Senior Product Designer New Tokyo
Method, Inc., New York, NY, United States
Method is a global design and engineering consultancy founded in 1999. We believe that innovation should be meaningful, beautiful and human. We craft practical, powerful digital experiences that improve lives and transform businesses. Our teams are based in Japan, Bengaluru, New York, Charlotte, Atlanta, London, and remote.
As a Senior Product Designer, you will work closely with Method clients and team members – Product, Development, and QA – to conceptualize and craft seamless user experiences that support business objectives.
You will be involved in product strategy from the very beginning, offering your knowledge and unique expertise to help shape product direction and turn ideas and concepts into a workable design. You will produce wireframes, prototypes, style guides and hi‑fidelity designs to explore, experiment and ultimately advocate for simple, elegant solutions to complex problems.
You must be able to balance pixel‑perfect attention to detail with low‑fidelity design choices. At Method, we firmly believe that user feedback and data evolve products. Meetings and presentations are necessary to build consensus and achieve buy‑in, but working software is the ultimate validation of any single approach.
Qualifications
Experience leading the design efforts for one or more successful – successfully shipped or successfully downloaded – online or mobile products. You know great UX, and you can walk us through your portfolio and tell a compelling story about the hard decisions and compromises you had to make along the way.
Strong understanding of creating prototypes and production ready designs. This includes things like design systems, components, component libraries, accessibility, and interactive prototypes created through various methods including Figma, AI tooling and vibe coding.
Functionally bilingual in business Japanese (e.g. N2) and English (e.g. ~TOEIC 750).
You understand why we have UI best practices, and you don’t try to reinvent dropdowns with each new project. You want the interface to look as polished as possible, but you also value a good hard deadline.
Excellent communication skills with the ability to communicate persuasively across different audiences, to diverse people at varying levels of an organization. You design it, you pitch it. Nobody hides behind project managers here.
An insatiable curiosity and a constant drive to do and be better. You download new apps and take screenshots. You try out new design tools. You attend industry events. You do stuff on the side. You love what you do, you want to be great at it, and you know there’s always something new to learn.
