What you will do

• Set a cohesive design strategy and experience vision across multiple products, industries, and business workflows.
• Lead, develop, and empower a team of senior and principal-level product designers.
• Identify shared user needs and interaction patterns, turning them into reusable components, patterns, and scalable design systems.

• Partner with product and engineering teams from planning through delivery, influencing priorities and product decisions.
• Champion customer research, communicate design strategy to senior leaders, critique work, and stay hands-on with complex design challenges.

Requirements

• Experience leading product design teams, including at least two years managing five or more designers, ideally including senior or principal-level individual contributors.
• Strong product design background with modern enterprise SaaS, business-user-facing products, or consumer digital experiences.
• Experience establishing design strategy across multiple products, teams, or business domains.
• Deep systems thinking, including direct experience developing, scaling, or meaningfully evolving design systems and reusable experience patterns.

• Builder mindset and understanding of modern frontend applications, including production code shipped alongside engineering partners or leadership of designers who do so.
• Strong cross-functional leadership, customer empathy, research and customer-engagement experience, and the ability to communicate complex ideas clearly.
• Comfort operating in ambiguity, navigating competing priorities, and making thoughtful decisions in a rapidly evolving technology environment.

Nice to have

• Familiarity with GitHub and modern frontend development workflows.
• Experience leading distributed teams or collaborating across North American and European time zones.
• Experience evolving traditional design organizations toward AI-native, code-first working practices.
