Senior Product Designers at Xero are responsible for designing beautiful, enabling and meaningful

Product and Technology on med-large scale projects within a product area of a portfolio.
As Senior Product Designer you will work primarily in the UK Tax team, part of the broader EMEA Design team.

What you'll do

- Conduct desk research including domain and competitor analysis, interaction/design trends and 'best of' examples
- Analyse relevant considerations such as research insights (when not directly involved), product strategy and roadmaps, technical environment and constraints
- Contribute to the definition and articulation of ‘the problem’ – challenging assumptions and 'pre-set' thinking around solutions, agreeing the purpose, principles and vision
- Create frameworks (read wireframes low/high-fi, visual frameworks, content/data models etc) which articulate the components, journeys and elements required to solve 'the problem'
- Develop phased design solutions that bridge the gap between a future state and current patterns, XUI design system and other relevant constraints and considerations
- Collaborate with other designers to test ideas, share challenges, provide feedback and build quality in your practice
- Collaborate with content designers to ensure content within an experience is consistent, 'fit for purpose' and meets customer needs
- Develop detailed interactions and interfaces which are smart and contextually relevant
- Facilitate cross functional team workshops – to bring everyone together at key points in the process and around key decisions
What you'll bring with you
- Experience working on large design projects
- Experience building and iterating on a product or experiences based on usage patterns, user feedback and an evolving strategic landscape
- A portfolio that demonstrates high-quality design outcomes, contributing to user experience and business value
- Experience across the entire design process, with mastery in executing elegant interfaces
