Senior Product Designer - Mobile Focus

Senior Product Designer We're looking for a Senior Product Designer with a strong focus on mobile design, who's also comfortable working across web platforms and contributing to user research. In this role, you'll take ownership of complex, ambiguous problems end-to-end, help shape our mobile design strategy, and partner with cross-functional teams and leadership to design intuitive, user-centered experiences that solve real problems. You should bring deep expertise in mobile UI/UX principles, strong instincts for ambiguity, and the judgment to set direction rather than just execute against it. You're someone who can turn a loosely defined problem into a clear point of view, then rally a team—including other designers—around it. Responsibilities Own the end-to-end design process for complex, high-impact mobile initiatives, from problem framing through shipped experience. Set design direction and strategy for the mobile platform, partnering with product and engineering leadership on roadmap and prioritization. Mentor other designers on the team, providing feedback and helping raise the bar for craft, process, and rigor. Actively participate in design critiques and reviews at a high level, modeling best practices for the broader design team. Collaborate closely with product managers, developers, and fellow designers to align design work with business goals and technical feasibility. Embed with agile teams to deliver user experiences that are both beautiful and functional. Create wireframes, prototypes, and high-fidelity designs to communicate ideas and iterate quickly. Design seamless mobile (and web) experiences, ensuring consistency across platforms. Engage with users to understand needs, gather feedback, and validate design decisions. Plan and conduct user research, turning insights into actionable design outcomes. Partner with product management to shape requirements and translate ambiguous problems into compelling, user-centric designs. Collaborate with developers to test and validate that implemented features match design specifications and meet quality standards across iOS and Android platforms. Contribute at a high level to our design system's consistency, scalability, and speed—including setting standards other designers build on. Stay current on design trends, tools, accessibility guidelines, and other best practices, and help the team adopt AI to increase overall efficiency and quality. Requirements 5–7+ years of experience in product design or UX/UI roles, with a track record of increasing scope and ownership. Strong portfolio showcasing end-to-end mobile-first design work, including at least one example of leading a project from ambiguity to shipped, measurable outcomes. Demonstrated experience mentoring or leading other designers, formally or informally. Proficiency in Figma and modern prototyping tools, with fluency in AI-assisted design and dev workflows (e.g., Claude, GitHub Copilot, Git/GitHub, VS Code, Xcode, Android Studio). Deep understanding of user research methods, with experience designing and running research independently—not just applying others' findings. Experience designing responsive interfaces across multiple devices and platforms. Strong UX writing and communication skills, including comfort presenting design rationale to leadership and cross-functional stakeholders. Familiarity with native mobile UI frameworks (SwiftUI, Jetpack Compose). Familiarity with iOS (Human Interface Guidelines) and Android (Material Design). Nice to Have Experience contributing to or scaling a mobile design system across multiple platforms. Familiarity with designing AI-based experiences, including agentic workflows. Comfort using command-line tools and terminal basics. Awareness of mobile app development processes and constraints. Experience designing for GIS/map-centric platforms. Prior experience with audio, photo, or AR-driven UI/UX patterns—interfaces that go beyond the mobile screen. Experience influencing product strategy or roadmap decisions as a design partner, not just an executor. Basic understanding of front-end technologies (HTML/CSS/JS). Soft Skills Empathetic and user-driven; you design with people, not just pixels, in mind. Self-directed and comfortable setting your own priorities under ambiguity. Highly detail-oriented, with an eye for visual consistency and polish. Open to feedback and eager to grow—comfortable iterating quickly. Strong communicator who can explain design rationale clearly and concisely, including to leadership. Comfortable with candor—we value honest, constructive conversations. Assertive in your ideas but collaborative in your approach. A generous mentor—invested in raising the level of the whole design team, not just your own output. Other Ability to work effectively across multiple remote, cross-functional teams. Portfolio and case studies demonstrating your design process and the scope/impact of your ownership. English proficiency: B2–C1 level. DevSavant
