The Brief:
We’re building the future of home energy from solar panels and EVs to batteries and AI-powered optimisation for millions of consumers.
This is a chance to lead design for a product suite that empowers consumers and energy companies to manage and optimise energy in the home.
You’ll shape everything from a beautifully simple consumer app to tools and APIs for energy providers all with the goal of making home electrification effortless.
You’re inheriting a market leading product with strong design legacy and the freedom to evolve it.
What we're hiring for:
* Design Leader with strong IC craft

* Product-minded and outcome-focused
> Someone who challenges briefs and works closely with PMs and engineers to shape solutions, not just design UI's
* Thrives in ambiguity
> The roadmap and future team structure are still evolving. We need someone adaptable who thrives without rigid processes, and can play a key role in driving the new direction as we enter another period of high growth
What you’ll be doing:
* Own design for our full product ecosystem; B2B2C
* Lead discovery and definition of major new product lines
* Manage and mentor designers, championing their growth
* Shape our design principles, design systems, and accessibility practice
* Work closely with SVP Product, CTO and broader leadership team
* Represent design across the business, with customers and in hiring
We’d love to hear from you if you:
* Are a seasoned design leader across UX, UI, research and content
* Have taken products from concept to scale (ideally in both B2B and B2C settings)
* Care deeply about usability, systems, and solving real user problems
* Love hands-on work in Figma and driving strategic thinking
* Have built and led high-performing design teams in startups or scale-ups
