  • Ensuring all designs meet accessibility, responsiveness, and scalability standards.

  • 10+ years of experience in product design, with a strong portfolio demonstrating innovative and impactful design solutions.
  • Proven leadership experience managing and mentoring design teams.
  • Expert level in working with an in-house created design system that was executed consistently across design files and code bases.
  • History of designing scalable user research and usability processes.
  • Considerable experience working with Figma.
  • Strong communication skills with the ability to articulate design decisions to both technical and non-technical audiences.

Preferred Qualifications
  • Experience in SaaS, B2B, or marketplace product environments.
  • Proficiency in working with data and product analytics tools to deliver design insights.
  • Proficiency in UX writing and content strategy.

Compensation: Highly competitive compensation commensurate with experience and contribution.

  • Opportunity to participate in ownership of a rapidly growing company through our employee stock option plan.
  • Comprehensive 100% employer-paid health & dental premiums and a Health/Personal Spending Account for Canadian employees. (An employer-subsidized benefits program is available for US-based team members).
  • If you are based in Vancouver, enjoy a dedicated desk in our Vancouver, BC HQ, in the heart of downtown, with a fridge stocked with healthy snacks and drinks, an onsite gym, and a gorgeous rooftop amenity.
  • Vancouver based employees enjoy a $20-per-day commuter benefit for every day you work in our downtown HQ.
  • An engaging social calendar, including bi-weekly catered lunches, bi-weekly "Friday bar," team workouts, annual summer party, and holiday party, two "onsite" all-team retreats each year, semi-annual team-building events, and Hiive Women's Network events.
  • Significant opportunities for growth into team leadership and management roles.
