The Opportunity

Brightflag is growing. As a market leader, with a product that customers truly love, we’re scaling quickly. To continue to build and evolve our AI-first product we’re growing our Product & Engineering team across multiple disciplines. We have an exceptional team and a high bar. We challenge ourselves with ambitious goals, best practice standards and a drive for continuous improvement. If you want to grow, get better, and accelerate your career within a driven product team, Brightflag is the place for you.

As a Senior Product Designer, you will own meaningful product domains end-to-end, from early discovery through to delivery and iteration. You will work closely with Product and Engineering in a true product trio, helping to shape the problem space, explore solutions, and bring clarity through strong design thinking and craft. You will be working on complex, enterprise-grade workflows in a B2B SaaS environment, where thoughtful discovery, pragmatic research, and a strong human-centred approach to solving real customer problems really matter. This is a senior individual contributor role where you will sharpen problem definition, elevate the quality of our craft, strengthen collaboration across teams, and play a key part in how our design practice grows as Brightflag scales.

What You Will Be Doing

Communicate design vision and decisions clearly to cross-functional partners and leadership.
Contribute to product strategy by identifying new problem spaces and opportunities, and influencing long-term direction through strong design thinking.
Lead and contribute to human-centred discovery and research: define problems clearly, validate opportunities, and ensure the team is solving the right customer needs.
Use product analytics data alongside customer insight to inform design decisions, identify friction or opportunity, and turn signals into clear, actionable design direction.
Work closely with your product trio (Product & Engineering) to shape solutions collaboratively and continuously.
Hold a strong point of view on the long-term user experience, but make pragmatic calls that help us ship and learn in the short term.
Bring structure to messy, ambiguous problem spaces. Use sketches, flows, prototypes, and system thinking to help the team see the problem clearly and align on a way forward.
Be clear about why we’re making certain design decisions. Talk through trade-offs openly and build trust with Product, Engineering, and leadership.
Stay close to real customer workflows. Work with Customer Success and Support to understand what’s actually happening on the ground and feed that back into the product.
Help raise the bar for how we design at Brightflag, from critique and craft to research, design systems, and how we work across squads.

Skills & Experience

To be successful in the role, you need:

7+ years of experience in Product Design within a product-led SaaS environment.
Proven product design craft expertise. Experience owning meaningful product areas end-to-end, not just delivering screens, but shaping the problem space and seeing it through to impact.
Strong in human-centred design and discovery. Comfortable framing problems properly, exploring options, speaking with customers, and validating direction before we commit to build.
Used to working closely with Product and Engineering as part of a tight product trio — collaborating early and often, not working in handoffs.
Experience designing complex, workflow-heavy B2B products.
Clear communicator who can explain their thinking, talk through trade-offs, and influence decisions.
Comfortable operating in ambiguity, making principled trade-offs that balance user value, technical constraints, and business priorities.
Experienced working in iterative, Agile product environments, designing in small increments and learning continuously.
Able to use both qualitative research and quantitative product data to shape decisions, prioritise effectively, and evaluate the impact of shipped work.
Expert-level use of Figma.
Comfortable working with product analytics tools (e.g. Amplitude, Mixpanel, GA or similar).

The following are a bonus:

Experience working on AI-driven or data-rich products
Experience using AI tools to enhance your own design and research workflows. If you can bring new ways of working and help the team learn and evolve in this space, that would be a strong addition.
Enterprise experience is a big plus.
