Lead Product Designer, Design Systems

Position Summary

We’re looking for a Lead Product Designer to drive the evolution of Genesis, our Design System, and shape the experience and standards that empower product teams across our platform. This is a hands-on, high-impact role that combines visual design excellence with deep systems thinking, strong technical intuition, and a future-forward mindset around AI and automation in design.

You’ll lead the design strategy, component architecture, documentation quality, and adoption efforts for Genesis across web, native mobile, and server-driven UI (SDUI) environments. You’ll collaborate with engineers, designers, and product leaders to ensure our design system is scalable, cohesive, and accelerates high-quality product delivery.

If you’re passionate about creating the connective tissue across platforms, care deeply about accessibility and visual consistency, and are energized by the emerging intersection of design systems and AI, this role is for you.

In this role, you will:

• Own the vision and roadmap for our design system and component libraries in collaboration with product and engineering.
• Design and maintain scalable, accessible, and visually harmonious components and UX patterns across platforms (Web, iOS, Android, SDUI).
• Lead system audits and evolve foundational tokens (e.g., color, type, spacing), interaction patterns, and contribution guidelines.
• Partner with engineering to ensure design-system components are robust, performant, and easy to implement.
• Guide and mentor other designers contributing to or consuming the system, elevating their use of design systems in product work.
• Shape and enforce standards for quality and documentation, ensuring Genesis is usable and adopted widely.
• Explore and prototype ways AI can enhance design system workflows, from component generation to documentation automation.
• Evangelize design systems across the company, building relationships with product teams and advocating for consistency, reuse, and platform thinking.

About You:

• 6+ years of Product Design experience
• 2+ years focused specifically on design systems, including component architecture and cross-functional scaling
• Expert-level Figma experience, including building complex components, token structures, and design system best practices
• Strong interaction and visual design skills, with an eye for craft, clarity, and consistency
• Strong technical fluency, comfortable working with engineers, reading and writing code, and understanding implementation trade-offs
• Deep understanding of accessibility principles (WCAG), usability heuristics, and platform-specific conventions
• Proactive and practical, values progress over perfection
• Curious about emerging technologies and have explored or applied AI in design or system workflows
• Experience working in a collaborative, cross-functional product development environment
• Comfortable working independently and owning your space, but also collaborative and supportive of others
