Product Designer 213973

As a valued partner to leading innovators, Aquent is seeking exceptional talent to join a world-class team dedicated to shaping the future of how small and mid-market businesses around the globe operate and thrive. This is an opportunity to make a profound impact, contributing to products that empower entrepreneurs and businesses on a global scale.

Join a pioneering team at the forefront of global product design, where your vision will directly influence the evolution of an AI-driven platform. We are seeking a highly experienced design leader to spearhead a key product area, driving innovation and expansion across diverse international markets. This role is not just about designing interfaces; it’s about setting strategic direction, fostering a customer-backed point of view, and building experiences that are truly global by design. You will be instrumental in transforming how businesses grow, leveraging cutting-edge AI to create intuitive, transparent, and trustworthy solutions. If you are passionate about systems-level thinking, global scale, and the transformative power of AI in design, this is your chance to make a significant and lasting impact.

Key Responsibilities

• Own the design strategy and vision for a product area within global markets, connecting near-term experimentation to durable, high-quality customer experiences.
• Be accountable for experience quality and business results, including customer growth, activation, conversion, and retention.
• Drive an AI-first approach to design, reimagining end-to-end journeys with AI and human expertise at the center, including mobile-first, agentic experiences and entry points on external surfaces.
• Design AI-powered features that are intuitive, transparent, and trustworthy for a diverse range of users.
• Design for global scale, building universal patterns and primitives that ship internationally in lockstep with core markets, and help decide what must be localized and what should stay consistent.
• Shape experiences for different growth motions: a centralized, product-led engine for small businesses, and a high-touch, sales-led motion with accountants and advisors for mid-market segments.
• Contribute to a high-velocity design and experimentation culture, from discovery through rapid prototyping and A/B testing, without sacrificing craft for speed.
• Raise the bar on visual, interaction, and systems-level craft across a distributed team spanning global hubs.
• Influence cross-functional partners and leaders with craft-forward storytelling and research-backed points of view.
• Align teams on target customers and the experience needed to win them in each market.
• Mentor and coach designers, and help shape the team’s design standards and operating model as we scale a Hub & Spoke organization.
• Partner closely with product management, engineering, analytics, and marketing as part of a dedicated cross-functional triad.

Qualifications

• 7+ years of product design experience, with a focus on product-led growth, funnel and conversion design, or B2B/SaaS growth.
• Track record of leading design for a product area or customer segment and delivering measurable business outcomes without compromising experience quality.
• Experience designing products for multiple international markets, including localization, multi-currency and multi-language experiences, and regulatory differences such as tax, compliance, and e-invoicing.
• Strong experience with experimentation and A/B testing, and fluency in behavioral data and funnel analytics.
• Experience designing with AI/ML, such as personalization, agentic workflows, and AI-accelerated discovery and delivery.
• Demonstrated ability to integrate AI tools into your design workflow to improve quality, speed, or exploration.
• Experience with design systems or platform-level primitives that scale across products and geographies.
• Demonstrated ability to raise craft across a team, including remote and cross-timezone teams, through mentorship and example.
• Excellent storytelling, communication, and influence skills, including the ability to align cross-functional partners and senior stakeholders across regions.
• Strong portfolio demonstrating rigorous craft, systems-level thinking, and measurable impact at scale.
