Let me tell you about the role

The Senior Product Designer is responsible for shaping complex product experiences that require a strong understanding of user needs, business objectives, and system dependencies. The role focuses on structuring end-to-end user journeys, translating research insights into practical design solutions, and supporting teams in navigating ambiguous problem spaces.

Experience design: User journeys, task flows, and interaction patterns are defined for complex product workflows. Service blueprints may be created to illustrate user interactions and supporting system processes.

Design execution and prototyping: Wireframes, prototypes, and high-fidelity interfaces are developed using established design systems and accessibility standards.

Cross-functional collaboration: Design solutions are developed in partnership with product and engineering teams to ensure alignment with product requirements and technical constraints.

Design facilitation and feedback: Workshops, feedback sessions, and collaborative discussions are facilitated to improve design outcomes and support shared understanding.

Design system contribution: Opportunities to strengthen design systems are identified through new or refined patterns that support consistency across products.

AI-assisted design exploration: AI-supported tools may be used for exploration, research synthesis, or documentation, with attention to accuracy, ethics, and inclusivity.
