What they need
- As the Staff Product Designer, you are a visionary leader who shapes how millions of people experience the future of work. You will tackle Andela’s most ambiguous product challenges, working across high-level business strategy and deep user empathy
- You aren’t just a “maker”; you are a “shaper” who defines the frameworks, logic, and standards that the rest of the design team follows
- Experience Architecture: Lead the design of complex, multi-sided marketplace flows. You will be responsible for the “big picture” logic of our Talent Cloud, ensuring seamless transitions between client hiring needs and talent career growth
- Strategic Partnership: Act as a peer to Product and Engineering. You will help define the product roadmap by identifying user-centric opportunities that align with Andela’s commercial goals
- Design Systems Governance: While you aren’t writing the code, you are the “Source of Truth” for our design language. You will oversee the evolution of our component library to ensure accessibility, consistency, and a world-class aesthetic
- Data-Informed Innovation: Use qualitative research and quantitative data to validate your hypotheses. You should be comfortable navigating complex data dashboards to find the “why” behind user behavior
- Mentorship & Craft Excellence: Elevate the output of the design team through rigorous design reviews, workshops, and the introduction of new methodologies
- Design Mentorship: Act as a “Force Multiplier.” You will lead design sprints, conduct high-level critiques, and mentor Senior Designers to help them reach the next level of their careers- Communication: Mastery of the “pitch.” You can articulate the ROI of design to non-design stakeholders and build consensus across a global, async organization
- Experience: 10+ years in Product Design, with a significant track record of delivering high-impact B2B, SaaS, or Marketplace products
- Product Sense: You think like a Product Manager. You understand trade-offs, technical constraints, and how to ship “Minimum Viable Products” (MVP) to learn fast
- The Stack: Experience of Figma paired with professional-grade proficiency in React.js, TypeScript, and CSS-in-JS (or Tailwind)
- Tooling: Expert-level Figma skills, including advanced prototyping, auto-layout, and library management
- Systems Thinker: You have a deep understanding of how design scales. You can think through edge cases, global localization, and complex state management without needing to see it in code first
- Business problem solver: You’re not just a functional expert; you consistently get praise for approaching your function through the lens of solving business problems
- Experience leading cross-functional initiatives across Engineering, Operations, and commercial teams in a remote or distributed organization
- Great listener, hungry for feedback: You’re always seeking to improve – our product, our business, yourself. You solicit diverse opinions and deeply listen
- One team mentality: You break silos across teams. You put the company and mission first above your team alone
- 3+ years in a marketplace, platform, or multi-sided network business model
- Owner, not renter: You see a problem, you fix it or find someone who will. The buck stops with you
- Bachelor’s degree in Business, Engineering, Computer Science, or related field; MBA or advanced degree preferred
- Player-coach: You fly high (create strategy) AND low (know the details that matter). You roll up your sleeves and get scrappy. You do this proactively collaborating with your team while actively engaging in important details
- Low ego, low drama, servant leader: You share credit, take blame. You like being wrong because it means someone else had an even better idea
- 2+ years managing or mentoring direct reports
- Exceptional Leadership: As an Andelan, you’ll serve as a role model for the rest of the company. Think about the feedback your peers typically give you – if it usually sounds like the below, we want to hear from you:
