About the Role We’re looking for a

Lead UX/UI Designer

to own and elevate the end-to-end product experience across our platform. In this role, you’ll define design direction, lead complex design initiatives, and collaborate closely with Product, Engineering, and stakeholders to build intuitive, scalable, and delightful user experiences.

You’ll act as both a

hands‑on designer

and a

design leader —setting standards, mentoring others, and ensuring design decisions are grounded in user needs and business goals.

What You’ll Do

Lead the UX/UI strategy and visual direction across core product experiences

Own the end-to-end design process: discovery, user flows, wireframes, high‑fidelity UI, and prototypes

Translate complex product and technical requirements into clear, usable interfaces

Partner closely with Product Managers and Engineers to define scope, priorities, and solutions

Drive user‑centered decision making through research, usability testing, and data insights

Establish and evolve design systems, patterns, and documentation to ensure consistency and scalability

Review and refine designs to maintain a high bar for quality and usability

Mentor and provide feedback to other designers, fostering strong design craft and collaboration

Advocate for UX best practices and accessibility standards across the organization

What We’re Looking For

6+ years of experience in UX/UI or Product Design, with experience in a

lead or senior role

Strong portfolio showcasing end‑to‑end design thinking, not just visuals

Deep understanding of UX principles, interaction design, information architecture, and visual design

Proven experience designing complex products (SaaS, enterprise, AI, or data‑heavy platforms preferred)

Expertise in design tools such as Figma (components, auto‑layout, prototyping, design systems)

Ability to balance user needs, business goals, and technical constraints

Strong communication and storytelling skills—you can clearly explain design decisions to any audience

Experience collaborating with cross‑functional teams in agile or fast‑moving environments

Nice to Have

Experience building or scaling design systems

Familiarity with usability testing, analytics, or A/B testing

Experience designing AI‑driven or workflow‑heavy products

Leadership or people‑management experience

Why You’ll Love Working Here

High ownership and real impact on product direction

Opportunity to shape design culture and standards

Close collaboration with product and engineering leadership

Room to grow as a design leader
