Product Designer offer letter template

Designers notice the letter itself. A plain Word document from a company that sells design is a mixed message. The cover template puts the welcome first, the compensation and start date in cards, and the terms on clean pages. Add a line about the tools, the design system and who they will work with.

What to include in a product designer offer letter

  • Base, bonus and equity in one summary.
  • The team, the manager and the first project if you know it.
  • Equipment: laptop, monitor, software licences, and any home-office stipend.
  • Hybrid or remote terms in days per week.
  • Learning and conference budget if you offer one.
  • A short personal note. Designers remember it.

Questions

Should I attach the portfolio review feedback?
No. Keep the letter to the offer. Send feedback separately if you want to.
Is a signing bonus normal for designers?
At senior levels, yes, usually to cover a bonus or equity they are walking away from.
Sending this to a real candidate?
