About the Role

Here at LNRS Insurance, our company goals and the quality of our users’ experiences are deeply connected. As such, Product research and design is fundamental discipline for translating high level business objectives into impactful and satisfying user experiences.

This role, Senior Product Designer, is in charge of all research, design and testing efforts for their area of focus (predominantly a web-app mobile-first product offering). You set the gold standard for UX/ UI for your area and demonstrate successful approaches to reflect the business challenge through user-centered designs. While doing so, you’ll also help foster a design culture of humility, growth, and satisfaction for the design team as a whole. Beyond the tactical UX/ UI skills, a successful senior product designer on this team demonstrates superb relationship management, steadfast ownership and a constant desire to improve the experiences we deliver to our users. 

All Product Designers on this team are empowered to think strategically. You will be given the problem to solve, but you retain the space and autonomy to decide how to solve them. Within that space, guidance and mentorship will always be present and available to you. 

About You 

  • Desire to build and own the direction for discovery, design, and testing exercises across the double diamond process model
  • Willing to challenge the problems that are given to them as well as the solutions they propose
  • Deep experience in a variety of mobile design efforts represented through a portfolio of designs, case studies, or presentation decks
  • Brings humility to their own work and expects the same from their teammates
  • Shares their work early and often, knowing designs shouldn’t be ‘done’ by the time they’re reviewed by their team
  • Wants high collaboration with product managers, developers, business analysts and other designers
  • Keeps a steady pulse on how ‘best in class’ for our industry is evolving and translates that into future iterations of our users’ experiences
  • Ability to quickly iterate through solutions while knowing the point of diminishing returns for any point in the design process
  • Experienced with growing and maintaining flexible design systems, preferably using Figma
  • 5-7 years experience in Product Design or UX/ UI Design, ideally working within a Product-driven team or organization

What You’ll Accomplish

  • For the experience you own, you will define what success means for our users and will bind that success to our company goals.
  • From beginning to end, you will have projects that prove real, tangible business value to the UX opportunities you explore.
  • Throughout your work, you will demonstrate the value of the UX Process and will share out successful case studies and exercises that the larger organization can learn from
  • Within the organization, you will create true advocates and trusted partners of the UX Process.
  • You will drive measurable impact at a fast pace with a keen focus on customer value, adoption, and satisfaction.
  • By re-imagining our mobile experiences, you will be helping craft a wholly unique experience that is already changing an industry from the ground up – making a real world impact for people and doing it with awesome team members.
