This position is listed on behalf of a partner company, who manages all applications and next steps. Our partner is looking for a Senior Director of Design based in the United States.

We are seeking an accomplished Senior Director of Design to lead the strategic vision and execution of a major Governance and Compliance product portfolio. In this role, you will shape the future of enterprise compliance experiences by transforming complex, manual workflows into intelligent, AI-powered solutions and agentic experiences. You will oversee a talented organization of senior designers, design managers, and directors, ensuring exceptional design quality, consistency, and innovation across the product ecosystem. Working closely with Product and Engineering leadership, you will influence product strategy and drive meaningful business outcomes through user-centered design. You will also champion the adoption of AI-powered design tools and workflows, helping teams prototype, build, and deliver high-quality experiences more efficiently. This is an opportunity to combine strategic leadership, technical expertise, and hands-on design excellence to simplify complex enterprise challenges at scale.

Accountabilities:

  • Design Strategy and Vision: Define and lead the overall design strategy for the Governance and Compliance product portfolio, establishing a clear vision for the evolution of compliance workflows through AI-powered automation and intelligent agent experiences.
  • Agentic Product Innovation: Drive the development and expansion of AI-powered product experiences, building on existing agent capabilities and defining how human users and autonomous agents collaborate effectively across compliance workflows.
  • Design Quality and Excellence: Establish and maintain exceptional design standards across the entire product portfolio, ensuring consistency, usability, and quality from initial concepts through production. Provide hands-on guidance and contribute directly to critical design decisions when needed.
  • Enterprise Product Experience: Lead the design of sophisticated enterprise experiences, addressing complex requirements such as organizational structures, permissions, segmentation, custom configurations, multi-entity audits, and large-scale deployments.
  • Systems Thinking and Design Architecture: Guide the development of scalable design systems, object models, and reusable interaction patterns that ensure consistency across multiple product surfaces and support evolving customer needs.
  • AI-Driven Design Transformation: Champion the integration of AI into everyday design practices, expanding existing design tools and development workflows to help designers prototype, experiment, and deliver production-ready experiences more efficiently while maintaining high craftsmanship standards.
  • Leadership and Team Development: Lead, mentor, and develop a multidisciplinary design organization comprising senior individual contributors, design managers, directors, and other design leaders. Build a high-performing, collaborative, and accountable team.
  • Talent Acquisition and Organizational Growth: Recruit and develop exceptional design talent, strengthen leadership capabilities, and establish an organizational structure that supports the continued growth of the product portfolio.
  • Cross-Functional Partnership: Collaborate as a strategic peer with Product and Engineering leadership, jointly owning product outcomes, technical decisions, user experience quality, and overall delivery.
  • Technical Collaboration: Work closely with engineering teams to translate complex technical requirements into intuitive product experiences, ensuring design decisions are feasible, scalable, and aligned with platform architecture.
  • Strategic Execution: Balance long-term product vision with hands-on execution, ensuring design priorities remain aligned with customer needs, business objectives, and evolving enterprise requirements.
  • Responsible AI and Data Protection: Promote responsible AI adoption within the design organization, ensuring that AI-assisted workflows meet quality standards and that customer and company data are appropriately protected.
  • Continuous Improvement: Encourage experimentation, innovation, and knowledge sharing across the design organization, continuously improving design practices, collaboration models, and product experiences.
  • Extensive experience leading product design organizations, including managing senior design leaders, design directors, design managers, and principal or staff-level individual contributors.
  • Demonstrated experience leading design teams of 12 or more people, with a strong track record of building, mentoring, and scaling high-performing design organizations.
  • Significant experience in enterprise B2B SaaS product design, particularly within complex platforms involving customized configurations, multi-organizational workflows, permissions, and large-scale deployments.
  • Proven experience designing and launching AI-powered or agentic products, with a strong understanding of how product design must adapt to non-deterministic AI outputs and autonomous workflows.
  • Hands-on experience using AI in the design process, including prototyping, experimentation, building through development harnesses, or working directly with code.
  • Ability to champion AI adoption across design teams, helping designers develop practical AI skills while maintaining exceptional product quality and design craftsmanship.
  • Strong systems-thinking capabilities, with experience developing scalable object models, design architectures, and reusable patterns that work consistently across multiple product experiences.
  • Demonstrated ability to simplify highly complex enterprise products and workflows into intuitive, accessible, and cohesive user experiences.
  • Experience working closely with engineering teams in technically sophisticated environments, with the ability to engage in architectural discussions and understand complex product and platform requirements.
  • Familiarity with Governance, Risk, and Compliance (GRC), security, compliance management, or related technical domains is highly valuable.
  • Strong strategic leadership skills, with the ability to translate business objectives and customer needs into clear design priorities and long-term product direction.
  • Proven ability to partner effectively with Product and Engineering executives, influencing strategic decisions and jointly driving measurable product outcomes.
  • Excellent communication, presentation, and stakeholder management skills, with the ability to articulate design decisions and influence teams at all organizational levels.
  • Strong coaching and mentoring capabilities, with a demonstrated commitment to developing design leaders and supporting the professional growth of senior individual contributors.
  • A portfolio demonstrating experience simplifying complex enterprise products and delivering innovative AI-forward product experiences. A portfolio is required during the interview process.
  • Ability to operate comfortably between high-level strategic planning and detailed design execution in a fast-paced, evolving environment.
  • Strong judgment, adaptability, and a collaborative leadership approach that encourages innovation, accountability, and continuous improvement.
  • Commitment to using AI tools in everyday work to enhance productivity, strengthen decision-making, and improve outcomes while maintaining responsible practices and high-quality standards.
  • Must be legally authorized to work in the United States without requiring current or future employer-sponsored visa support.
  • Competitive Compensation: Annual base salary ranging from $309,000 to $363,000, depending on location, experience, skills, and qualifications.
