About the role

We’re looking for a Senior Product Designer with deep expertise in user research and product design to shape experiences that truly resonate with users. In this role, you’ll drive both discovery and delivery — conducting research, validating ideas, and designing thoughtful, scalable interfaces for web and mobile platforms. You’ll partner with product managers, engineers, and other stakeholders to create intuitive experiences that solve real business and user problems.

This is an opportunity to contribute to the strategy, vision, and craft of a product with no true equivalent — and to do so alongside a team of talented, humble, and user-obsessed designers.

What You'll Do

  • Lead qualitative and quantitative user research initiatives to identify insights, validate hypotheses, and shape product direction

  • Collaborate cross-functionally to define product goals and translate them into intuitive, elegant user experiences

  • Design and deliver user flows, wireframes, and high-fidelity prototypes across platforms (web, iOS, Android)

  • Own and evolve the design process, from problem framing and discovery to execution and delivery

  • Influence strategic decisions with user insights, advocating for experience quality and long-term design value

  • Establish, maintain, and contribute to our design system and ensure brand and interaction consistency

  • Mentor and support other designers in applying user-centered practices and elevating design quality

  • Communicate design decisions clearly through storytelling, rationale, and research evidence

What We're Looking For

  • 5+ years of hands-on experience in product design, with a strong focus on user research

  • Deep understanding of UX research methodologies, usability testing, and data interpretation

  • Strong systems thinking and ability to distill complexity into simple, intuitive experiences

  • Proven track record designing cross-platform interfaces (web + native mobile: iOS/Android)

  • Experience designing for SaaS or B2B digital products is highly preferred

  • Excellent communication skills — able to influence decisions and align teams around user needs

  • Proficiency with design and prototyping tools like Figma, Sketch, or similar

  • Fluent in English, both written and spoken

You’ll Thrive Here If You Are…

  • Proactive, curious, and always looking to improve both products and processes

  • Comfortable working in fast-paced, iterative environments

  • Detail-oriented but flexible — knowing when to push pixels and when to move fast

  • A strong team player who shares knowledge, gives and receives feedback gracefully

  • Motivated by real user impact rather than just clean visuals

  • A lifelong learner who thrives on tackling complex problems

Show Us Your Craft

  • Please share a portfolio with detailed case studies that walk us through your process from insight to execution

  • Selected candidates will be invited to present their thinking through a hypothetical design challenge

What We Do

The Cloud NAS

LucidLink has reimagined the file system built for the cloud to provide a truly innovative alternative to today’s prevailing architectures. Engineered for enterprises seeking a scalable, reliable file service with best-in-class security and zero operational overhead, LucidLink revolutionizes the use of object storage for modern cloud-computing environments by transforming the cloud into a local storage tier.

LucidLink Filespaces cloud-native NAS solution is ideal for organizations that would like to take advantage of cloud storage economics and utilize it for applications, file systems, and high-performance workloads. Built-in software, running on the endpoint, delivered as SaaS, with no middleware and no appliance, virtual or physical. LucidLink leverages cloud-based storage with the functionality you expect from an on-premises hardware NAS – only better.

A Filespace is a shared global namespace that acts like any other high-performance network-attached storage (NAS) even though the data is hosted in the cloud. Designed to address the business needs around storing large data sets on and off-premise and accessing them over distance, distributed teams get secure, on-demand access to digital assets, and can collaborate on files, in the cloud, from anywhere.

LucidLink’s SaaS approach improves scalability, reliability, and data durability while enhancing team collaboration and productivity. Customers benefit from time, cost savings, tighter control over data storage, security, and device and sovereignty mandates.
