Lead Product Designer

Crossing Hurdles is a global recruitment firm partnering with a design-forward consumer fitness platform delivering world-class strength training programs. They are seeking a Lead Product Designer to own end-to-end product design across core consumer experiences and collaborate closely with engineers and product teams to create intuitive mobile experiences.

Responsibilities:

• Own end-to-end product design across core consumer experiences — from discovery and concepting through high-fidelity execution and launch
• Design beautiful, intuitive, consumer-grade mobile experiences used daily by a highly engaged subscriber base
• Act as a strategic thought partner to Product and Engineering while remaining deeply hands-on in Figma
• Translate ambiguous product opportunities into clear UX direction, visual hierarchy, and interaction models
• Collaborate closely with engineers to ensure pixel-perfect, production-quality implementation
• Influence broader design systems, brand evolution, and product cohesion as the product scales into new surfaces (nutrition, community, Android, international)
• Operate as a senior IC-first leader in a lean, high-ownership environment with minimal bureaucracy

Requirements:

• 7–10+ years of experience as a Product Designer, ideally at consumer-facing, subscription-based mobile apps
• Proven ability to ship high-craft iOS experiences that drive real user engagement and retention
• Strong portfolio demonstrating taste, clarity, simplicity, and practical UX judgment
• Experience working in fast-paced startups or high-agency environments with limited process overhead
• Comfortable owning large problem spaces and making decisions with incomplete information
• Strong collaboration skills with Product Managers and Engineers
• Passion for staying hands-on — this is not a people-management role
