Lead Product Designer

What You'll Do: Lead the design vision, execution and strategy across all user-facing surfaces, including rebrands and redesigns

Own the end-to-end experience and vision for a new desktop web app (rebranded components, UX upgrades)

Set the design direction in partnership with brand and marketing for new marketing pages (rebranded components, IA, UX upgrades)

Define the rituals, review processes, and culture that increase the velocity and quality of the design team.

Be the standard-bearer for mindful, high-craft EPD collaboration — modeling and teaching it to others.

Partner with product and executive leadership to define design's role in company strategy, not just execute against a roadmap handed to you. Weigh in on what we build, not only how.

Be a recognized point of view within the org (and ideally externally) on design quality, systems thinking, and product craft. Set direction on design principles and standards that outlast any single project.

Actively coach other designers, giving thoughtful critique, unblocking their thinking, and helping them grow their judgment — not just their output. Be the person others go to when a design problem is genuinely hard.

Lead the definition of new components and the redesigned app experience across Mobile.

Own and guide a new design system (web, mobile, marketing) post-rebrand, and establish the governance model for how it evolves.

What We're Looking For: 10+ years experience as a Product Designer, including significant time operating at a senior/staff/lead level in fast-paced environments.

Deep experience in consumer facing technology, fintech, or platform products, with a portfolio that shows range across strategic and executional work.

A demonstrated ability to make and defend strategic design decisions — balancing user needs, business goals, and technical constraints — and to influence roadmap and prioritization conversations at the leadership level.

A strong, well-articulated point of view on design quality, backed by research, data, and experience, along with the ability to teach that point of view to others.

Proven experience mentoring, guiding, or informally leading other designers — through critique, pairing, career conversations, or setting team-wide standards.

Craft user-friendly, delightful experiences with an exceptionally high bar for visual polish, information architecture, and cognitive load.

Comfort operating with ambiguity — able to bring structure and strategic clarity to 0-to-1 problems with incomplete information.

Autonomously ship features from 0 to 1 with a high bar for IA, UX, UI, and final visuals, while also stepping back to ensure the broader system stays coherent.

Strong stakeholder management skills — able to represent design's perspective persuasively in front of executives, PMs, and engineering leads.
