Director of Product Design

About This Role

This role is for a Director of Product Design who will lead product design strategy across client engagements and internal initiatives at Human Agency, while also remaining deeply hands-on in the design and shipping processes.

Responsibilities

• Define and evolve product design vision across client and internal products, ensuring alignment with user needs, business goals, and technical realities.
• Partner with leadership, engineering, and strategy to shape product roadmaps, prioritize opportunities, and guide tradeoffs.
• Translate ambiguous problems into clear product concepts, flows, and experiences that can ship and evolve.
• Apply strong typographic systems, color theory, and visual hierarchy to create interfaces that are not only beautiful, but readable, accessible, and scalable.
• Evolve and govern visual systems that balance brand expression with product consistency and long-term maintainability.
• Design, build, and iterate product and marketing experiences, translating product requirements and design systems into high-quality, responsive implementations.
• Own the quality of shipped web experiences — from interaction details and performance to accessibility and responsiveness.
• Use Figma and Webflow as a rapid prototyping and production tool to test product narratives, onboarding flows, and go-to-market experiences.
• Lead through collaboration, guiding and supporting other designers and contractors as needed, setting direction while staying actively involved in execution.
• Design AI-enabled product experiences that are transparent, usable, and grounded in real user workflows and leverage generative AI tools to accelerate design exploration.

Requirements

• Significant experience designing digital products for web and/or mobile
• Experience owning product design across discovery, definition, delivery, and iteration phases
• Strong background in UX, interaction design, and visual systems
• Experience collaborating closely with engineering and product stakeholders
• Hands-on experience building or significantly contributing to production websites in Webflow (CMS architecture, components, scalable page systems)
• Experience shipping and iterating quickly on live web products without compromising quality
• Deep fluency in Figma and modern design workflows
• Ability to design complex flows, information architecture, and scalable systems
• Working knowledge of front-end technologies (HTML/CSS, basic JS concepts) to design with implementation in mind
• Ability to design systems that translate cleanly from Figma to Webflow, maintaining consistency across components, layouts, and content structures
• Exceptional eye for typography, color, spacing, and composition, with ability to explain decisions for product goals
• Experience designing accessible color systems and typographic scales

Qualifications

• Significant time spent designing digital products for web and/or mobile, with experience owning product design across multiple phases: discovery, definition, delivery, and iteration.
