Hiring: Design Lead (Owns Website + Product)
Location: Teynampet, Chennai
Exp: 5+ years
Position Overview:
We are looking for a Design Lead / Head of Design to own UX strategy, product definition, and implementation across our SaaS platform. This is a leadership role for someone who can think like a product owner, execute with engineering, and build a strong design team.
You will work directly with the CEO and business stakeholders, lead a team of designers, and ensure that design decisions translate into clear, buildable, high-impact product experiences.
Key Responsibilities
- Own end-to-end UX and product experience across the platform
- Translate business goals into clear problem statements, UX strategy, and execution plans
- Lead the UX phase of the product lifecycle — discovery, framing, prioritization, and validation
- Ensure design solutions are implementation-ready and shipped correctly
- Partner closely with Engineering on feasibility, trade-offs, sprint planning, and delivery
- Review builds and guide teams to ensure UX intent is met
- This role is accountable for shipping the right experience, not just producing designs.
Design Leadership & Team Management
- Build, mentor, and manage a team of designers
- Set design standards, workflows, and quality benchmarks
- Run design reviews, critiques, and planning sessions
- Balance hands-on work with leadership responsibilities
Required Skills & Experience
- 5+ years of experience in UX / Product Experience design for SaaS products
- Experience with B2B or data-heavy SaaS platforms
- Strong track record of driving product implementation, not just design output
- Experience working directly with CEOs, founders, or senior leadership
- Deep understanding of user flows, interaction design, and system thinking
- Comfortable owning decisions in a PM-less workplace
- Proven experience leading and managing design teams.
Nice to Have
- Familiarity with agile delivery and sprint execution
- Ability to influence without authority across teams
- Possesses a design degree from a Tier 1 university.
We Believe In
- Innovation First - We ship fast, learn from real data, improve, and ship better. Experiments matter more than assumptions.
- Team Over Individual - We believe in shared ownership, strong peer reviews, and zero silos. Growth happens together.
- Continuous Learning - Search, AI, and the web evolve constantly — and so do we. Curiosity and learning are part of the job.
- Making a Difference - We focus on work that creates meaningful impact through better discoverability, relevance, and user experience.
What We Promise
- Work That Matters - Your work will directly impact real users, organic growth, and product visibility.
- Growth Opportunities - You’ll get the freedom to experiment, the tools to execute, and the support to tackle challenging problems.
- Supportive Team Culture - You’ll work with people who value ownership, clarity, and strong collaboration — not micromanagement.
- Sustainable Pace - We believe in long-term impact, high-quality execution, and maintaining a healthy work-life balance.
