Title: Director of Product Design Location: USA (Remote) Job Description: Affinity is a relationship intelligence platform that helps dealmakers find, manage, and close more deals by using the power of their network. Investors, dealmakers, and operators rely on us to turn relationship signals into action. Design is core to how we deliver on that promise. As our Director of Product Design, you'll lead and grow our product design team, set the bar for design and research, and partner closely with Product and Engineering leadership on product vision and strategy to shape what Affinity becomes over the next several years. You'll report directly to the SVP of Product. This is a pivotal moment for design at Affinity. We're rethinking how AI shows up across the product, expanding into new market segments, and raising our standards for quality and execution. We need a design leader with a strong point of view on craft, on team, and on how the discipline itself is evolving. What you'll do: - Build and lead a high-performing product design team: hire, coach, and grow designers as the team scales. - Set and uphold the bar for craft and quality. Define what "great" looks like at Affinity, and hold the team to it across every surface we ship. - Partner with Product and Engineering leadership on strategy, roadmap, and the operating model that gets us to durable outcomes. - Bring a clear point of view on how design practice is changing in AI-native products. Translate that into how the team works, what we ship, and how we measure quality. - Own the end-to-end design experience across our enterprise product surface, from core CRM workflows to mobile to MCP to new product areas. - Establish processes and rituals that enable the team to move quickly without compromising on quality. - Serve as a senior leader at Affinity, contributing to strategic planning beyond the design function. What we're looking for: - 10+ years in product design, with at least 7 years building, coaching, and leading high-performing design and UX teams. - A strategic mindset. You can connect design decisions to business outcomes, weigh trade-offs across short and long horizons, and influence company strategy. - A clear, considered perspective on design craft and how it's evolving with AI. You've thought carefully about what changes when AI is a primary surface, what doesn't, and where the craft bar should sit. - Deep experience designing enterprise software. You understand the workflows, complexity, and stakes of building for professional users. - Demonstrated taste and craft in interaction design, visual design, research, and product thinking, backed by a portfolio of work you've shipped or led. - A track record of partnering closely with Product and Engineering leaders on both strategy and execution. - Strong written and verbal communication. You can rally a team, influence peers, and represent design clearly to non-designers. - High empathy as a manager. You build trust, give direct feedback, and grow people.
