Senior Product Designer

Design Citizen is a human-centered talent management firm focused on creating innovative business solutions through design. They are seeking a Senior Product Designer to own the design process across core product areas, collaborating closely with engineers and data scientists to create clear and usable experiences for technical users.

Responsibilities:

• You'll own design end-to-end across core product areas — from the first conversation about a problem to shipped, polished UI
• That means defining requirements alongside engineers, untangling complex configuration flows, and making fast, well-reasoned decisions without a PM to hand things off to
• You'll work in a squad model with engineers and data scientists, contribute to a growing design system and component library in Figma, and help establish the interaction patterns that make a dense, evolving product feel coherent
• You'll present your thinking clearly, defend your decisions with rationale, and know when to push for the ideal solution and when to ship and iterate

Requirements:

• 6+ years of product design with a portfolio that shows you can handle complex, technical, or layered UI — not just consumer or mobile work
• Demonstrated 0→1 experience with shipped proof. We want to see what you built, not just what you explored
• Strong visual design bar and the ability to turn dense, multi-state workflows into experiences that feel clear and learnable
• Comfort designing for technical users — developers, data scientists, power users who will notice when something doesn't make sense
• Experience with dashboards, data models, permissions systems, configuration-heavy flows, or multi-step technical UI
• Fast, structured communication. You ask good questions early, flag blockers clearly, and don't wait to be told what to do next
• Systems thinking that supports delivery — you understand component logic and contribute to consistency without making systems the end goal
• High autonomy and a strong POV. You can propose alternatives when pushed back on and hold your ground when it matters
