This role owns the design-driven product backlog for our website and platform experiences - translating vision and user needs into polished, well-specified work using **Figma** and **Claude Design**. You'll be the bridge between business strategy, customer needs, and the development team, ensuring every shipped experience is not just functional, but genuinely well-designed. This is a hands-on role: you won't just write requirements, you'll actively prototype, critique, and refine designs in Figma & Claude Design alongside designers and engineers, then own the backlog that turns those designs into shipped product. ## I. Vision & Strategy - Define and evangelize the product's design vision - the "why" behind the experience, its long-term direction, and how it aligns with company strategy. Communicate this clearly to stakeholders and the development team. - Develop and maintain a design-forward product roadmap, sequencing key features, releases, and design initiatives based on market trends, user needs, and business objectives. - Conduct market and competitive research, with a specific eye on design trends, interaction patterns, and emerging tools in the web/UX landscape. - Deeply understand target users - their workflows, pain points, goals, and expectations for a well-designed digital experience. ## II. Design & Backlog Ownership - Own the CMS/product backlog, including design-related work: mockups, prototypes, design specs, and UI/UX tickets - ensuring it's the single source of truth for design and development work. - Build and iterate on prototypes and mockups directly in **Figma** and **Claude Design**, translating high-level concepts into concrete, testable design artifacts. - Create and refine user stories with clear acceptance criteria, including visual/interaction specifications derived from Figma files, so design intent survives the handoff to engineering. - Prioritize backlog items based on business value, design quality, technical feasibility, risk, and dependencies. - Ensure design and backlog items are "ready" - sufficiently detailed, reviewed, and approved before entering a sprint. - Manage design dependencies across teams (design system, front-end, other product squads) to minimize roadblocks. ## III. Stakeholder Communication & Collaboration - Serve as the primary point of contact for design- and product-related inquiries from internal (sales, marketing, support, leadership) and external (customers, partners) stakeholders. - Present design concepts, prototypes, and progress - using Figma and Claude Design artifacts - to communicate direction clearly to non-design audiences. - Gather and synthesize feedback from customer support, sales, user testing, and analytics to inform design and product decisions. - Facilitate design workshops and critique sessions to gather requirements, validate concepts, and align stakeholders around a direction. - Manage competing priorities and expectations among stakeholders, balancing design quality against timeline and scope. ## IV. Development Team Collaboration - Act as the voice of the customer and the champion of design quality throughout the development lifecycle. - Be available to the development team to clarify design intent, answer questions, and make timely decisions on backlog items. - Actively participate in refinement, sprint planning, sprint reviews, and retrospectives. - Review completed work against both functional acceptance criteria and design fidelity (comparing shipped work to the Figma/Claude Design source of truth) before accepting. - Foster a collaborative environment between design, product, and engineering. ## V. Product & Design Performance - Define and track KPIs relevant to design quality and product success - engagement, conversion, usability metrics, load speed, accessibility compliance, and SEO performance. - Analyze usage data and A/B test results to identify where design changes could improve outcomes. - Monitor user feedback and support tickets for recurring usability or design issues. - Continuously identify opportunities to improve usability, visual quality, and overall experience. - Support product launches and post-launch design iteration in partnership with marketing and sales. ## VI.
