Lead Product Designer

We are hiring a Lead Product Designer in Mumbai for a team working across Figma, UI design, design systems. 7-9 years of experience.

Figma, UI design, design systems, with Prototyping, Accessibility, Variables across the wider stack.

• 7-9 years with Figma in a working team.
• Hands-on depth in UI design, design systems, enough to defend a decision you made in each, and name the one you rejected.
• Working familiarity with Prototyping, Accessibility, Variables.
• You have led work across more than one person's remit: setting the direction, holding it, and being answerable when it slipped.
• The ability to explain a decision to somebody who did not make it. Every round here includes it.

Not the focus of the interview, but part of the job. Teams ask about these, so be ready to talk about them:

• Handoff that survives engineering: specs, states, edge cases
• Accessibility to WCAG AA: contrast, target size, focus order
• Enough HTML and CSS to know what you are asking for
• Prototyping, and having watched somebody use one

Expect to be asked how you would approach a problem in each of the areas above, and why you would not take the obvious route. Then one level down on whichever answer was weakest.
