We're looking for a design leader with strong product and design craft who can set the vision, raise the quality bar, and guide the team toward creating simpler, more intuitive experiences for complex enterprise products.\nYou'll lead an established team of 8-9 product designers while staying closely involved in product strategy, design direction, interaction design, visual design, and design quality.\nOur platform helps global businesses solve complex planning and decision-making problems. Your challenge will be to make those experiences significantly simpler, more intuitive, and more user-centric - while helping define how traditional product workflows and emerging agentic experiences come together.\nIf you're passionate about design craft, thrive in complex product environments, and enjoy building both great products and high-performing design teams, we'd love to meet you.\nWhat you'll own\nYou'll be responsible for shaping the product design vision and raising the overall quality of design across the platform.\nSome of the things you'll work on include:\nDefine and communicate the long-term vision for product design across the platform.\n\nPartner closely with Product and Engineering to solve complex customer problems and translate business needs into intuitive product experiences.\n\nOwn the design function, set a high bar for design quality, and lead the redesign of key product experiences, making complex workflows simpler, clearer, and easier to use.\n\nEstablish a strong user-centric approach to designing complex enterprise workflows.\n\nHelp define how traditional product workflows and emerging agentic and conversational experiences come together in the product.\n\nStay closely connected to the work by shaping critical user journeys, reviewing design work, providing thoughtful feedback, and setting a high bar for design craft.\n\nBuild and evolve scalable design systems and interaction patterns that improve consistency and accelerate product development.\n\nCoach and mentor designers through design critiques, feedback, and collaborative problem-solving.\n\nBuild a strong design culture centred around customer empathy, design craft, experimentation, and continuous improvement.\n\nPartner with leadership and cross-functional stakeholders to influence product strategy and shape the future direction of the platform.\n\nWhat we're looking for\nWe're looking for someone who enjoys building products as much as building teams. You'll probably be a great fit if you:\nHave 8 - 10 years of product design experience, with flexibility for exceptional candidates outside this range based on the quality of their experience.\n\nHave built and shipped complex B2B or enterprise SaaS products used by business customers at scale.\n\nAre a strong full-stack product designer with expertise across UX, interaction design, visual design, and design systems.\n\nHave exceptionally high standards for design quality, visual hierarchy, interaction design, and attention to detail.\n\nHave recent hands-on product design experience and can credibly engage with design work, critique output, and guide teams toward a higher quality bar.\n\nHave experience leading and mentoring high-performing product design teams.\n\nCan simplify complicated enterprise workflows into experiences that customers genuinely enjoy using.\n\nKnow how to balance customer needs, business goals, and technical constraints when making design decisions.\n\nHave a strong understanding of emerging AI, agentic, and conversational interfaces, and are excited about rethinking how users interact with complex products.\n\nEnjoy working closely with Product Managers and Engineers throughout the product development process.\n\nUse research, customer feedback, and product data to inform design decisions.\n\nAre ambitious, curious, and modern in your approach to product design, with a strong point of view on where digital product experiences are heading.\n\nExperience designing planning, decision-making, or other complex enterprise workflows is a plus.\n\nWhy this role is exciting?\nThis is an opportunity to shape the future of product design at a company solving some of the most complex problems faced by global enterprises.\nYou'll have the opportunity to raise the design bar across an established product design team, influence product strategy, and simplify experiences that businesses rely on every day.\nYou'll also help shape how the next generation of enterprise software works - including how traditional workflows and emerging agentic and conversational experiences come together.\nYou'll work closely with experienced Product and Engineering teams, collaborate with senior leadership, and have the autonomy to define what great product design looks like across the organisation.\nMost importantly, this is a role where your design thinking, craft, and vision will have a direct impact on the product and the team building it.","description_format":"text","description_chars":5114,"description_truncated":false,"requirements":{"experience_years_min":8,"management_years_min":null,"team_size_min":null,"manages_managers":false,"education":null,"security_clearance":false,"languages":[]},"benefits":[],"hiring_locations":[],"hiring_excludes":[],"relocation_offered":false,"industries":[],"lifecycle":[{"event":"open","at":"2026-09-15T13:32:40Z"}],"visa":[],"liveness":{"score":12,"band":"cold","label":"Long shot","p_open":1,"p_active":0.345,"p_room":0.35,"age_days":53,"expected_fill_days":23,"reasons":["conf:3","agency","win:tail"],"computed_at":"2026-10-17T05:46:00Z"},"pay":null,"html_url":"https://alion.io/job/beinguser-o9-solutions-design-director","json_url":"https://alion.io/job/beinguser-o9-solutions-design-director.json","meta":{"generated_at":"2026-10-18T02:10:14Z","cache_seconds":300,"methodology":"https://alion.io/methodology","terms":"https://alion.io/terms","contact":"https://alion.io/contact","api":"https://alion.io/developers","about":"Alion is a live layer of people, companies and AI agents: who they are, whether they are real and active right now, what they do and how to work with them, readable by people and by agents and paid per call.","catalog":"https://alion.io/catalog.json","usage":{"tier":"crawler_verified","counted_by":"address","units_charged":1,"used_today":3523,"day_limit":null,"remaining_today":null,"minute_limit":300,"resets_at":"2026-10-19T00:00:00Z"}},"offers":[{"id":"company.slices","title":"One company in depth, by slice","status":"live","price":{"credits":0.02,"usd":0.002,"plus_per_slice":{"credits":0.05,"usd":0.005}},"unit":"per company, plus each slice with data","note":"the employer in depth","call":{"mcp_tool":"get_company","arguments":{"id":670155},"rest":"https://alion.io/mcp/rest/get_company?id=670155"},"human":"https://alion.io/catalog?offer=company.slices&for=job%2Fbeinguser-o9-solutions-design-director"},{"id":"market.stats","title":"A market slice: pay, demand and time to fill","status":"live","price":{"credits":1,"usd":0.1},"unit":"per slice","note":"pay, demand and time to fill for this role and place","call":{"mcp_tool":"market_stats"},"human":"https://alion.io/catalog?offer=market.stats&for=job%2Fbeinguser-o9-solutions-design-director"},{"id":"job.search","title":"Open jobs by role, technology, place, pay and visa","status":"live","price":{"credits":0.02,"usd":0.002},"unit":"per posting in a list","note":"similar open postings","call":{"mcp_tool":"search_jobs"},"human":"https://alion.io/catalog?offer=job.search&for=job%2Fbeinguser-o9-solutions-design-director"},{"id":"company.verify","title":"Is this company real and active right now","status":"pilot","price":null,"unit":"per company","request":{"url":"https://alion.io/catalog/request","method":"POST","body":"{\"offer\": \"company.verify\", \"for\": \"job/beinguser-o9-solutions-design-director\", \"note\": \"what you need it for\"}"},"human":"https://alion.io/catalog?offer=company.verify&for=job%2Fbeinguser-o9-solutions-design-director"}]}
