About the Role
In this role, you will be instrumental in crafting seamless, accessible, and impactful digital/staff experiences for millions of Australians. You will lead design from early discovery through to delivery, balancing strategic thinking with practical execution, embedded in a cross-functional squad.
Responsibilities
- Lead end-to-end design, from problem discovery through to high-quality delivery.
- Inform team strategy, priorities, and roadmap decisions through insights-led thinking.
- Rapidly uncover problems, explore opportunities, and iterate toward validated, high-quality solutions.
- Partner closely with Product and Engineering to frame problems, define outcomes, and deliver measurable impact.
- Plan and facilitate user research, testing, and insight synthesis to uncover needs and validate design direction.
- Translate complex business, user, and system requirements into clear, intuitive experiences.
- Drive collaboration across Product, Engineering, Content, Accessibility, and Legal/Risk for clarity and alignment.
- Use and evolve the design system to deliver consistent, scalable, and accessible experiences.
- Collaborate with Engineering using AI-enabled tooling to accelerate exploration, prototyping, and delivery.
- Facilitate and participate in design critiques, workshops, and agile ceremonies, providing and receiving actionable feedback according to our design standards to continuously improve outcomes.
Requirements
- 7+ years of experience designing digital/staff products end-to-end in cross-functional product teams.
- Proven ability to lead discovery and delivery activities with customers, product, and engineering stakeholders.
- Deep understanding of human-centred design methodologies and how to apply and execute them pragmatically in a fast-paced agile environment.
- Excellent interaction and UI design skills, with an eye for detail and craft.
- Experience designing for complex systems, services, or platforms, not just isolated features.
- Strong collaboration and communication skills — you’re as comfortable sketching ideas on a whiteboard with engineers as you are presenting strategic concepts to executives.
- Proficiency with modern design tools (e.g., Figma, Adobe Creative Suite) and a basic understanding of front-end technologies (HTML, CSS, components, design tokens).
- Comfortable navigating ambiguity and complexity, balancing customer needs with business goals.
- Experience with metrics-driven product development (e.g., running experiments, A/B testing, usage funnels data).
- A portfolio that showcases end-to-end product design thinking, craft, and measurable impact.
