Cella is seeking a Product Designer to support discovery-led exploration focused on identifying new opportunities for mobile experiences aimed at Millennial and Gen Z investors. This role emphasizes conceptual design, where the designer will create high-impact prototypes and narratives to influence strategy rather than delivering production-ready designs.
Responsibilities:
- Help the team and senior leaders align around a compelling future vision for differentiated mobile experiences by:
- Exploring unmet and emerging needs of Millennial and Gen Z investors
- Generating novel, forward-looking experience concepts
- Translating ideas into high-impact prototypes and narratives that influence strategy and roadmap decisions
- Lead and co-lead discovery-oriented design exploration within ambiguous problem spaces
- Generate and iterate on early-stage experience concepts (net-new ideas, not incremental improvements)
- Partner closely with a dedicated UX researcher, consuming research insights and contributing to collaborative discovery
- Rapidly prototype concepts (often high-fidelity) to communicate and sell ideas, not to hand off to engineering
- Create clear, compelling narratives and decks for periodic senior-leader readouts
- Works in a co-led discovery model with UX leadership, research, and product partners
- Comfortable receiving direction and framing from leaders when priorities or constraints are set
- Operates effectively in high ambiguity and helps shape the problem space
Requirements:
- Conceptual thinking and future-state experience design
- Framing ambiguous problem spaces
- Rapid prototyping to explore and communicate ideas
- Storytelling and narrative development, especially for senior stakeholders
