Job Level
About the role
- Lead the full product design lifecycle: Focus on optimizing the growth funnel (e.g., onboarding, paywalls, feature adoption, cross-sell motions), moving quickly from hypotheses to high-fidelity mockups and interactive prototypes.
- Design for experimentation: Work with Product and Engineering to frame design work as testable hypotheses and design multivariate tests (A/B/n) for measurable impact.
- Conduct and Synthesize Data: Deeply analyze quantitative data (funnel drop-offs, A/B test results) alongside qualitative user research to identify friction points and major growth opportunities.
- Drive Design Strategy for Growth: Influence the growth roadmap by proactively identifying and championing high-leverage design opportunities based on data analysis.
- Accelerated Iteration: Operate with a bias for speed and measurable impact, focusing on delivering Minimum Viable Tests (MVT) and optimizing designs rapidly based on performance.
Requirements
- 8+ years of professional product design experience, with a minimum of 3+ years specifically in a Product Growth, Conversion Rate Optimization (CRO), or highly metrics-driven B2B/SaaS environment.
- Portfolio Required: Portfolio must clearly demonstrate a user-centered design process applied to Growth challenges, including examples of:
- A/B testing and experimentation cycles.
- Measurable business outcomes (e.g., lift in conversion, activation rate, or retention).
- Rapid iteration and tight turnaround work.
- Data Fluency: Proven expertise in collaborating with analysts to translate funnel metrics and A/B test data into design solutions and design hypotheses. Experience with tools like Amplitude, Mixpanel, or Google Analytics is a plus.
- Expertise in Figma (or equivalent tools) for wireframing, prototyping, and preparing production-ready specs in a fast-paced setting.
- Demonstrated Leadership: Experience mentoring, coaching, and providing design direction to mid- and junior-level designers. Proven ability to help build a design team's skills and process.
- Deep understanding of interaction design principles, visual design, and information architecture, with the ability to maintain quality under pressure.
- Excellent communication and presentation skills, with a track record of successfully influencing cross-functional partners (especially Product and Analytics) using data and design rationale.
- Ability to balance strategic thinking (long-term impact) with hands-on execution (immediate optimization) in a high-speed, agile environment.
Benefits
- Flexible working hours
- Professional development opportunities
