This is a senior, horizontal role that sits just below the leadership tier and carries genuine influence over how our product is structured and how our design org thinks.</span></p> <p><span style="font-size: 10pt;">Today, much of our structural UX expertise lives in one place at the leadership level. This role exists to scale that expertise across every product swimlane — shifting the team from aesthetic-first to architecture-first design thinking, where great aesthetics are the <em>result</em> of sound structure, not a substitute for it. You'll also be the structural foundation our AI product work builds on, ensuring intelligent product experiences sit on top of a clean, scalable UX layer rather than inheriting structural debt.</span></p> <p><span style="font-size: 10pt;">This is the kind of work that quietly determines whether a product feels effortless or exhausting — and whether customers stay. If you want to be the person who sets and holds that bar across an entire platform, this is your seat.</span></p> <p><span style="font-size: 10pt;"><strong>What You'll Do:</strong></span></p> <ul> <li style="font-size: 10pt;"><span style="font-size: 10pt;"><strong>Own information architecture across all surfaces.</strong> Maintain a coherent IA across new and legacy platform areas. Audit existing structures, find the fracture points, and resolve them with a long-term foundation in mind.</span></li> <li style="font-size: 10pt;"><span style="font-size: 10pt;"><strong>Set and carry cross-swimlane UX standards.</strong> Operate horizontally across every product design swimlane, ensuring structural UX thinking is applied consistently — everywhere the product lives, not just where attention happens to land.</span></li> <li style="font-size: 10pt;"><span style="font-size: 10pt;"><strong>Be the quality checkpoint for prototypes.</strong> Review prototypes across product areas as a structural-integrity gate, so work moves forward faster and with confidence — and nothing ships with structural debt baked in.</span></li> <li style="font-size: 10pt;"><span style="font-size: 10pt;"><strong>Champion a blueprint-first design motion.</strong> As the org adopts a blueprint-first approach (defining the <em>what</em> and <em>how</em> in low fidelity before any high-fidelity layer), you'll be the keeper of the bar — ensuring every output meets our UX, IA, and best-practice standards.</span></li> <li style="font-size: 10pt;"><span style="font-size: 10pt;"><strong>Elevate the design practice.</strong> Coach and model what strong structural thinking looks like, leveling up the team so it builds things right from the start rather than requiring correction after the fact.</span></li> <li style="font-size: 10pt;"><span style="font-size: 10pt;"><strong>Build the UX foundation for AI products.</strong> Partner closely with the AI product team to ensure the UX layer is structured, scalable, and ready to support intelligent product experiences.</span></li> <li style="font-size: 10pt;"><span style="font-size: 10pt;"><strong>Hold platform integrity — old and new.</strong> Maintain the standard across the current platform and future builds, progressively bringing legacy areas up to standard.</span></li> <li style="font-size: 10pt;"><span style="font-size: 10pt;"><strong>Transfer knowledge and level the team.</strong> Spread UX architecture thinking throughout the design org, building a team that constructs correctly from the start.</span></li> </ul> <p><span style="font-size: 10pt;"><strong>What You'll Bring:</strong></span></p> <ul> <li style="font-size: 10pt;"><span style="font-size: 10pt;">8+ years of hands-on and/or managerial <strong>UX experience</strong> with deep, demonstrated expertise in <strong>information architecture</strong> and <strong>structural/systems-level SaaS design</strong>.</span></li> <li style="font-size: 10pt;"><span style="font-size: 10pt;">A track record of owning IA across compl
