Responsibilities

Work on large, strategic features in Proof’s identity and fraud mitigation space, accounting for multiple user groups, use cases, and industries. Wireframe, design, and prototype significant features in Figma that address needs of large customers, identity agents, and consumers with a variety of workflows and use cases. Iterate quickly to generate ideas, achieve a high level of quality and consistency, and work within our design system while pushing our visual design language forward.

Lead cross-functional discussions with product managers, engineers, and stakeholders to help clarify goals, define the problem you’re solving, and brainstorm solutions with team members. Partner with PMs and engineers to align on scope and ensure high quality launches. Delegate to and collaborate with other designers to see your vision through to a positive end result.

Contribute to vision-setting for the identity and fraud mitigation product space at Proof. Design compelling north star visions that the team can align to, and that can actively influence prioritization of investments in biannual roadmap planning.

Set a strong example for the rest of the design team in your design process. Showcase what being a lead product designer means through your sketches, file organization, research, presentations, and more. Collaborate with other UX team members by providing feedback in weekly design critiques, delegating tasks on cross-team projects, and mentoring more junior designers. Take initiative to improve the skills of the other designers on the team. Bring new tools, best practices, and processes to the design team in order to make everyone more effective.

Address users’ pain points while balancing business goals. Lead UX research and customer calls to better define the user journey. Collaborate with our Principal UX Researcher to drive forward strategic research. Use insights from qualitative and quantitative user data to inform your decisions and measure success.

Leverage UX tools in your research and design process to form hypotheses and measure success. Utilize FullStory to analyze user interactions and Pendo to deliver targeted in-app guidance and messaging.
