About the role
- This role sits at the center of that challenge: shaping how complex, high-stakes transaction flows become interfaces that feel inevitable.
- The right person is a systems thinker who's equally comfortable pushing pixels and pushing back on product assumptions.
Responsibilities
- Own the end-to-end design process across Sapiom's core product - from early discovery and requirements gathering with Product, through iterative visual design, to guiding implementation with Engineering.
- You'll help define Sapiom's design language as it matures - knowing when to use the system, when to evolve it, and when to break it deliberately.
- Own the full design process across product surfaces - from FigJam workshops and Figma mockups to production-quality prototypes built with v0, Cursor, or Claude Code - delivering the right artifact at the right moment.
- Partner with Product and Engineering to shape strategic direction, not just execute on spec - bringing design thinking into roadmap conversations early.
- Define and evolve Sapiom's design system with precision - knowing when convention serves users and when a new pattern is necessary.
- Advocate across the company for design quality and consistency - establishing shared standards and raising the bar for how Sapiom's product looks and feels.
- Nurture a design culture as an early team member - giving and receiving feedback with candor, mentoring where needed, and building the environment you want to work in.
Requirements
- Proven track record designing interactive products in complex technical domains - developer tooling, infrastructure software, fintech, or security - where the users are sophisticated and the stakes are high.
