Our product design team works across the full breadth of the platform, from the foundational canvas experience to the emerging AI-powered capabilities that are redefining how teams think, create, and build together. We're a team that cares deeply about craft, moves with intention, and believes that great design is inseparable from great outcomes. As Miro continues to grow and evolve, the design team is scaling to meet that ambition. We're investing in leadership that can raise the bar on both the quality of our work and the health of our teams, people who understand that building a great design org and shipping great product experiences are the same job. ## About the Role As Director of Product Design, you will lead a small team and be an active designer yourself. This is not a role where leadership means distance from the work. You'll be the creative director for your area of the product, shape how design thinks about problems and solutions, and then roll up your sleeves to ensure the execution matches the vision. This role is critical because Miro is at an inflection point. AI is changing what collaboration software can and should be, and the design decisions made now will shape how teams around the world work for years to come. You'll have the scope, the resources, and the mandate to do some of the most consequential design work of your career. ## What you’ll do - Set the creative vision for your product area and hold the bar for it — not just in words, but in the work itself. You'll define what good looks like, then stay close enough to the craft to know when you're getting there and when you're not. - Lead, mentor, and grow a team of product designers across multiple levels, building a culture where rigorous critique and psychological safety exist in the same room. - Get your hands dirty at the moments that matter,  shaping early frameworks when the problem is still fuzzy, writing the interaction logic that unlocks a stuck design, pushing the details on a surface that's going to be seen by millions. - Drive design strategy across the full Discover, Define, and Deliver lifecycle, making sure the team is asking the right questions before they're crafting the right answers. - Align stakeholders across Product, Engineering, and Analytics around a shared design direction, and hold that direction with conviction through the ambiguity and tradeoffs of real product development. - Run design critiques that are genuinely useful: direct, and focused on making the work better rather than making everyone comfortable. - Spot gaps in team capability and make the case for what we need to build — through hiring, development, or how we structure the work. ## What you’ll need - 10+ years of product design experience, with at least 4 years leading and managing teams in a technology company. - A portfolio that demonstrates both strong strategic thinking and high-quality craft — work that you shaped at the system level alongside work where your hands were directly on the pixels. - Proven experience designing AI-powered or AI-adjacent product experiences, with a clear point of view on what good looks like when the system is dynamic, generative, or probabilistic. - Deep fluency with modern design tools, particularly Figma, and comfort working within or evolving a mature design system. ## What's in it for you We want you to feel supported, connected, and ready to grow. Our global benefits package generally includes equity, a wellbeing benefit, a WFH equipment allowance, and an annual Learning & Development stipend. Join a diverse team where you can do your best work. Full benefits may differ per location. If you would like to learn more about location-specific benefits, please refer to our [Global Miro benefits board.](https://miro.com/app/board/uXjVG8Fi8Yc=/?moveToWidget=3458764661021134968&cot=10) The reasonably estimated salary range is specific to New York and may not be applicable to other locations. Final compensation and total package components will be based on individual factors such as the candidate's skills, qualifications, and experience. The range for this role is: New York salary range $237,000—$356,000 USD ## About Miro Miro is a visual workspace for innovation that enables distributed teams of any size to build the next big thing.
