What you'll do

  • Set a multi-year experience vision for the platform and the priorities that follow from it, across the admin console, the end-user experience, and AI-assisted and agent-driven workflows, in partnership with Product owners
  • Own the most important end-to-end core workflows with Product partners, held to one bar: consistent, intuitive, self-service, and reliable on both the success and failure paths
  • Design trust and security in every flow: permissions, policies, sign-in, recovery and alerts, so admins act with confidence and employees stay secure without friction
  • Drive adoption and onboarding through in-product guidance, announcements and onboarding, measured by adoption of key workflows
  • Define a clear measure of user satisfaction that brings together NPS, product feedback, support and research, and the actions the team takes on it
  • Run research practice: discovery, usability testing and post-launch measurement that shape decisions before they are made and show what changed after
  • Hold quality and craft through design reviews, accessibility standards, and the strategy and governance of the design system, including how it carries through from Figma to code
  • Organize the team and its capacity, including design operations (documentation, standards and workflows) that help a distributed team move fast
  • Define how the whole team uses AI, from discovery and synthesis to prototyping in code, made practical and repeatable

What we're looking for

  • 10+ years in product design, including 4+ years leading design managers and multi-disciplinary teams in B2B SaaS
  • A track record of experience improvements with measurable results, such as adoption, task success, support volume or NPS
  • Experience shaping AI-powered or agent-driven product experiences, with a point of view on where they are heading
  • Experience designing complex, technical or security-critical products
  • Hands-on building and prototyping in code with AI tools such as Claude or Cursor, plus advanced Figma fluency: components, variables, tokens and design systems at scale
  • Clear, confident communication with senior leaders, including when the answer is no
  • Ownership of outcomes: hold design to outcomes for customers and the business, write down plans, make decisions with Product and Engineering partners, and follow the work through to adoption
  • A clear view of where experience is going: turn the shift toward AI assistants, agents and APIs into priorities for what to improve in the UI, what to make AI-assisted, and what to make headless, backed by data
  • Craft and a high bar: model the quality bar, give specific and candid feedback, and build standards and systems that keep quality consistent across a broad product
  • Hands-on with AI: in the last two to three years have changed how a design team works with AI, in practice, from prototyping in code to research synthesis
  • A leader who builds teams: grow designers and managers across locations, hire well, build shared ownership with Product and Engineering, and run critiques and skillshares

Nice to have

  • Experience leading distributed teams across time zones (US, India, & Turkey are where our designers are)
  • A portfolio with two or three case studies that show your work from problem to shipped outcome, including how you use AI
  • Identity, security, device management, IT or developer tools experience is a strong plus
