- Mentoring, guiding, and inspiring a team of product designers, fostering a culture of creativity, collaboration, and continuous improvement.
- Working with other members of product leadership to design processes that integrate product management, design, and engineering as part of the SDLC.
- Facilitating workshops and design reviews with stakeholders, driving alignment across teams and departments.
- Leading the creation of intuitive, visually compelling, and functional designs for web and mobile platforms.
- Ensuring all designs meet accessibility, responsiveness, and scalability standards.
- Staying up-to-date on industry trends, tools, and best practices, incorporating new insights into the design process.
- Advocating for user-centered design and the value of design as a key driver of business success.
Required Qualifications
- 10+ years of experience in product design, with a strong portfolio demonstrating innovative and impactful design solutions.
- Proven leadership experience managing and mentoring design teams.
- Expert level in working with an in-house created design system that was executed consistently across design files and code bases.
- History of designing scalable user research and usability processes.
- Considerable experience working with Figma.
- Strong communication skills with the ability to articulate design decisions to both technical and non-technical audiences.
Preferred Qualifications
- Experience in SaaS, B2B, or marketplace product environments.
- Proficiency in working with data and product analytics tools to deliver design insights.
- Proficiency in UX writing and content strategy.
Compensation, Benefits & Perks
- Highly competitive salary commensurate with experience and contribution.
- Opportunity to participate in ownership of a rapidly growing company through our employee stock option plan.
- Comprehensive 100% employer-paid health & dental premiums and a Health/Personal Spending Account for Canadian employees. (An employer-subsidized benefits program is available for US-based team members).
- If you are based in Vancouver, enjoy a dedicated desk in our Vancouver, BC HQ, in the heart of downtown, with a fridge stocked with healthy snacks and drinks, an onsite gym, and a gorgeous rooftop amenity.
- Enjoy a $20-per-day commuter benefit for every day you work in our Vancouver HQ.
- An engaging social calendar, including bi-weekly catered lunches, bi-weekly "Friday bar," team workouts, annual summer party, and holiday party, two "onsite" all-team retreats each year, semi-annual team-building events, and Hiive Women’s Network events.
- Significant opportunities for growth into team leadership and management roles.
