The Role

We're seeking a Lead Product Designer to own and shape the core product experience at CompanyCam. This role requires strong product judgment, deep design craft, and the ability to elevate the work of the design team.

What You'll Do

  • Lead foundational product design across the core product, shaping workflows, information architecture, and experience coherence as the product evolves.
  • Design high-quality, intuitive experiences that simplify complexity while maintaining consistency across an evolving product ecosystem, including new agentic and AI-driven surfaces.
  • Use design to shape product priorities, scope, and strategic decisions, extending influence far beyond execution.
  • Actively explore and integrate AI tools into your process to work smarter, faster, and with more insight.
  • Mentor designers through clear feedback, strong craft and design rationale, and visible practice that sharpens decision-making, strengthens judgment, and improves both team process and product outcomes.
  • Work in tight partnership with product managers and engineering teams to plan, prioritize, and ship.
  • Lead with empathy and clarity, helping teams align around shared goals and a strong customer perspective.

The Impact You'll Have

  • Defining and protecting the core product experience, ensuring workflows, information architecture, and surfaces remain cohesive as the product grows.
  • Raising the quality, judgment, and consistency of the broader design team through mentorship, leadership, and visible excellence in your own work.
  • Influencing product strategy and organizational decision-making by connecting design execution to broader business, customer, and operational outcomes.
  • Driving solutions that improve long-term simplicity, scalability, product coherence, and genuinely improves the lives of our customers.
  • Helping CompanyCam scale faster without sacrificing usability, foundational quality, or the integrity of the customer experience.

Core Requirements (non-negotiable)

  • 7+ years of product design experience, including time operating at a senior or lead level.
  • Strong mobile and web product design experience, preferably in SaaS or similar experiences with complex and varied user personas.
  • Proven ability to lead high-impact design work in ambiguous or foundational product areas, not just feature execution.
  • Deep expertise in UX, systems thinking, and workflow design, with the ability to maintain coherence across complex product ecosystems.
  • Demonstrated track record of raising design quality and mentoring a growing team.
  • Strong ability to balance long-term product vision with rapid, iterative execution that drives learning while maintaining product cohesion.
  • AI-native mindset, with genuine enthusiasm for designing agentic and AI-powered experiences.

Nice to Have

  • Experience owning or significantly shaping core product experiences, including information architecture, hierarchy, and cross-surface consistency.
  • Experience designing for trades work or similar field environment personas.
  • Formal education in Human-Computer Interaction, Product Design, or a related field.
  • Experience mentoring, hiring, or formally leading other designers.
  • Demonstrated AI workflow fluency and excitement for integrating modern tools into design practice.

Benefits & Compensation

  • This is a salaried position at CompanyCam.
  • The starting salary range is $178,000–$200,000 per year and is based on experience.
  • We also offer meaningful equity and other benefits.
  • CompanyCam is an equal-opportunity employer committed to respect, inclusion, and growth.
