Product Designer

Role Overview

• We are hiring a Product Designer to help shape the next phase of our platform.
• This role is for a thoughtful, highly capable mid-level designer who can work across discovery, interaction design, prototyping, and delivery in an increasingly AI native product environment.
• This is a hands-on role. You will work closely with Product Management, Engineering, Data Science, and other designers to solve complex workflow, data, and usability challenges across our platform.
• We are looking for someone who combines strong product and UX fundamentals with the ability to move quickly, think in systems, and use modern AI enabled design workflows to accelerate learning and iteration.
• Our platform supports elite sports organisations making critical decisions around performance, health, and operations.
• In this context, design is not aesthetic polish. It determines how information is understood, how complexity is reduced, and how confidently users can act in fast moving, high pressure environments.
• You should be comfortable working from ambiguity to clarity, balancing user needs, business priorities, and technical constraints.
• You should also bring practical experience using generative AI design tools and lightweight code based, “vibe coded” prototypes as part of the design process, particularly to explore ideas faster, test concepts earlier, and improve collaboration with engineers.
• You will join a small, experienced, highly collaborative design team. We work across the product, partnering with squads where the greatest value and innovation can be delivered. We are looking for someone proactive, self directed, and motivated to drive work to a high standard and conclusion.

Requirements

• 7+ years in a software product design role.
• Bachelor’s degree in Design, HCI, or equivalent practical experience.
• An excellent online portfolio showcasing thinking, UX, UI, and visual design.
• Experience working closely with development teams to build web products.
• Ideal candidates will have prior experience in the sports industry.
• End to end experience from initial research through to design of user journeys.
• Strong experience using generative AI design tools as part of day to day design work.
• Practical experience creating lightweight code based or “vibe coded” prototypes to explore and communicate product ideas.
• Familiarity with tools such as Figma Make and modern prototyping environments, including those used alongside platforms such as Vercel.
• Working knowledge of LLM based systems, predictive models, and AI driven product features.
• Comfort designing for explainability, human oversight, and trust where AI is involved.
• Curiosity about emerging interaction models such as conversational UI, voice, multimodal input, and agent like workflows.
• A strong portfolio demonstrating strategic thinking, UX depth, and visual clarity.
• Demonstrated systems thinking, with the ability to design coherent experiences across complex and interconnected workflows.
• Experience building or scaling a design system.
• Ability to operate at both platform and interaction level detail.
• Clear communication of trade offs and design rationale.
• Proactive, collaborative, and motivated to drive work to a high standard and conclusion.
• Comfortable working in ambiguity and helping create clarity.
• Open to feedback and able to engage constructively in critique and iteration.
• Able to balance speed and quality in a fast moving product environment.
• Strong ownership mindset without needing formal authority.
