Job Description
Director, Product Design
ServiceTitan
• Hire, train, mentor, and retain a high-performing team of product designers and design managers to execute our overarching product vision and strategy with a measurable impact on our business. • Own the end-to-end design of back office workflows spanning AP, AR, purchasing, inventory, project financials, and month-end close — designing them as a unified system, not a collection of features. • Lead through complexity: back office users — field operators, office managers, controllers— have high stakes and low tolerance for friction. • Help the team deeply understand who they're designing for. • Partner with peer teams to evolve our product development process and ensure projects are well-defined, high impact, and successfully executed. • Build the right standards and lean processes to ensure the correct tradeoff between quality, capabilities, and time while meeting a consistently high bar for design and overall user experience. • Contribute to product strategy and roadmaps that will help us to achieve our company vision and objectives. • Be an active mentor for designers and design managers, helping them build context, strong decision-making skills, and empathy for our users by providing feedback to help strengthen the team. • Inspire a user-centric culture within the team and across the organization. • Influence the Product roadmap meaningfully and focus relentlessly on supporting cross-functional teams to solve real problems for our users and ensure to prioritize User-Centered Design projects. • Responsible for overall team performance and health, resource allocation, project prioritization, team allocation, trade-off discussions and building a culture of design excellence. • Understand the users deeply across different segments through research, user insights and lead product design to drive measurable outcomes. • Drive accessibility into products through inclusive design, awareness, and innovation. Report directly to the VP of Experience Design and ambitiously scale a design team to match the needs and strategy of the platform.

- Experience designing for agentic or AI-driven experiences — especially where users need to review, approve, or override system-generated outputs.
- Passion for improving User Experiences at scale while supporting business objectives with the ability to help measure those improvements via both quantitative and qualitative methods.
- Proven track record for solving difficult UX design problems and simplifying complex workflows to shape intuitive and delightful interfaces for customers.
- Be a strong leader and coach, dedicated to helping your team reach their full potential, effectively delivering direct feedback to product designers in their work and fostering a culture of healthy design processes across the entire company.
- Top-notch prioritization and organizational skills. Excited by the idea of managing multiple responsibilities at once and ruthlessly prioritizing the highest impact work.
- Excellent communication skills with strong analytical abilities, conflict resolution, and negotiation skills with the ability to work well across various levels of the organization.
- Ability to lead major cross-functional initiatives in a fast paced environment, building project plans and roadmaps, securing and leading resources, and identifying and removing roadblocks.
Benefits
- Flexible time off with ample learning and development opportunities to continue growing your career.
- Comprehensive onboarding program, leadership training for Titans at all levels, and other programs and events.
- Great work is rewarded through Bonusly, peer-nominated awards, and more.
- Company-paid medical, dental, and vision (with 100% employer paid options and 90% coverage for dependents), FSA and HSA, 401k match, and telehealth options including memberships to One Medical.
