Avolution are hiring a

Senior Product Designer

Role Overview

We are hiring a Senior Product Designer to play a pivotal role in shaping the user experience of Avolution’s next-generation enterprise platform. This is not a traditional design role. You will be responsible for defining how complex enterprise architecture, data, and AI capabilities are translated into intuitive, high-impact user experiences – enabling both technical and non-technical users to make better decisions, faster. Working directly with the CPTO and the Product team, you will help establish design as a first-class discipline in a business undergoing significant product and technology transformation toward a cloud-native, AI-augmented platform.

Why This Role Matters

Avolution is evolving from a powerful but complex EA tool into:

  • A system of record + system of intelligence
  • A platform that democratizes enterprise architecture
  • A product where AI, analytics, and workflows are embedded into everyday decision-making

Design is central to this transformation. You will help answer the critical question: How do we make one of the most complex domains in enterprise software feel intuitive, guided, and indispensable?

Key Responsibilities

  2. Translate Strategy into Product Experience
    • Work directly with the CPTO to translate:
      • Product strategy
      • AI capabilities
      • Platform architecture into coherent, user-facing experiences
    • Ensure design supports key strategic goals:

      • Context-aware interfaces
  4. Lead UX for AI-Native Features
    • Design interactions for:
      • Conversational AI (chat assistant)
      • AI recommendations & insights
      • Natural language workflows
    • Ensure AI is:
      • Context-aware
      • Trustworthy
      • Embedded in workflows (not bolted on)
  5. Establish and Scale the Design System
    • Own and evolve a scalable design system:
      • Components
      • Patterns
      • Interaction models
    • Ensure consistency across:
      • Diagrams
      • Dashboards
      • Forms
      • AI interfaces
  6. Drive User-Centered Design
    • Lead user research and testing:
      • Interviews
      • Usability testing
      • Design validation
    • Apply insights from:
      • Personas
      • Jobs-to-be-done
      • Real user workflows
    • Ensure design decisions are grounded in actual user needs, not assumptions
  7. Collaborate Cross-Functionally
    • Partner closely with:
      • Product Management
      • Engineering (React / .NET teams)
      • Data / AI teams
    • Work alongside external partners while owning internal design direction
  8. Influence Product Direction
    • Act as a design leader, not just a contributor:
      • Challenge assumptions
      • Propose new interaction models
      • Shape roadmap decisions
