Product Designer
As a Senior Product Designer at Monks, you will lead the design and evolution of a high-impact macOS application for one of our clients. In this role, you will be the primary design owner, responsible for defining the detailed execution of a high-level vision and translating complex business requirements into elegant, scalable, and user-friendly solutions. The ideal candidate is a "full-cycle" designer who is equally comfortable in the discovery phase as they are in high-fidelity execution. Because this is a client-facing role, you must be highly autonomous, capable of driving projects forward with minimal oversight, and able to maintain a high bar for quality and consistency that reflects our company’s standards.
Your key responsibilities will include leading end-to-end product design efforts for enterprise-level applications and platforms. You will facilitate discovery sessions with internal clients and stakeholders to uncover user needs, business goals, and technical constraints. Designing intuitive, visually compelling, and scalable UI/UX solutions rooted in best practices and data will be a core part of your day-to-day work. Collaboration is essential, as you will work cross-functionally with product managers, developers, and other designers to maintain consistency across platforms and ensure design intent is preserved. Making confident, strategic design decisions and communicating them clearly across various teams and contexts will also be expected.
To be successful in this role, you should have 8+ years of experience in Product Design, with a strong portfolio demonstrating enterprise product and app design. Proven ability to work independently with minimal oversight while maintaining strong team collaboration is crucial. Exceptional communication skills, including experience in client-facing roles and working directly with decision-makers, are required. Strong UI and UX skills, including the ability to translate data into effective user experiences, are essential. Proficiency in design tools such as Figma is expected. Experience conducting discovery processes and translating insights into scalable design strategies is important. A strategic thinker with a knack for asking the right questions to uncover hidden needs will thrive in this position. Experience working in high-tech environments and navigating the complexities of large organizations is beneficial.
