About the role

  • As a Product Design Manager at Solace, you'll lead a team of talented product designers while remaining deeply involved in the craft yourself.
  • This isn't a role for someone who wants to step away from design. We believe the best design leaders stay close to the work - partnering with Product and Engineering to solve complex problems, coaching designers through ambiguity, and raising the quality of everything the team ships.
  • You'll own a portfolio of product areas, helping shape both the product experience and the designers responsible for bringing it to life. You'll balance strategic thinking with hands-on design leadership, creating an environment where designers can do the best work of their careers.

Responsibilities

  • Lead, coach, and develop a team of Product Designers through regular feedback, mentorship, and career development
  • Partner closely with Product Managers and Engineering leaders to shape product strategy and define thoughtful user experiences
  • Raise the quality of product design across your domain through strong creative direction, critique, and hands-on design leadership
  • Establish and reinforce design standards, systems thinking, and interaction patterns across multiple product areas
  • Foster a culture of collaboration, curiosity, and continuous improvement within the Product Design team
  • Help scale the organization by contributing to hiring, onboarding, team rituals, and design processes
  • Significant experience designing complex digital products, with experience leading designers or design teams
  • A portfolio demonstrating exceptional product design craft and strategic thinking

Requirements

  • Experience partnering closely with Product Management and Engineering in fast-paced environments
  • Strong systems thinking and the ability to connect individual features to a cohesive product experience
  • Comfort navigating ambiguity and helping teams make thoughtful decisions without having all the answers
