar) to make data-driven decisions. Bonus Points: - Direct experience with marketplace, creator, or commerce-focused lifestyle apps. Why Simply Bread We make a smart bread oven and the ecosystem around it: a marketplace app, POS, pickup lockers, and the hardware that lets bakers go from hobbyist to business. We're growing across the US, Canada, Australia, and Europe!

About Mook's Bagels I'm starting a bagel company called Mook's Bagels. Right now the plan is farmers' markets, and if it goes well I want to open a real shop down the line. I'm a web developer (but love to cook/bake on the side), so I can find my way around Figma without a problem. I actually designed our current deli paper myself and I'm happy with it. What I can't do is the illustration and the real creative side, and that is exactly what I'm hiring for. One thing to keep in mind as you read this: everything here is my initial idea, not a locked spec. I'm a developer, not a designer, so if you see a stronger direction than what I've laid out, I want to hear it. I'm hiring you for the creative instinct I don't have, so feel free to push back on any of it. I'm splitting this into two phases. This post is phase one, the core brand. If we work well together there is a bigger phase two with a lot more illustration, which I describe at the bottom. The look I want Retro cartoon, a little neo-brutalist. Picture a friendly cartoon bagel with big eyes and that vintage but modern feel. I'll attach a reference sheet I put together (mascot poses, expressions, a rig breakdown) along with my deli paper so you can see where my head is at. The colors I'm using are a deep cobalt blue (around #0F2A97), a cream (#FCEDCF), and a warm orange. I'm open to you tightening those up. The logo My main idea is a "MOOK'S" wordmark where the two O's are bagels. I want those bagels actually illustrated, not just circles. If you have a stronger take, pitch it, but that is the direction I keep coming back to. A cartoon bagel character with big eyes as a mascot is also fair game, either alongside the wordmark or worked into it. What I need in phase one - The primary logo (the "MOOK'S" wordmark with illustrated bagel O's) plus the usual variants: horizontal, stacked, an icon or submark, and a one-color version. All vector. - A circular illustrated piece made to sit in the middle of a packaged bagel, right over the hole. The logo arched around the top, with a bagel or food illustration in the brand style. This one is meant to be the everyday sticker that goes on every bagel, so it is brand art, not a specific flavor yet. - Brand guidelines I can actually use day to day: logo do's and don'ts, color values, type styles, and notes on how the illustration style works so it stays consistent later. - One finalized square deli paper layout. I already have a version I like, so this is about refining and locking it, not starting over. - A type system: font picks with the licensing details, set up as styles. How I want it handed off - Final files in Figma, organized, with components and color and text styles, so I can build on it myself. Vector exports (SVG or AI) welcome too. - No AI generated artwork. Phase two (later, separate budget, only if phase one goes well) Once the style and the circular template are locked, I'll want a full set of flavor stickers built on top of it. Eight bagel flavors and six cream cheeses, each with its own illustration in the brand style (for example, jalapeños and melted cheddar on the jalapeño cheddar one). That is its own scope and its own budget. If you put a per-illustration rate in your proposal, I can plan around it. Timeline No big rush, but I want to get moving. I'd expect this is roughly a week of work for the right person. Please include in your proposal - Links to your work, especially hand drawn mascots, characters, or food illustration. - A yes that you will hand off organized, editable Figma files. - A yes that the work is fully human with no AI, and that you will share sketches along the way. - Your per-illustration rate for the phase two flavor work.

