About the team & role: We're looking for a Lead Product Designer to join the team behind the Xero Accounting App (XAA) – our flagship mobile experience that helps small business owners stay on top of their finances, wherever they are. You'll play a pivotal role in shaping the future of mobile accounting at Xero, partnering with cross-functional leaders across design, product, and engineering to drive high-quality outcomes. This is a hands-on leadership role. You'll lead design for key initiatives, mentor designers across the mobile portfolio, and help us continually raise the bar for quality, usability, and craft. If you're passionate about native mobile product design and want to make a real difference in the lives of small businesses, we'd love to hear from you.

      • Promote the value of design and collaborative practice across spheres of influence and participation
        • Present and communicate design work to a range of different audiences
          • Challenge current solutions, by exploring ideal future concepts and identifying new interaction solutions and patterns that meet customer needs in a better way
            • Create prototypes which tangibly demonstrate a proposed concept or solution
              • Influence, challenge and support designers within your product area to deliver high quality product experiences
                • Develop phased design solutions that bridge the gap between a future state and current patterns, XUI Mobile design system, iOS, iPadOS, Android and other relevant constraints and considerations
                  • Develop detailed interactions and interfaces which are smart and contextually relevant
                    • Create effective handover materials which clearly communicate how the design should look and behave throughout interaction flows and journeys (e.g. User flow diagrams, design specifications, experience/interaction specifications etc)

What you'll bring with you

  • Track record of designing native mobile experiences across iOS and Android.
    • Track record of innovating and delivering complex design experiences at scale
      • Ability to solve customers' problems through design thinking and execution
        • A portfolio that demonstrates high-quality design outcomes, contributing to user experience and business value
          • A mastery of the entire design process from uncovering customer needs and pain points, to executing elegant interfaces
            • Excellent communication skills
