This role sits within a small, tight-knit design practice working dotted-line into a wider Human-Centred Design team, at a moment where the workstream is genuinely ambiguous and there’s real ownership on the table for the right person.\nThe role\nYou’ll operate as a sole designer within your workstream, working directly with product owners, engineers and subject matter experts rather than alongside other designers day to day. Dedicated researchers exist, but only in a consulting capacity, so a defining part of this role is owning your own tactical UX research end to end: planning, running and synthesising user testing and desktop research yourself, then feeding findings straight into your design decisions.\nThis is a genuinely ambiguous, fast-moving environment. You’ll be picking up new projects independently and proactively bringing your workstream into the wider design team, rather than waiting to be told what’s next. Process matters here: the team wants to see your thinking from low-fidelity exploration through to shipped, high-fidelity UI, with case studies that clearly link your process to specific aims, metrics and artifacts, not just how things turned out.\nWhat you’ll be doing Own end-to-end product design across mid-size and increasingly complex projects, from discovery through delivery\nPlan, run and synthesise your own user research and usability testing, with no dedicated researcher on this stream\nPartner directly with product owners, engineers and subject matter experts to translate ambiguous briefs into shippable, validated design decisions\nContribute to and evolve shared design standards and guidelines as your workstream scales\nCoach and give feedback to colleagues, supporting the wider maturity of the design practice What we’re looking for Senior product designer with genuine end-to-end ownership, from discovery through UX exploration to UI delivery\nComfortable running your own research without a dedicated researcher: usability testing, moderated and unmoderated sessions, desktop research, and turning findings into design decisions independently\nExperience defining and leading design work at pace within agile delivery, in ambiguous or fast-moving environments\nA portfolio that shows real process, not just outcomes, with clear aims, metrics and artifacts tied to specific case studies\nExperience in regulated, complex or financial services environments is a strong plus\nSome experience coaching or mentoring colleagues *Rates depend on experience and client requirements","description_format":"text","description_chars":2749,"description_truncated":false,"requirements":{"experience_years_min":null,"management_years_min":null,"team_size_min":null,"manages_managers":false,"education":null,"security_clearance":false,"languages":[]},"benefits":[],"hiring_locations":[{"name":"United Kingdom","iso":"GB","kind":"country"}],"hiring_excludes":[],"relocation_offered":false,"industries":[],"lifecycle":[{"event":"open","at":"2026-09-29T21:51:31Z"}],"visa":[],"liveness":{"score":14,"band":"cold","label":"Long shot","p_open":0.4,"p_active":0.358,"p_room":1,"age_days":25,"expected_fill_days":146,"reasons":["conf:559","agency","evergreen","urgency","velocity","win:early","comp:brand"],"computed_at":"2026-10-23T05:54:15Z"},"pay":{"stated_usd_annual":92605,"is_top_pay":false},"html_url":"https://alion.io/job/salt-senior-product-designer","json_url":"https://alion.io/job/salt-senior-product-designer.json","meta":{"generated_at":"2026-10-24T04:18:00Z","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":6753,"day_limit":null,"remaining_today":null,"minute_limit":300,"resets_at":"2026-10-25T00:00:00Z"}},"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":1935342},"rest":"https://alion.io/mcp/rest/get_company?id=1935342"},"human":"https://alion.io/catalog?offer=company.slices&for=job%2Fsalt-senior-product-designer"},{"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%2Fsalt-senior-product-designer"},{"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%2Fsalt-senior-product-designer"},{"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/salt-senior-product-designer\", \"note\": \"what you need it for\"}"},"human":"https://alion.io/catalog?offer=company.verify&for=job%2Fsalt-senior-product-designer"}]}
