We are seeking applicants with exceptional design leadership, deep enterprise product design expertise, and a forward-thinking approach to AI-enabled design practices. This role is designed for a design expert who wants to focus on meaningful product challenges, elevate design quality at scale, and help create long-lasting success for customers and colleagues alike.
What you will be doing:
- Define and drive design strategy across multiple product areas, connecting feature-level experiences to platform vision, customer outcomes, and business objectives.
- Establish organizational standards for interaction design, systems thinking, design quality, and design system governance, creating frameworks that enable consistency and scalability across teams.
- Lead complex, ambiguous, and high-impact design initiatives from discovery through execution, aligning stakeholders, shaping solutions, and measuring outcomes.
- Partner with Product, Engineering, and executive leadership to influence roadmaps, investment priorities, and architectural decisions through customer-centered design thinking and business insight.
- Champion a culture of design excellence by setting quality expectations, mentoring through influence, facilitating critique, and modeling best practices across the organization.
- Define how AI tools, agent-based workflows, and emerging technologies are incorporated into design processes, establishing standards for AI-assisted work and responsible innovation.
- Communicate design vision and business value to senior leaders, building alignment around strategic opportunities and measurable outcomes.
What you will likely bring:
- 10+ years experience in product design, including significant experience designing enterprise software or B2B SaaS products, with a portfolio demonstrating strategic impact and systems-level thinking.
- Proven ability to establish design vision, influence cross-functional stakeholders, and drive alignment across multiple product areas without direct management authority.
- Expertise in designing complex enterprise experiences, including workflow-heavy applications, data-rich interfaces, role-based systems, and platform-scale ecosystems.
- Deep knowledge of design systems, including component architecture, design tokens, governance models, and scalable operational frameworks.
- Strong understanding of AI-enabled design practices, with the ability to define workflows, influence adoption, and guide quality standards across teams.
- Exceptional communication, storytelling, and executive presentation skills, with experience connecting design investment to business outcomes.
- Demonstrated ability to elevate design craft through mentorship, standards-setting, collaboration, and leading by example.
What Could Set You Apart:
- Experience leading organization-wide transformation of design practices in AI-enabled environments.
- Hands-on experience with agent-assisted development, rapid prototyping, or emerging approaches such as vibe coding.
- Understanding of AI infrastructure, agent orchestration, context management, and designing experiences where AI agents act on behalf of users.
- Experience in manufacturing, distribution, supply chain, retail operations, or other operationally complex enterprise industries.
- A thoughtful perspective on the future of design craft, creativity, and human judgment in an AI-driven world.
