About the role
The foundations are in place with a recent rebrand and evolved design system. The goal is to build a design practice that consistently shapes what the company builds, not just how it looks, and is known across the enterprise.
What you'll do
- Lead the design function by setting the vision, standards, and strategy for product design in alignment with strategic objectives.
- Manage, mentor, and develop a team of 6 product designers and 1 researcher, including owning hiring as the team scales.
- Push design into problem definition and roadmap-setting by partnering with Product, Engineering, and other cross-functional leadership.
- Identify where AI genuinely improves design work and turn it into practice and automation efforts.
- Work closely with Marketing's Creative team to ensure product experience and brand expression reinforce each other.
- Set ambitious timelines and operate with urgency to learn from products in customers’ hands.
What they're looking for
- 8+ years designing and shipping consumer-facing mobile products, ideally in fintech or complex domains.
- 5+ years managing designers with a track record of building teams and developing people.
- Experience operating at the leadership table, shaping roadmap and strategy alongside Product and Engineering peers.
- A portfolio demonstrating craft and outcome, showing user problems, decisions made, and business impact.
- Ability to use research and data to sharpen design judgment and gain signal in ambiguous environments.
- Excellent communication skills at the executive level, capable of making design arguments without jargon.
- Fluency in modern tooling, specifically Figma, and curiosity about AI in design workflows.
