About the role
- Evolving toward a more connected experience across the full care placement journey.
- You care about users, business outcomes, product quality, and team momentum.
Responsibilities
- Lead design for Consumer Experience
- Own end-to-end product design for Consumer workstreams, from discovery and journey mapping through prototypes and production-ready design, including the unified family experience across APFM.com http://APFM.com, AgingCare, Care Hub, advisor-connected workflows, and emerging AI-enabled channels.
- Partner with Product, Engineering, Research, Marketing, Analytics, Operations, Sales, and business leaders to define problem framing, success criteria, tradeoffs, and release scope.
- Design for trust, clarity, accessibility, speed, and usability across moments where families need accurate information and confident next steps.
- Use research, analytics, care-seeker conversations, marketing insights, funnel data, frontline team input, product data, and business context to guide design decisions.
- Communicate design rationale clearly to product teams, engineering partners, marketing partners, operational stakeholders, and senior leaders.
- Raise the design quality bar
- Help distinguish consumer-specific design needs from reusable marketplace and design-system patterns.
- Increase design leverage with AI
- Bring a builder's mindset to design: use lightweight prototypes, AI-assisted workflows, and scrappy experiments to make ideas tangible earlier.
Requirements
- You know when to prototype, when to simplify, when to push for a better system pattern, and when to help the team make a pragmatic decision.
- You are AI-forward without being AI-naive.
- You are curious about tools like Figma Make, Figma Agents, Claude, ChatGPT, Codex, Cursor, MCP-enabled workflows, v0, or similar tools, and you have probably tried some of them before they were fully ready.
- Experience working in fast-moving, ambiguous environments where ownership, pragmatism, and cross-functional trust matter.
- 7+ years of product design experience on complex consumer web, marketplace, healthcare, search, lead-generation, ecommerce, SaaS, CRM, internal-tool, or operations-facing products.
- Strong portfolio showing end-to-end ownership from ambiguous problem framing through shipped product, including work that influenced product strategy or raised the quality bar across multiple workstreams.
- Excellent interaction design, systems thinking, information architecture, UX writing judgment, and product judgment.
- Demonstrated curiosity and hands-on experimentation with AI tools in the design or product development process.
- Ability to explain not just what you designed, but how you used evidence, tools, prototypes, constraints, and judgment to make better decisions.
- Strong Figma skills and the ability to communicate design intent through flows, prototypes, specs, and crisp design storytelling.
- Comfort partnering deeply with Product Managers, Engineers, Researchers, Marketing, Analytics, operational stakeholders, Sales, and senior leaders to align teams around clear design direction.
- Portfolio:
- Please include a portfolio that shows your product judgment, craft, and decision-making. We are especially interested in work that shows how you move from ambiguity to clarity. Passion projects, prototypes, AI-assisted experiments, or side projects are welcome if they help us understand how you think, build, and learn outside of a standard case study format.
