Job Summary:
The Director of Product Design leads DMG’s design organization – hiring, mentoring, and enabling a distributed team that delivers high-quality, data-informed experiences across our entire product suite: customer-facing web and mobile apps, the provider/technician app, and internal operations tools and dashboards. The role balances strategic leadership with periodic hands-on contribution, championing customer empathy, scalable design systems, and pragmatic use of AI to accelerate both team efficiency and AI-driven product features.

• Leverage AI Effectively: Identify AI opportunities to streamline team workflows (e.g., design-ops, research synthesis) and inform AI-driven product features.
• Hands-On Projects: Own 1-2 strategic design initiatives per quarter – research, prototype, and delivery – to model best practices.
• Build & Scale Team: Recruit, onboard, and develop designers; run 1:1s, design critiques, and career-growth plans that help the team punch above its weight.
• Establish Design System & Standards: Maintain a scalable design system with WCAG AA compliance and consistent brand expression.
• Measure & Improve: Define UX metrics (adoption, task success, support reduction) and present performance to executive stakeholders.
• Other duties as assigned by management.
  

What You Need:

• 12+ years in product/interaction design, including 5+ years leading multi-disciplinary design teams in SaaS or marketplace environments.
• Proven success overseeing multiple product surfaces (consumer, B2B, and internal tools) from discovery to launch.
• Experience in integrating AI/ML concepts into both design workflows and shipped product features.
• Mastery of Figma and modern prototyping/research tools; solid grasp of qualitative and quantitative UX methods.
• Demonstrated ability to build and scale a production design system.
• Clear, concise communication and stakeholder-management skills in a remote, fast-moving organization.
• Willingness to remain hands-on, delivering critical design work when needed.
• Ability to manage the stress of a fast-paced environment.
• Ability to meet the in-person requirements of the team and/or business needs.

At DMG, you’ll be part of an amazing team that encourages learning, growth, and advancement. Our company has an entrepreneurial spirit that rewards self-starters and encourages employees to take charge of their own careers.
