We’re hiring a Lead Product Designer to lead end-to-end UX for a remote‑first HRTech B2B SaaS product. This is a player/coach role: you’ll drive hands‑on design for key initiatives while mentoring a small team and raising the bar on craft, research, and delivery.
What you’ll do
* Partner with Product Managers and Engineers in an Agile environment to ship high‑quality experiences
* Lead design thinking workshops, journey mapping, and problem framing
* Conduct customer interviews and usability testing (moderated/unmoderated) to validate solutions
* Create wireframes, flows, and prototypes (low‑to‑high fidelity) in Figma
* Improve in‑product guidance and clarity through UX writing (microcopy, onboarding, errors, empty states)
* Use Pendo and product signals to identify friction, test hypotheses, and measure impact
* Define and track outcomes via KPI construction (activation, adoption, time‑to‑value, task success, retention)
* Apply AI prototyping to accelerate ideation and explore intelligent workflow concepts
* Mentor a small team and run effective critiques; ensure strong design QA with engineering
* Manage external support when needed
What we’re looking for
* 6+ years in product/UX design, with strong B2B SaaS experience (HRTech a plus)
* Proven ability to design complex workflows (admin, permissions, data‑heavy UX, integrations)
* Experience designing AI‑powered features or assistant‑like experiences
* Strong research and synthesis skills (interviews + usability testing)
* Expert Figma proficiency (components, libraries, auto‑layout, prototyping)
* Experience with design systems and an eye for consistency and scalability
* Working knowledge of accessibility best practices (WCAG fundamentals)
* Experience mentoring designers and influencing cross‑functional partners
Nice to have
* HR personas/workflows (HR admin, manager, employee), compliance‑heavy UX, HRIS/ATS/payroll ecosystem
