The Role

You will move beyond passive execution to actively drive roadmapping and planning conversations.

  • Systems Thinker: Your profound understanding of design systems and experience aligning them with engineering workflows, such as Storybook, sets you apart.
  • Collaborative Leader: You thrive in a fast-paced environment— as we adapt and reorganize our teams, you remain a flexible ally to PMs and POs.

  • Tech-Forward: You are enthusiastic about leveraging Figma MCP and AI tools to elevate our UI/UX standards beyond conventional expectations.

Key Responsibilities

Maintain a brisk pace of output, providing deliverables within expected timelines while actively communicating potential risks and strategies for mitigation.
  • In-Depth Design Thinking & Research
    Act as an engaged problem solver who applies structure to unfamiliar, intricate, and ambiguous challenges. Establish clear requirements, make informed tradeoffs, and prioritize the most meaningful workstreams to ensure alignment with essential business and product objectives. Conduct and synthesise user, customer, business, and technical research to guide and justify every design choice.
  • Strategic Leadership & Project Coordination
    Manage and coordinate design initiatives within the UK team, ensuring that all outputs adhere to our rigorous standards for quality and strategic alignment. Define problems, investigate options, and articulate recommendations with solid reasoning and tradeoffs to propel projects forward. Collaborate closely with Product Managers and Product Owners to establish design direction and promote strategy across various domains. Transition from execution to lead roadmapping and planning discussions, serving as a pivotal voice in how we address challenges for our users.
