About Gusto
At Gusto, we're on a mission to grow the small business economy. We handle the hard stuff—like payroll, health insurance, 401(k)s, and HR—so owners can focus on their craft and customers. With teams in Denver, San Francisco, and New York, we’re proud to support more than 400,000 small businesses across the country, and we’re building a workplace that represents and celebrates the customers we serve.

About the Role:
We’re hiring a Senior Staff Product Designer to define, ship, and scale a new Benefits product area. In this role, you’ll design the software to service experience, with a focus on the role AI will play to connect the digital experience, support, sales and operations teams while maintaining the warmth and clarity customers expect from Gusto.
You’ll operate at two altitudes: set the north star vision for an emerging area, then drive an MVP and fast iterations that prove value, de‑risk, and lay the groundwork for rapid scale. You’ll collaborate with Product, Engineering, and Data to design agentic workflows (what the system does), human-in-the-loop moments (what experts do), and clear decision policies for when to automate, escalate, or pause. Your work should measurably reduce customer effort, increase accuracy and compliance, and bend cost-to-serve down while keeping the experience warm and trustworthy.
About the Team:
Product Design at Gusto is a multidisciplinary team of designers, researchers, writers, and front-end developers creating intelligent, human-centered experiences for small businesses and their teams. We use data, empathy, and craft to make complex systems like payroll and benefits feel clear, capable, and kind.
Gusto is defining what it means to be an AI-native company, and Product Design is at the center of that transformation. We’re moving fast, experimenting boldly, and shaping how intelligent systems can empower our small business customers. Designers here have the autonomy to influence both how we work and what we build—accelerating our customers’ progress and helping them reconnect with the missions that drive their work.
If you’re passionate about crafting the next era of product design and helping small businesses harness the power of AI, come join us.

At Gusto, we strive to provide rewards that empower employees to achieve their financial and personal goals. We offer competitive compensation packages with a strong emphasis on equity based compensation (ownership in Gusto). To learn more about Gusto’s compensation philosophy and benefits offerings please view our Total Rewards Approach page.
Our cash compensation range for this role is $172,000/yr to $215,000/yr in Denver & most remote locations, and $202,000/yr to $253,000/yr in San Francisco, Seattle & New York. Final offer amounts are determined by multiple factors, including candidate experience and expertise, and may vary from the amounts listed above.
Gusto has physical office spaces in Denver, San Francisco, and New York City. Employees who are based in those locations will be expected to work from the office on designated days approximately 2-3 days per week (or more depending on role). The same office expectations apply to all Symmetry roles, Gusto's subsidiary, whose physical office is in Scottsdale.
Note: The San Francisco office expectations encompass both the San Francisco and San Jose metro areas.
When approved to work from a location other than a Gusto office, a secure, reliable, and consistent internet connection is required. This includes non-office days for hybrid employees.
Our customers come from all walks of life and so do we. We hire great people from a wide variety of backgrounds, not just because it's the right thing to do, but because it makes our company stronger. If you share our values and our enthusiasm for small businesses, you will find a home at Gusto.
