Job Brief: Reporting to the Head of Products, the Senior Product Designer drives end-to-end product design for web and mobile experiences that help thousands of learners learn, grow, and improve their lives.

You’ll own complex problem spaces, run your own research, and use data to make design decisions—partnering tightly with Product and Engineering to ship experiences that are intuitive, measurable, and durable.

We care deeply about building products that are not only functional, but also beautiful and intuitive—and we work in a highly collaborative, iterative environment (Agile/XP-style ways of working, strong teamwork, continuous improvement).

What you’ll do

Create and validate product experiences using flows, wireframes, prototypes, and high-fidelity UI for web and mobile.
Translate ambiguous problem statements into clear hypotheses, user journeys, and design solutions.
Clearly communicate your thinking—especially when solving complex problems—so teams can align and move fast.
Plan and run your own qualitative research (interviews, usability tests, concept tests) and synthesize findings into insights.
Work comfortably with quantitative signals (funnels, feature usage, cohorts, experiment results, support tickets) to inform decisions.
Use insights and data to guide design choices—and to evaluate whether what shipped actually worked.
Actively participate in product and business discussions: clarify outcomes, shape strategy, and pressure-test ideas.
Help define success metrics, trade-offs, and scope boundaries that support business goals without sacrificing UX.
Work closely with engineers from early discovery through implementation—making pragmatic choices, protecting UX intent, and respecting constraints.
Manage prioritization and trade-offs across time, scope, quality, and technical feasibility (and explain the “why” behind decisions).

Role Objectives:

Ship user-centered experiences that improve key outcomes.
Establish a reliable discovery loop: problem framing → research → design → measurement → iteration.
Increase team velocity by making design decisions crisp, traceable, and testable.
Strengthen cross-functional collaboration—especially Product/Engineering/Design alignment—so execution stays predictable.
Raise the design quality bar while staying realistic about delivery constraints and timelines.

What we’re looking for:

5+ years designing digital products with a strong portfolio showing end-to-end thinking (problem → process → outcome).
Strong UX fundamentals (information architecture, interaction design, usability, accessibility) and solid UI craft.
Comfortable running independent research and using data/insights to guide decisions (not “vibes-only design”).
Demonstrated ability to prioritize, manage trade-offs, and make high-leverage decisions under constraints.
Real experience partnering with engineers (handoff, implementation collaboration, iterative delivery).
Excellent communication: can explain complex decisions to both technical and non-technical stakeholders.
Proficiency in Figma (components, auto-layout, prototyping), and strong documentation habits.

Working Style

Ownership mentality: you don’t wait to be told—yet you collaborate early and often.
Comfortable in fast-moving teams; you bring structure without becoming process-police.
You use evidence (research + data) to argue your case, but you know when to decide and move.

Perks & Benefits:

Competitive salary and benefits package.
Flexible work environment with hybrid options.
The opportunity to make a real impact on the future of learning in the region.
Be part of a collaborative team working on cutting-edge educational solutions.
