What you'll do

As the Lead Product Designer, your mission will be to deliver top-notch experiences. You will achieve this by leading strategic design initiatives and connecting multiple projects to create a cohesive vision that makes a new product feel like it was designed by a single hand.

  • Jump in and create visions that blend AI and human support experiences while planning and driving work forward with your direct team. This exciting, multi-faceted project requires an accomplished lead with skills in strategic design, information architecture, interaction design, and a systems approach to interface design.
  • Make a substantial impact at scale. We have more than 10M users worldwide, and teams large and small depend on our software to do their work. As a designer, you will be involved in everything from ground-floor product strategy to UI implementation, and your work will have an incredible customer impact.
  • You will have a great deal of ownership and autonomy across the entire design process; rather than designing individual features, you will define the end-to-end product experience.
  • Collaborate with some of the industry's smartest (and nicest) people. Daily, you'll work on a multidisciplinary product team, collaborating with Engineers, Product Managers, Content Designers, Researchers, Marketing Experts, and Analysts to advocate for the user experience in our products and ship high-quality work.
  • Be a true champion for our users. We take design seriously and are on a mission to become a world-class design organization. We want to make our customers love how easily our products help them.
  • Rigorously prioritize and strategically plan with your triad to ensure the team's focus is clear and they can excel in a dynamic and ever-changing environment- be it tomorrow, a quarter or years away.
  • Contribute to a vibrant team culture, inspiring a team of diverse talents to do their best work. Some days, this might be something fun and social. On other days, you may mentor other designers on increasing their work's impact.
  • You will report to the Head of Design.

You will bring:

  • 10+ years of professional product design experience, working at visual, UX and conceptual design altitudes
  • Experience designing complex or enterprise-level software,
  • The ability to drive a user-centered design process
  • Facilitation and cross-functional collaboration skills: you can demonstrate the ability to work with multiple teams, solicit and synthesize feedback, and facilitate design discussions
  • Openness to the iterative design process constantly sketching, showing work in progress, validating with customers and data, iterating, shipping, learning, and growing
  • Experience conducting and applying customer research (together with our research team), including design thinking, prototyping, and conceptual modelling
  • A collaborative approach to building capabilities in tight partnership with customers - our customers are very engaged, and our designers speak with customers multiple times per week demoing prototypes, getting feedback on ideas, and gathering ideas for improvement during early access programs
  • The ability to define projects and measures of success, test your assumptions and outcomes, and incorporate feedback
  • Experience improving process and methodology to increase product quality, team velocity and customer empathy
