Role summary
Set design direction across multiple products or a portfolio within Optum Insight. You will decide what is worth designing, not just how it should look or behave. You will operate as a force multiplier: the frameworks, standards and strategic positions you create will be adopted by other designers and shape decisions beyond your direct work.
Primary responsibilities
Set and own design strategy for a domain or portfolio, connecting design decisions to business outcomes such as adoption, retention, operational efficiency, quality, accuracy or revenue growth.
Shape undefined, high-ambiguity problems by identifying what matters, sequencing the bets and aligning partners before a single screen exists.
Create leverage that outlasts any one project, including principles with teeth, decision frameworks, cross-product patterns, standards and operating models that other teams adopt.
Partner with senior leaders across Product, Engineering, Research, Data, Operations and the business to influence roadmap direction and investment choices.




Resolve the hardest cross-team coherence problems where no single squad owns the full experience.
Define and uphold the craft and strategic bar across designers; coach senior and lead designers on framing, influence, storytelling and execution quality.
Connect user insight, product analytics, market context and business goals into transparent experience strategies and decision narratives.
Represent design in portfolio-level planning, governance and executive conversations with a clear point of view and practical trade-offs.
Required qualifications
13+ years of experience designing complex digital products, including a track record of setting direction across more than one product, team or platform.
A portfolio that demonstrates strategic influence, systems thinking and force multiplication, not only individual product execution.
Evidence that you created a framework, standard, operating model, product strategy or cross-product pattern th
