Lead AI Design Technologist

Job Description

The Role

This is a senior individual contributor opportunity for a seasoned product designer who is equally comfortable owning complex design challenges as they are elevating the people around them. You’ll define, design, and deliver seamless product experiences within a dedicated product area, working closely with Product and Engineering on mid-to-large scale initiatives.

This is not a people manager role, but it is a leadership role. You’ll mentor and coach other designers, contribute to design vision and direction, and help raise the bar for how the wider team works, through critique, knowledge sharing, better processes, and leading by example.

What You’ll Do

Design Practice & Craft

• Work with design leadership to shape the product design vision and ensure consistency and quality of execution within your product area
• Own end-to-end design across complex, systemic initiatives – from problem framing through to detailed interaction design and delivery
• Create wireframes, prototypes, visual layouts, and detailed interaction specifications that balance user needs, business strategy, and technical constraints
• Design for accessibility from the ground up, not as an afterthought
• Collaborate closely with other designers across the team, contributing to critique and shared ways of working

Research & Insight

• Identify research opportunities and partner with researchers to plan and conduct user research and usability testing
• Synthesise customer insights and data to make evidence based design decisions and inform product direction
• Contribute to a deep understanding of customer needs, pain points, and behaviours within your product area

Cross-functional Collaboration

• Build strong working relationships with Product Managers and Engineering Leads, influencing prioritisation and roadmap decisions
• Facilitate cross-functional workshops to align teams around key decisions at the right moments in the process
• Collaborate with developers during sprints for design QA and hands-on problem solving as issues arise

Leadership & Mentorship

• Mentor and coach designers in your team through critique, feedback, and knowledge sharing
• Contribute to the team’s professional development – through sessions, programmes, or simply modelling excellent design thinking
• Help define and improve design processes that can be implemented across the wider team
• Partner with Leads, Principals, and Design Leadership to continuously improve how the design function operates
