Position Overview

Silverspin operates multiple brands worldwide and leads the industry in AI-powered product experiences, automation, and next-generation digital design. We’re looking for a Design Team Lead who can elevate our product craft, drive UX/UI excellence, and lead a high-performing team in delivering world-class web and app experiences.

Your role will be to lead the central product design function and the end-to-end UX and UI across Silverspin’s global product portfolio. Drive research, testing, prototyping, design systems, and continuous optimization. Build an AI-enabled operation that increases speed, reduces repetitive effort, and enhances design quality across all markets.

Key Responsibilities

Leadership

• Set clear standards for craft, quality, accessibility, and consistency.
• Build a culture of critique, iteration, experimentation, and high performance.
• Define predictable workflows, delivery expectations, and operating principles.
• Coach designers across research, UX & UI craft, and systems thinking.

Product Design Excellence

• Lead the full UX lifecycle: discovery, research, flows, wireframes, prototypes, final UI, and implementation support.
• Use behavioural analytics, heatmaps, funnels, and experiments to guide decisions.
• Run usability testing, rapid validation, and continuous optimisation.
• Ensure user journeys across acquisition, onboarding, gameplay, and account flows are intuitive, fast, and conversion led.
• Maintain strong alignment with product owners on problem definition, requirements, and solution validation.

Design Systems & UX Consistency

• Own and evolve the global design system across brands and markets.
• Create engineering-ready components and patterns that ensure coherence and reduce delivery friction.
• Ensure accessibility, responsiveness, and performance standards are met.
• Maintain documentation, usage guidelines, and scalable component libraries.

AI & Workflow Automation

• Champion AI in product design: AI wireframing, UI exploration, prototyping, and design automation.
• Identify opportunities to reduce repetitive tasks through templates, systemisation, and smart tooling.
• Adopt and evaluate new AI tools that improve speed, quality, and scalability.
• Foster a culture of AI-enabled design experimentation across the team.

Cross-Functional Collaboration

• Product: discovery, roadmap shaping, experimentation, and feature design.
• Engineering: design system implementation, UI QA, and consistent build quality.
• Brand: ensure product design reflects brand identity without compromising UX.
• Data & Performance: integrate insights, behavioural analytics, and experimentation frameworks into design decisions.

Requirements

• 6 + years in product design with a strong UX/UI portfolio.
• 3 + years in managing and growing a high-performing product design team.
• Advanced proficiency in Figma (components, tokens, systems, prototyping).
• Experience building and maintaining design systems at scale.
• Strong understanding of behavioural analytics and experimentation.
• Hands-on experience using AI tools for design exploration or workflow automation.
• Excellent communication and ability to work closely with product and engineering.
