About the role

Senior Product Designer

Location: Remote (within the U.S.)

Compensation: $150,000 - $170,000 + Outstanding Benefits

Position Overview: We're partnering with a mission-driven, membership-based organization seeking a Senior Program Director, Product Design to lead the strategy, design, and execution of consumer-facing digital experiences. This is a highly visible player-coach role for a hands-on Product Design leader who can operate across the full design lifecycle, from member journey strategy and Service Design through UX, design systems, high-fidelity UI, and product delivery. The successful candidate will help shape product direction, establish design standards, partner closely with Product and Engineering, and create experiences that drive meaningful engagement, retention, and impact for members. This is not a large people-management role. We're looking for someone who enjoys being both strategic and hands-on, mentoring a small team while remaining actively involved in the UI/UX design work.

Required Experience: We're specifically seeking a Product Design leader who brings experience across all or most of the following areas:

Product Design experience within membership-based, nonprofit, advocacy, social impact, community-focused, or mission-driven organizations
Strong consumer-facing (B2C) product design experience
Demonstrated Service Design expertise, including customer/member journey mapping, service blueprinting, and omnichannel experiences
Experience growing, engaging, and retaining members, customers, subscribers, or communities through digital products
Ability to own work from strategy and discovery through UX, design systems, hands-on high-fidelity UI design, implementation, and delivery. This role requires active design execution, not solely strategy, research, or design leadership
Strong Figma expertise, including design systems, component libraries, and interaction patterns
Deep understanding of user research, experimentation, analytics, and customer insights
Experience building or evolving design standards, governance, and design systems
Ability to balance strategic leadership with hands-on execution in a lean, fast-moving environment
Experience thoughtfully incorporating AI tools into the design process to accelerate workflows, research, prototyping, and collaboration

What Success Looks Like:

Defining product and member experience strategy across multiple digital products
Creating seamless member journeys across products, channels, and touchpoints
Leading Service Design initiatives that connect digital and non-digital experiences
Building and evolving scalable design systems and governance practices
Creating and communicating high-fidelity designs in Figma
Influencing product roadmaps and strategic decision-making
Partnering with Product, Engineering, Marketing, and leadership teams
Mentoring design resources while remaining actively involved in execution

Before you apply

Applying takes about a minute. These four things decide how fast it moves after that.

Your profile is current

It's what we read first. Occupations, seniority and locations matter more than a long history.

Two examples you can talk through

Not a portfolio — just two pieces of work where you can explain the decisions and what you'd change.

A number in mind

What you're on now and what would make you move. We negotiate better when we know both.

Your notice period

Employers plan around it, and it's the question that stalls offers most often.

Once you apply, someone reads it and calls you before anything reaches the employer — usually within two working days.
