How will you make an impact?
We are looking for a (Senior) Product Designer who will be working on the end-to-end product design process.
As a Senior Product Designer at Hygraph, you will be a key actor in realising our vision of the next step in CMS evolution - an agentic content platform. You will report to the Head of Product and work closely with the Creative Director to share ideas and knowledge.
What you will be working on
Partner with Product and Engineering teams to define problem statements, conduct user research and shape both long-term vision and immediate tactical goals on the Product Design front.
Execute the full product design spectrum, spanning early-stage discovery and wire-framing through to final, production-grade UI.
Make key decisions in Hygraph’s next functional and visual steps towards the agentic content platform vision.
Champion design excellence through regular reviews with leadership and the broader product team.
Use AI tools to speed up the design process—using LLMs to summarize research and generative tools for rapid wireframing and early-stage exploration.
Requirements
Our expectations from you
5+ years of experience at high-growth startups, specifically designing B2B SaaS products.
Expertise in the full design stack, with a proven track record in UI, UX, advanced prototyping, and user research.
Extensive experience as an individual contributor, with the ability to work autonomously and take full accountability for complex projects.
Ability to navigate the startup design role: push for excellence, but prioritise shipping fast iterations to learn quickly.
High proficiency with design and prototyping tools and having a decent understanding of front-end implementation (you don’t have to code, but it helps in collaborating with the engineers).
Keen to learn and always being up-to-date with the latest improvements in technology.
Ability to leverage AI tools to accelerate the design lifecycle
