Your Responsibilities: 

• Own the end-to-end design process, from understanding user and business needs through to delivery and iteration.
• Translate complex operational workflows into simple, intuitive and efficient user experiences.
• Collaborate with squad leads to influence product direction and prioritization.
• Use customer feedback, product data and research to identify problems and inform design decisions.
• Conduct user research and usability testing when needed to validate assumptions and solutions.
• Design mobile and web experiences, creating high-quality wireframes, prototypes and UI designs.
• Collaborate closely with engineers throughout development and support the implementation of designs.
• Facilitate workshops and alignment sessions with stakeholders.

• Strong experience with end-to-end product design in complex digital products.
• Strong communication skills and ability to balance user needs, business goals and technical constraints.
• A data-informed mindset and experience using customer feedback or product data to support design decisions, qualitative and quantitative.
• Excellent design tool skills (e.g. Figma) skills and experience working with design systems and reusable components.
• Experience designing (native) mobile applications and/or responsive web products.
• Experience working in Agile, cross-functional product teams.
• Ability to independently own a product area and drive design work from problem definition to implementation.

What makes someone a great fit?

You should be comfortable navigating ambiguity, challenging assumptions and bringing the user perspective into product conversations. You will need to build relationships across different teams, communicate clearly, and advocate for good experiences while understanding business priorities and technical constraints.

The ideal candidate is proactive, pragmatic and collaborative, with the confidence to take ownership, the flexibility to adapt to a complex and evolving product environment, and a strong focus on creating meaningful impact through design. They understand that good design is not just about delivering great experiences, but also about solving the right problems and contributing to measurable outcomes for both users and the business.
