Role: Lead Product Designer
Experience: 6+ years
Location: Navi Mumbai (Seawoods)
Work Mode: On-site
Employment Type: Full-time
Role Overview:
We're looking for a Lead Product Designer who can stay hands-on while raising how design works across the team. You'll own product and UX/UI direction on complex, multi-platform projects end to end, from problem framing through polished delivery, while reviewing and mentoring other designers so the whole team ships faster and with more confidence.
You'll also own a piece of our design infrastructure, whether that's the design system, documentation standards, or critique culture, and you'll be the person clients and internal stakeholders trust to explain the "why" behind a decision. AI sits inside how you work day to day: you'll use it to accelerate research, critique, and design operations, and you'll help other designers do the same without cutting corners on quality.
What You Will Own:
- Lead product and UX/UI work from problem framing through delivery on complex projects, translating user, business, and client needs into flows, wireframes, prototypes, and polished interfaces across web and mobile.
- Review, mentor, and unblock other designers, running critiques that raise team quality, confidence, and speed rather than just catching errors.
- Own or improve a system-level asset, such as the design system, documentation, QA standards, file hygiene, or a recurring design ritual, and be accountable for it getting measurably better.
- Use feedback, research inputs, and usability thinking to pressure-test design decisions before they ship.
- Present work to clients and internal stakeholders with clarity and a strong rationale, including when the recommendation is unpopular.
- Run first-pass research synthesis and heuristic audits with AI, then validate the output against real transcripts and sessions before it shapes a design decision.
- Use AI to accelerate documentation and critique prep, drafting design-system notes, rationale write-ups, and review agendas so more of the team's time goes to the actual design conversation.
- Balance multiple live projects and designers' questions without becoming the bottleneck for either.
How AI Shows Up in This Role:
- Synthesizing first-pass themes from user research transcripts and support tickets before validating them against the raw sessions.
- Running a first-pass heuristic or UX audit on a flow, then using it as a starting point for your own review, not a substitute for it.
- Generating rapid wireframe and flow variants to explore a problem space before committing a direction to high fidelity.
- Drafting design-system documentation, component rationale, and handoff notes so engineering gets clearer specs faster.
- Building critique prompts and review checklists that other designers can reuse, turning a one-off AI trick into a team habit.
What Success Looks Like in Your First 90 Days:
- You independently own design direction on live projects without needing constant rescue.
- Other designers are visibly using your feedback, structure, or standards to work faster and with more confidence.
- One part of the design system, documentation, or QA workflow is noticeably stronger because of a contribution you made.
- Your design files, handoff clarity, and documentation make collaboration smoother across design, product, and engineering.
Clients and stakeholders trust your communication and the rationale behind your calls. - You've demonstrated at least one repeatable AI-assisted workflow that improves speed without reducing design quality, and can show a teammate how to run it.
Who You Are:
- You'd rather fix the root cause than patch the symptom.
- You give feedback people can actually act on.
- You stay calm and clear when a client pushes back.
- You notice when a process is quietly wasting everyone's time.
Requirements
What You Bring:
- 6+ years of relevant UX/UI or product design experience.
- Direct experience reviewing or mentoring other designers.
- Experience with client-facing or stakeholder-facing work.
- Strong UX depth across flows, wireframes, prototyping, interface design, and handoff.
- Evidence of design-system ownership, scalable component thinking, or process improvement.
- Experience designing complex digital products across web and/or mobile platforms.
- A strong portfolio with at least two detailed case studies relevant to complex digital products.
- Advanced Figma capability, including components, auto layout, design systems, prototyping, and clean file structure.
- You design AI-assisted workflows for your own craft, know where the tools break down, and raise the bar for how the team uses them.
Nice to Have:
- Experience across SaaS, enterprise, fintech, BFSI, or multi-role products.
- Motion or prototyping depth.
- Experience designing or documenting an AI-assisted workflow that other designers adopted, not just used yourself.
- Experience contributing to team rituals, critique culture, or quality review systems.
Education: Bachelor's degree in any discipline. Relevant work experience and practical capability will be valued more than academic specialisation.
Interview Process:
1. Application and candidate assessment
2. Recruiter qualification call
3. One-way video interview
4. L1 live task interview (30 minutes)
5. L2 hiring-manager interview
6. L3 founder / leadership round
