Job description

About the role

We are looking for a Senior Product Designer who can take work from early discovery to polished UI. You are comfortable switching between research, journey mapping, fast prototyping (including with modern tools), and high quality product design.

Our product sits in sustainability and carbon management. The topic comes with real conceptual and regulatory complexity. Part of the job is building a solid understanding of the space, from emissions data and reporting standards to supply chain and product level carbon accounting, and turning that complexity into clear, usable experiences. You will test, learn, and iterate with internal teams and external users.

You will play a central role in shaping the product experience and how design works day to day across the team. This is a good role for someone who likes ownership, responsibility, and influence, and who wants to help improve how design, product, and engineering work together as we scale. Over time, there is room to grow into stronger design leadership and stewardship of the overall experience.

Core objectives

End to end design execution

  • Move smoothly between research, prototyping, interaction design, and refined UI craft

  • Keep clarity and accuracy high in a complex domain

Exploration and prototyping with modern tools

  • Use tools (including AI where it helps) to explore options faster

  • Validate flows, logic, and user understanding in data heavy problem spaces

Stakeholder influence and alignment

  • Build strong working relationships with product and engineering

  • Drive alignment around experience quality and domain understanding

Design system and experience coherence

  • Evolve patterns and standards to keep experiences consistent across sustainability workflows

Future ready design practice

  • Help shape how our processes, tooling, and collaboration evolve as product development changes

Key responsibilities

  • Lead user research including interviews, journey mapping, and usability testing with internal and external users, then turn insights into clear product direction

  • Build a working understanding of carbon accounting, sustainability reporting, and related terminology, and reflect that knowledge in UX decisions

  • Work across different design modes:

    • Discovery and research

    • Rapid prototyping (including tool assisted approaches)

    • High fidelity execution in Figma

  • Contribute to the design system so domain specific workflows stay consistent and scalable

Stakeholder leadership and advocacy

  • Partner closely with product and engineering so design informs prioritization and delivery

  • Align stakeholders on experience goals, consistency expectations, and quality standards

  • Advocate for strong design practices within the design team and across the organization

  • Improve collaboration rituals and handoffs between design, product, and engineering

Job requirements

  • 5 to 7+ years designing complex SaaS or B2B products, ideally in data heavy or domain heavy environments

  • Strong generalist skills across research, prototyping, and polished UI

  • Expert in Figma and component based workflows

  • Interested in AI assisted design and fast prototyping, with good judgment on when to use it

  • Technically fluent: you understand basic CSS concepts, component behavior, and simple logic, and you can collaborate deeply with engineers

  • Comfortable presenting ideas, framing trade offs, and influencing stakeholders in cross functional teams

  • Curious about how design practice is changing and motivated to help build a design function that scales well
