About the Role
As a Product Designer at Middesk, you'll design intuitive experiences that empower customers to make informed compliance and risk decisions in highly regulated industries. You will own the end-to-end design process from discovery through delivery, balancing craft, systems thinking, and curiosity.
Responsibilities
- Partner closely with Product and Engineering to refine problems, explore solutions, and deliver designs that strike the right balance between customer needs, business goals, and technical constraints.
- Own the end-to-end design process, from early discovery to launch, using design best practices to drive impact at every stage.
- Turn dense or ambiguous data into experiences that build trust and clarity for our customers.
- Use storytelling to bring clarity and meaning to complex business identity and risk concepts, helping others understand the "why" behind your work.
- Shape and evolve Middesk's design system and visual language to ensure consistency, accessibility, and craft across all products.
Requirements
- Over 6+ years of in house product design experience delivering impactful solutions for B2B products.
- A strong portfolio of work demonstrating the ability to turn complex or abstract customer challenges into simple, intuitive solutions.
- Product-minded and can collaborate closely with PMs to help frame problems, scope work, and drive decisions rather than waiting for fully defined requirements.
- Able to navigate and interpret complex data and reason about how best to surface it in the user experience.
- A systems thinker who bridges user experience and API-driven systems, with familiarity in developer tooling such as SDK configuration, setup flows, and technical onboarding.
- Deeply familiar with LLM-powered development tooling (Claude Code, Codex, or similar) and able to use it to build end-to-end prototypes with little to no engineering support.
- Strong communication skills, able to clearly articulate design decisions and advocate for customers' needs.
- A proactive approach to advancing work, taking initiative to move projects forward and keep teams aligned through changing priorities.
- Proficiency in design tools, including prototyping, collaborating in shared design files, and effectively leveraging and maintaining design system components.
- Bonus points for direct experience designing for platforms that work with business or consumer data.
- Working experience in product management, front-end development, or engineering.