Long-term partnership. Individual operator or tight team. Bootstrapped venture. Propose your engagement. Project Overview BuildQuest is a SaaS marketplace helping homeowners plan $100K–$2M construction projects — major remodels, additions, custom builds. We solve a chronic problem that has plagued residential construction for decades, and we solve it from both sides of the marketplace. Order matters: BuildQuest was built to serve homeowners first. Pros come second. That orientation defines our positioning, pricing, and every decision. What we are BuildQuest is a real SaaS platform in active development — not a slide deck and not a solo founder side project. There’s a serious engineering team, a UI/UX and product lead, and an advisory board with deep tech backgrounds. The product is in good hands. What’s been founder-built and now needs a marketing partner is the public-facing marketing layer — brand voice, story, creative, distribution, infrastructure. That’s the work this hire takes over. Companion Document We’ve also attached the BuildQuest Marketing Manifesto to this posting — eight specific beliefs that shape what we’re hiring for. Please review it before responding. Candidates who reference it directly in their proposal will be evaluated more favorably. The two-sided problem Homeowner side (B2C — primary audience, paying customer). Planning a major project today means fragmenting effort across Pinterest, contractor calls, cost calculators, and trial-and-error research — to figure out what to build, articulate a personal style, land on a realistic budget, and find qualified pros. Months or years. Many projects die in the planning phase. Pro side (B2B — served through serving homeowners). Design and construction pros burn hundreds of hours on unrealistic prospects, then get charged by referral services to chase the same kind of leads. They’re tired of being courted as the customer. How BuildQuest flips the script. Most marketplaces in this category court pros as the customer and treat homeowners as the lead being sold. We do the opposite. Homeowners are the paying customer. Pros earn access by being good at their work — and what they get is fundamentally different from a referral platform: clients with clear scope, defined style, realistic budgets, ready to engage. That’s the B2B strategy: serve pros by serving the homeowner well. Why Now • AI is rewriting consumer discovery. Google search volume is plateauing for the first time. Homeowners increasingly ask ChatGPT, Perplexity, and Claude. The search-and-aggregator model that built Houzz and Angi is structurally shifting. • The referral-platform model is collapsing under pro fatigue and broken unit economics. • Consumer expectations for premium service in residential construction are at an all-time high — with almost nothing in the current landscape meeting them. Someone builds the homeowner-first incumbent in this space within the next 24 months. We intend it to be us. The marketing partner who joins now helps decide what that brand becomes. Why this engagement is different Long-term partnership, preserves your independence. Joining for the long haul — not executing a campaign and disappearing, and not a soft pitch to W-2. The best independents are independent for real reasons; we respect that. Brand DNA, not brand amplification. The narrative, voice, message architecture, and launch playbook are still being shaped. You help architect them. That window closes at launch. A storytelling and visual craft role at its core. The marketing partner owns the brand’s words and the visual output of marketing — mockups, ad creative, collateral, video concepts, social. Clint runs UI/UX and product design; the marketing partner runs marketing design. Two crafts, side by side. Founder-led content is the engine. Bill’s podcast (59 episodes and growing), book, and 30+ years of expertise are the engine. The partner builds the systems around it that scale the founder’s authority — amplification, distribution, repurposing. Founder-engaged collaboration. Bill is present at the weekly working session, looped in on meaningful decisions, and reviewing what goes out before it ships. The partner brings finished thinking and finished work; Bill reacts, we refine, we ship. Decisions happen in days, not months. Core focus areas Creative voice, copy & visual execution (primary) • Develop the brand voice and message architecture for both audiences (homeowner-first B2C, pro-serving B2B) • Write the core marketing collateral — landing pages, email sequences, ad copy, sales pages, social posts, video scripts, podcast descriptions • Produce designed mockups and finished-feeling marketing collateral — show up to working sessions with visualized concepts, not just briefs • Identify hook points — the moments where a homeowner (or pro) commits — and architect messaging and creative around them • Build the educational content strategy that translates 30+ years of construction expertise into content that genuinely teaches and converts • Develop launch narratives across pre-launch, beta, soft launch, public phases Launch & lifecycle systems (primary) • Design and execute waitlist and beta tester recruitment • Recruit design and construction pros to the platform’s free tier • Architect the full lifecycle — acquisition, activation, retention, expansion, referral, win-back • Run early acquisition tests with discipline on owned vs. rented attention Distribution & owned channels • Build distribution systems that turn content into actual attention • Prioritize owned media (email, podcast, community) over rented (paid) • Establish partnership and co-marketing strategy with adjacent brands Polish & revamp the marketing layer • Elevate the current marketing websites (founder-built; in need of partner-driven polish or revamp) • Audit and elevate current social presence and email list • Keep / optimize / rebuild decisions; lead execution Marketing infrastructure • Propose and implement CRM, automation, analytics, reporting • Email automation workflows • AI-augmented content workflows turning 59+ podcast episodes into multi-channel reach Content strategy, SEO & AI-era discovery • Modern SEO: semantic search, topic clusters, E-E-A-T • AI-era discovery: GEO/AEO, structured content for LLM citation, presence inside AI-generated answers • Repurposing systems for long-form expertise • Local SEO for the pro side Required capabilities Creative voice and copy. This role lives or dies on storytelling. You take 30+ years of construction expertise and turn it into stories homeowners feel and pros trust. You write hooks that convert. You design educational content that earns trust by genuinely teaching. You think in hook points and architect messaging around them. You write in long-form and short-form, B2C and B2B. Visual design fluency. You bring concepts to life visually — mockups, layouts, ad creative, social posts, video concepts, marketing collateral that’s already designed when it hits the table. Fluent in modern design tools (Figma, Canva, AI design and video tools). You produce finished-feeling work without waiting on a designer. Sector experience. U.S. home improvement, real estate, or residential design/construction — or proven ability to go deep on a complex category fast, with portfolio evidence. 0→1 launch experience. You’ve shaped brand positioning from scratch and taken products through pre-launch → beta → soft → public launch. Portfolio work to show. AI-era discovery (GEO/AEO). You build for presence inside AI-generated answers, not just search results pages. The most consequential shift in marketing discovery since Google itself The mission for a 2026 launch. Distribution-first thinking. Content abundance is no longer the constraint; distribution is. You measure success on reach and engagement, not output volume. Lifecycle marketing. You think in the full arc — acquisition, activation, retention, expansion, referral, win-back — not just the funnel top. Modern, AI-augmented marketing practice. You’ve built technology-augmented workflows that deliver meaningful productivity gains. Show us how a single operator or tight team uses today’s tools to deliver what used to take ten people — and how that leverage serves both sides of a two-sided marketplace. Analytics, stack architecture, systems thinking. Expert-level analytics, A/B testing, attribution, dashboard design. Can propose and implement a marketing stack appropriate to an early-stage two-sided SaaS. Reusable workflows. Strongly preferred • Two-sided marketplace experience — chicken-and-egg dynamics, geographic clustering, network effects • Vertical SaaS marketing — deep industry credibility, partnerships, community over feature comparisons • Founder-led content systems — you’ve built repurposing and distribution around a founder’s voice without losing the voice Helpful, not required • Performance marketing (Meta Ads, Google Ads, LinkedIn) • Podcast and long-form content optimization • Conversion rate optimization • Prior fractional or agency experience with early-stage clients What you’d be working with • Podcast: 59 episodes (and growing) of long-form expert content with established production workflows • Quinn AI Guide: designed character with voice synthesis and locked tagline, integrated into the platform • Companion brand: book + podcast feeding the platform’s AI knowledge base • Brand Standards v2: visual identity foundation in place • Two marketing websites — founder-built; in need of partner-driven polish or revamp • Live interactive tools on the platform site (proof of the platform philosophy) • Social presence across multiple channels — also founder-built, also needs elevation • Small email list ready to grow and segment How the founder works High standards, intense attention to detail. Every element of design, development, and brand reflects 30+ years of working on projects where one missed detail costs months and tens of thousands. Founder-engaged collaboration. Bill is present at the weekly working session, looped in on meaningful decisions, and reviewing what goes out before it ships. The partner brings finished thinking and finished work; Bill reacts, we refine, we ship. Decisions happen in days, not months. Deep respect for marketing’s value. Bill is not the founder who treats marketing as “spend” or expects magic. He’s looking for a partner whose expertise he respects, whose work he’ll back, and whose voice carries weight in decisions. Dual-vantage perspective. Bill operates from rare understanding of both homeowner and pro perspectives. Expect this to enrich every conversation about positioning, message, and audience.

Tell us: • Solo operator or tight team • Time commitment you’d propose for this scope • Engagement model (retainer, project-based, hybrid) • Marketing stack you’d recommend and approximate run-rate cost • How you’d structure the first 90 days • Your view on staying beyond launch as a long-term partner We evaluate on quality of thinking, fit with our reality, and the strength of the work itself — not just on price.

