Senior Product Designer II - Inventory Designer

Habit Burger & Grill is seeking a Senior Product Designer II to serve as the IC Design Lead for Inventory. This role involves owning the end-to-end user experience for Inventory, collaborating closely with Product Management and Engineering to design efficient solutions for complex operational challenges.

Responsibilities:

• Support and lead UX for the Inventory product area, aligning design direction with product goals, operational realities, and user needs
• Frame complex inventory challenges into clear, actionable design opportunities across workflows such as counting, ordering, waste, transfers, prep, and reporting
• Translate business and operational goals into coherent experience direction without over-indexing on feature-level design
• Design end-to-end, production-ready experiences across mobile and web for operational users (e.g., restaurant managers, shift leads, team members)
• Create clear user flows, interaction patterns, and detailed UI designs that balance usability, speed, accuracy, and real-world constraints
• Ensure designs support scalability, accessibility, and consistency while remaining pragmatic for engineering delivery
• Act as the primary design partner for Inventory Product and Engineering leads
• Facilitate design critiques, working sessions, and reviews to align across disciplines
• Communicate tradeoffs clearly, balancing usability, technical feasibility, and delivery constraints
• Advocate for user-centered solutions while navigating tradeoffs between operational needs, technical constraints, and business priorities
• Design for operational environments where speed, legibility, and error recovery are critical
• Incorporate accessibility and usability best practices appropriate for shared, on-premise systems
• Anticipate failure modes and 'unhappy paths,' ensuring the system remains usable under stress or degraded conditions

Requirements:

• 5+ years of experience in product design, UX design, or interaction design
• Proven ability to lead UX strategy and execution for a feature set or product area within a cross-functional team
• Strong interaction, systems, and workflow design skills—especially for data-heavy, operational, or task-driven products
• Experience designing for mobile-first or mobile-heavy environments
• High bar for interaction design, information hierarchy, and usability
• Comfortable designing detailed flows, states, and edge cases for real-world use
• Strong proficiency with modern design tools (e.g., Figma) and design documentation practices
• Demonstrated ability to partner deeply with Product and Engineering
• Clear communicator who can explain design rationale and tradeoffs to technical and non-technical audiences
• Comfortable operating with autonomy and limited supervision within a defined product area
