The Opportunity: Staff Product Designer

We’re looking for a Staff Product Designer to define the learner experience. This is a 0→1 role, focused on building a new adaptive learning pattern rather than refining an existing one. You will be instrumental in shaping how adaptive learning works in practice.

Reporting to the Head of Design, you will partner with product managers, engineers, curriculum developers, and commercial teams across the business.

What Success Looks Like in 6-12 Months

• Delivery of a novel learner experience model that distinctively introduces adaptive learning.
• Clear, well-defined core interaction patterns or system designs potentially eligible for patent or IP protection.
• High learner adoption of new patterns, integrating them into daily routines.
• A robust design system supporting rapid experimentation and iteration without compromising quality.
• A collaborative reference for product and engineering teams, ensuring consistent design principles across features.

What You Will Do

• Work in a 0→1 build, major pivot, or new-market entry, where requirements are fluid and the ideal experience is not immediately obvious.
• Co-own the Learner Experience with the Head of Design, shaping the UX across all learner-facing surfaces.
• Design adaptive learning systems that evolve based on individual needs, moving beyond static flows.
• Collaborate with cross-functional teams to define, iterate, and deliver impactful design solutions.
• Drive rapid experimentation and iteration, maintaining quality while adapting to product evolution.
• Ensure the design system scales and supports flexibility without compromising consistency.
• Mentor and influence other designers, fostering a collaborative and growth-focused environment.
• Communicate design intent clearly to stakeholders using prototypes, presentations, and documentation.

This Role May Not Be a Good Fit If...

You need clear requirements, prefer working within established patterns, prioritize polish over innovation, avoid conflict when quality or ambition are at stake, require a structured process, communicate only within specific teams, or expect a narrow scope in a small design team.

Requirements

• Experience shaping design outcomes beyond visuals, influencing product direction, system architecture, and user behavior.
• A history of shipping work that introduced new ways for users to engage with a product.
• Comfort in fast-moving, ambiguous environments, refining designs iteratively.
• Ability to deliver coherent cross-platform experiences while making thoughtful mobile and web trade-offs.
• Expertise in influencing senior leadership, product teams, and engineers with clear, evidence-based design decisions.
• Fluency in English (C1 level) with strong communication skills, able to clearly explain design intent to diverse teams.

What We Can Offer You

• Fully remote, full-time role with flexible hours for work-life balance.
• Paid parental leave and paid sick leave for well-being.
• A supportive and inclusive team valuing empathy, respect, and open communication.
• Opportunities for learning, mentorship, and professional growth.
• Competitive compensation with transparent working conditions.
• Access to thoughtfully chosen collaboration tools: Miro, Notion, Google Workspace.
