Unlock Your Potential as a Product Design Leader

As a visionary leader, you will have the opportunity to shape the future of product design at UpGuard. Our mission is to protect the world's data by empowering our customers with elegant and robust solutions.

Our team is dedicated to delivering top-notch products that meet the highest standards of quality and usability. We believe in fostering a collaborative environment where ideas flow freely, and creativity knows no bounds.

As the VP of Product Design, you will be responsible for leading a team of talented designers and UX writers. You will scale our design system, drive the adoption of AI tools, and help shape a unified, world-class experience across every touchpoint.

Key Responsibilities:

  • Craft and socialize a compelling design vision that aligns with our product strategy and brand.
  • Establish a design-system roadmap that scales across multiple products and future use cases.
  • Define success metrics e.g. adoption of the design system, usability/NPS increases, reduction in design-to-dev cycle time and report progress to executives.

Requirements:

  • Proven leadership: Multiple years leading product-design teams (Director/Head/VP level), ideally in a high-growth B2B software environment.
  • Track record of impact: Clear examples where your leadership elevated product usability, visual quality, or speed of delivery.
  • Design-system expertise: Experience building or scaling a component library and token system in Figma (or similar).
  • AI mindset: Familiarity with generative-AI tools and a passion for integrating them into design workflows.
  • Collaboration skills: Excellent communication and influence across Product, Engineering, and Brand teams.
  • User-centred craft: Ability to pair data-driven insights with strong product-thinking and interaction-design chops.
  • Domain exposure: Experience in B2B SaaS is highly valued; cybersecurity familiarity is a bonus but not mandatory.

Benefits:

  • Monthly lifestyle subsidy: use this for financial, physical, and mental wellbeing.
  • WFH set-up allowance: to ensure you have the right environment to work in, we will help you get set up within your first 3 months at UpGuard.
  • $1500 USD annual Learning & Development allowance: to support your career development.
  • Generous Annual Leave/PTO allowances: time to recharge your batteries.
  • 18 weeks paid Parental Leave: irrespective of parenting role.
  • Personal Leave allowance: this includes sick & carer's leave.
  • Fully remote working environment: whilst we have physical offices in Sydney & Hobart, we do not mandate compulsory attendance.
  • Top-spec hardware: all team members will be provided with top-spec laptops for their role.