Description We are building Cardinal Hearts, a Stanford-centered digital wellness and anonymous peer support platform designed to help students navigate romantic relationships--share experiences, seek support, access personalized resources, and foster meaningful reflection in a psychologically safe environment. The platform will be fully accessible across both mobile and desktop devices, with a seamless, intuitive experience on each. We are looking for a talented full-stack developer to build a high-resolution functional MVP/prototype with scalable frontend and backend architecture. This is not a traditional social media platform — the interaction model should feel intentional, supportive, privacy-conscious, and community-centered. --- Core Features Frontend Development We need a modern, clean, responsive application that works seamlessly across: * Mobile devices * Tablets * Desktop/laptop browsers Key features include: * Anonymous posting feed * Post creation flow * Stanford-inspired branding/aesthetic * Tagging/filter system: * “Seeking Advice” * “Just Wanted to Share” * User onboarding/login flow * Saved/bookmarked posts * Ability to “follow/save” posts for later viewing * Personal Diary feature (see below) * Responsive UI optimized for both mobile and desktop --- Community Interaction Features We want engagement to feel emotionally supportive rather than performative social media. Features include: * “I Resonated” reaction button on posts * Anonymous resonance counts visible publicly * Optional sorting/filtering by most resonated posts * Private “This Didn’t Resonate” feedback option (not visible to other users; used only for internal analytics and personalization) * Aggregate engagement signals used to improve content surfacing and recommendations --- Diary Feature (Personal Reflection System) Each user will have a **Diary**, which serves as their personal timeline of activity and reflection. Core functionality: * All public posts automatically appear in the user’s Diary, organized by date * Users can also write **private diary entries** that are never shared publicly * Clear distinction between: * Public posts (community-visible + stored in diary) * Private reflections (personal only) Diary capabilities: * Chronological timeline view of all entries * Ability to filter between public and private entries * Optional tagging of entries (e.g., reflection, advice-seeking, personal note) * Centralized place to revisit personal experiences over time --- Mood & Reflection Calendar Feature We also want a reflective mood tracking system inspired by apps like *Natural Cycles*. When users reflect or write in their diary, they can optionally select a **mood using an emoji-based system** (e.g., “Anxious 😟”, “Sad 😔”, “Calm 🙂”, etc.). Core functionality: * Users can attach a mood to each entry (optional) * Mood input should be fast and lightweight (emoji + label selection) Visualization: Users can view their data in: * Daily view (mood + associated entries) * Weekly trends * Monthly calendar or heatmap visualization of mood patterns Purpose: This feature helps users identify emotional patterns over time by connecting: * Mood states * Life events/reflections * Written posts Example: A user may notice repeated “anxious” moods on days involving a specific relationship dynamic, enabling deeper self-awareness and reflection over time. The goal is to support insight, not diagnosis — helping users better understand emotional patterns and triggers. --- Resource Library + Personalized Recommendations We are also building a curated **digital resource library** populated with materials from Stanford’s SHARE (Sexual Harassment/Assault Response & Education) office. Library may include: * Books * Articles * PDFs * Support resources * Educational materials Features: * Admin upload and management system * Categorization/tagging of resources * Personalized recommendations based on: * User posts * Diary entries * Mood data * Tag usage Recommendation system: Can initially be rules-based (no need for full AI at MVP stage) Examples: * Users expressing loneliness may be shown community/support resources * Users seeking relationship advice may receive relevant reading materials Privacy and sensitivity are critical to design. --- Analytics Dashboard (Admin/Internal) We need a basic analytics dashboard including: * Total users * Daily/weekly active users * Posts over time * Most-used tags * Most resonated-with posts * Resource engagement metrics * Repeat visitor tracking Advanced visualization requests: * Calendar view of engagement activity * Heatmap-style visualization for user engagement over time * Trend tracking for usage patterns (daily/weekly/monthly) We are open to recommendations for the best charting libraries/tools. --- Backend Development Requirements * Secure Stanford-only login/authentication * Stanford SSO preferred if feasible * Otherwise .edu-based restriction system * Database architecture and setup * Anonymous posting logic (ensuring privacy separation from identity) * User accounts and diary storage system * Saved posts/bookmarking system * Tag and category management * Moderation/reporting tools (basic MVP) * Scalable backend structure for future expansion --- Preferred Tech Stack Open to recommendations, but currently considering: * React / Next.js * Node.js * Firebase or Supabase * PostgreSQL --- Ideal Candidate * Strong full-stack web development experience * Experience building social or community platforms * Strong UI/UX instincts * Experience with authentication and secure systems * Comfortable building privacy-first products * Strong communication and fast execution mindset * Product/design thinking is a plus Bonus if you have experience with: * Anonymous social platforms * Mental wellness or student-facing products * Recommendation systems * Data visualization dashboards --- Deliverables * Functional high-fidelity MVP/prototype * Clean, documented codebase * GitHub repository handoff * Deployed staging/testing environment --- To Apply Please include: 1. Relevant portfolio/projects 2. Recommended tech stack for this build 3. Estimated timeline 4. Estimated budget range 5. Your approach to: * Anonymous posting architecture * Diary + mood tracking system * Personalized recommendation system 6. Any suggestions or improvements based on your experience We are aiming to move quickly and begin development ASAP.
