JOB   SUMMARY

What You’ll Own & Do

Platform product design:

• Own the full design lifecycle for shared platform surfaces: user management, notifications, permissions, settings, and other cross-functional areas used across Nexl’s squads.
• Contribute to defining the problem space for your domain: identify gaps, surface opportunities, and shape solutions working closely with the Head of Engineering on prioritisation and scope.
• Partner closely with the Head of Engineering through discovery and delivery, from early problem framing to production-ready UI.
• Translate complex, interconnected workflows into experiences that feel simple and consistent to end users.
• Run discovery and validation independently, usability testing, customer interviews, assumption testing and iterate based on what you learn.
• Communicate design decisions and trade-offs clearly to engineers and senior stakeholders, influencing direction rather than just presenting work.

Design system ownership:

• Own and evolve Nexl’s design system: tokens, components, patterns, documentation, and contribution guidelines.
• Work with designers across product squads to drive adoption, resolve inconsistencies, and keep the system aligned with the live product.
• Partner with engineering to ensure design system components are implemented accurately and maintained in code.
• Establish governance: how components are proposed, reviewed, versioned, and deprecated as the product scales.

What We’re Looking For:

Must haves:

• Proven experience as a Product Designer on a digital product (B2B SaaS experience strongly preferred).
• Ability to design for shared, reusable surfaces that serve multiple teams and user types beyond individual flows.
• Hands-on experience building, contributing to, or owning a design system in a product environment.
• Strong across the full design lifecycle: problem discovery, flows, wireframes, high-fidelity UI, and prototypes.
• Comfortable contributing to problem definition and scope alongside engineering leadership, without relying on a handed-down brief.
• Proficient in using AI tools to accelerate design workflows, prototype iteration, and synthesis of customer insight.
• Comfortable running usability testing, customer interviews, and discovery sessions independently to inform design decisions.
• Demonstrated ability to translate complex workflows and systems into clear, intuitive experiences.
• Experience working directly and closely with engineers, including bridging design intent to implementation.
• Confident explaining design thinking, challenging decisions constructively, and influencing direction at the senior level.

Nice to haves:

• Experience designing complex, data-heavy, or workflow-driven products.
• Familiarity with design token architecture and tooling (e.g. Style Dictionary, Figma Variables).
• Exposure to accessibility auditing and WCAG standards.
• Experience in LegalTech, FinTech, or other professional-services software environments.
