Role Overview

We’re hiring a Product Design Lead to raise the quality, coherence and distinctiveness of our product experience. This person will materially improve how quickly strong ideas become shipped outcomes. This is a functional leadership role, not a squad-level IC position. You will lead a small team of Product Designers and a Senior UX Researcher, and partner closely with Product and Engineering leadership. Product will anchor commercial intent. Engineering will anchor feasibility and execution. You are accountable for the integrity, clarity and effectiveness of the user experience across squads.

Significant experience leading design in complex, product-led environments.
A track record of improving both experience quality and delivery effectiveness.
Strong cross-functional partnership with Product and Engineering leaders.
Evidence of reducing friction through clearer direction and systems thinking.
The confidence to challenge constructively, and the pragmatism to ship.
