For over 10 years, Andela has connected its customers with top global, remote technical talent from over 135 countries with the majority residing in emerging markets like Africa and Latin America.\nAs one of the world’s largest talent marketplaces, Andela gives companies greater flexibility to quickly deploy qualified technologists. With talent highly skilled in advanced technologies to support Application Development, Artificial Intelligence, Cloud & DevOps, Data Engineering, and much more, customers experience 33% faster project delivery. The company’s exclusive AI-powered platform, Andela Talent Cloud, is the industry’s only unified platform managing the complete global talent lifecycle and enables customers to fill individual roles or engage fully managed teams up to 66% faster.\nAndela is on the precipice of two breakout industry transformations: one in staffing/hiring and the other in software development, both accelerated by generative AI.\nAre you an exceptional, hungry leader seasoned in scaling businesses through transformation and growth? Join us and change the world.\nJob Summary: \nAs the Staff Product Designer, you are a visionary leader who shapes how millions of people experience the future of work. You will tackle Andela’s most ambiguous product challenges, working across high-level business strategy and deep user empathy. You aren't just a \"maker\"; you are a \"shaper\" who defines the frameworks, logic, and standards that the rest of the design team follows.\nExceptional Leadership:\nAs an Andelan, you’ll serve as a role model for the rest of the company. Think about the feedback your peers typically give you - if it usually sounds like the below, we want to hear from you.\nLow ego, low drama, servant leader: You share credit, take blame. You like being wrong because it means someone else had an even better idea.\n\nOne team mentality: You break silos across teams. You put the company and mission first above your team alone.\n\nGreat listener, hungry for feedback: You’re always seeking to improve - our product, our business, yourself. You solicit diverse opinions and deeply listen.\n\nOwner, not renter: You see a problem, you fix it or find someone who will. The buck stops with you.\n\nPlayer-coach: You fly high (create strategy) AND low (know the details that matter). You roll up your sleeves and get scrappy. You do this proactively collaborating with your team while actively engaging in important details.\n\nBusiness problem solver: You’re not just a functional expert; you consistently get praise for approaching your function through the lens of solving business problems.\n\nKey Responsibilities:\nExperience Architecture: Lead the design of complex, multi-sided marketplace flows. You will be responsible for the \"big picture\" logic of our Talent Cloud, ensuring seamless transitions between client hiring needs and talent career growth.\n\nStrategic Partnership: Act as a peer to Product and Engineering. You will help define the product roadmap by identifying user-centric opportunities that align with Andela’s commercial goals.\n\nDesign Systems Governance: While you aren't writing the code, you are the \"Source of Truth\" for our design language. You will oversee the evolution of our component library to ensure accessibility, consistency, and a world-class aesthetic.\n\nData-Informed Innovation: Use qualitative research and quantitative data to validate your hypotheses. You should be comfortable navigating complex data dashboards to find the \"why\" behind user behavior.\n\nMentorship & Craft Excellence: Elevate the output of the design team through rigorous design reviews, workshops, and the introduction of new methodologies.\n\nDesign Mentorship: Act as a \"Force Multiplier.\" You will lead design sprints, conduct high-level critiques, and mentor Senior Designers to help them reach the next level of their careers.\n\nRequirements:\nExperience: 10+ years in Product Design, with a significant track record of delivering high-impact B2B, SaaS, or Marketplace products.\n\nSystems Thinker: You have a deep understanding of how design scales. You can think through edge cases, global localization, and complex state management without needing to see it in code first.\n\nCommunication: Mastery of the \"pitch.\" You can articulate the ROI of design to non-design stakeholders and build consensus across a global, async organization.\n\nTooling: Expert-level Figma skills, including advanced prototyping, auto-layout, and library management.\n\nProduct Sense: You think like a Product Manager. You understand trade-offs, technical constraints, and how to ship \"Minimum Viable Products\" (MVP) to learn fast.\n\nThe Stack: Experience of Figma paired with professional-grade proficiency in React.js, TypeScript, and CSS-in-JS (or Tailwind). \n\nAdditional Requirements:\nBachelor's degree in Business, Engineering, Computer Science, or related field; MBA or advanced degree preferred.\n\n3+ years in a marketplace, platform, or multi-sided network business model\n\n2+ years managing or mentoring direct reports.\n\nExperience leading cross-functional initiatives across Engineering, Operations, and commercial teams in a remote or distributed organization.\n\n#LI-REMOTE","description_format":"text","description_chars":5320,"description_truncated":false,"requirements":{"experience_years_min":10,"management_years_min":null,"team_size_min":null,"manages_managers":false,"education":{"level":"bachelor","optional":false},"security_clearance":false,"languages":[]},"benefits":[],"hiring_locations":[{"name":"United
