About the Role
We’re seeking an experienced Director of Product Design to lead, shape, and inspire our Flagship Product Team. You will own the vision, strategy, and execution of design across our product suite, with a focus on delivering world-class user experiences that empower real estate entrepreneurs. Your leadership will drive how design influences the future of the real estate industry by giving agents the tools they need to build their brand, grow their business, and expand their network.

You’ll shape long-term design vision, solve complex design challenges, and support the team through critical project milestones.

The Design Opportunity
As Director of Product Design, you’ll play a pivotal role in guiding the evolution of our platform through design. This opportunity is unique in several ways:

Our culture promotes ownership and trust. You’ll have significant input and leadership in shaping design across multiple products.
Diverse Scope of Work
our leadership will span visual design, UX, and design systems, ensuring a holistic, immersive experience for our customers.
Global Team
We hire based on talent, not location. You’ll be leading a global, remote team and scaling our design operations to support company-wide goals.
What are we looking for? We are not looking for unicorn.
Extensive experience and track record working on end-to-end product design.
A compelling portfolio that demonstrates high-quality design work that also tells a story that you are a deep design thinker.
Expertise in Figma and other tools for generating wireframes, designs, prototypes and specifications.

Proven skills in stakeholder management and visual storytelling.
Expertise designing experiences on mobile platforms (iOS / Android).
Excellent communicator and cross functional collaborator.
Interest in the real estate industry.
Why you might be excited about this role:
You will have a ton of ownership: we will be looking to you to provide strategic thinking and shape the vision and roadmap for your team.
You will own the end-to-end product development process, partnering closely with cross-functional partners like product, engineering, data science, and marketing.
You will work with a team that deeply cares about design and quality. Not just designers — engineers and PMs are committed to shipping quality work as well.
We push ourselves to do the best work in our careers. We want you to do work you will be proud to share in your portfolio.
We will mould your role to shape a career you're excited about. We care about your growth and job satisfaction, and will help prepare you for whatever you're looking for in the future.
Key responsibilities
Act as a multiplier by empowering your team to perform at their best while also being willing to roll up your sleeves and execute when necessary.
Set and drive the design vision, ensuring alignment with company goals and values.
Collaborate closely with cross-functional partners (Product, Engineering, Marketing, etc.) to deliver exceptional design outcomes.
Own the end-to-end design process, from strategy and concept to final delivery, ensuring consistency and high-quality execution.
Establish and optimize frameworks for Design Operations, including project management, team rituals and design critiques, workflow processes, and hiring strategies to ensure smooth operations and scalability across the team.
What we're looking for
Proven experience in leading product design teams, preferably within a B2B SaaS environment.
A strong portfolio that demonstrates high-quality design work, strategic thinking, and end-to-end product design.
Expertise in Figma and other design tools, including experience with design systems across multiple products.
Excellent communication skills, with the ability to influence and collaborate effectively with stakeholders at all levels.
Experience in mobile-first design.
A passion for creating intuitive, impactful user experiences in a fast-paced, growth-oriented environment.
Interest or experience in the real estate industry is a plus.
What will be challenging
We're a growing company (~500 people right now) with big goals. If you prefer set ways of working in a slower-pace environment, this role isn't for you
We’re still growing and evolving, which means things won’t be perfect and there will be challenges. We’re looking for someone with a high agency mindset who sees challenges as opportunities for growth.
We are critical of the work, not the person. Expect to be challenged in your thinking, and we expect you to do the same for others.
