Strategic Design Leadership

• Lead end-to-end UX design for 2-3 concurrent product initiatives across BHN's portfolio, from discovery through delivery
• Conduct and synthesize primary user research to inform product strategy and design decisions
• Partner directly with product management and engineering leadership to shape roadmaps and advocate for user needs
• Define and evangelize UX vision across cross-functional teams, ensuring design is positioned as a strategic partner rather than a downstream dependency
• Present design rationale and research findings to executive stakeholders with clarity and confidence

Hands-On Design Excellence

• Create high-fidelity prototypes, interaction models, and design specifications that bridge strategic thinking with technical implementation
• Contribute to and extend our design system, ensuring consistency and quality across our product portfolio
• Design for complex technical environments including modern web standards and responsive experiences
• Ensure accessibility compliance (WCAG 2.1 AA+) is embedded in every design decision, not an afterthought

Technical Fluency & AI Integration

• Collaborate effectively with engineering teams using modern development practices
• Explore and implement AI-augmented design workflows including generative UI, automated design-to-code pipelines, and LLM-assisted research synthesis
• Stay current with emerging AI/ML capabilities and identify opportunities to enhance both internal design processes and end-user experiences
• Understand technical constraints and opportunities well enough to have informed conversations about implementation tradeoffs

Team Collaboration & Mentorship

• Mentor and provide feedback to other designers on the team, fostering a culture of craft excellence and strategic thinking
• Participate in design critiques, contributing constructive perspectives that elevate the work
• Collaborate across our distributed design organization, sharing insights and patterns that benefit multiple product areas
• Contribute to design team culture through thought leadership, knowledge sharing, and process improvement

Required

• 12+ years of UX design experience with at least 3 years leading complex, multi-stakeholder projects
• Portfolio demonstrating end-to-end design process from research through high-fidelity delivery, with clear articulation of your role and impact
• Proven ability to conduct generative and evaluative user research and translate insights into actionable design decisions
• Experience creating or working with design systems to ensure consistency and scalability
• Comfortable working with modern web technologies and development workflows—you understand how your designs become code
• Experience designing for accessibility (WCAG standards) as a core practice, not a compliance checkbox
• Excellent communication skills with ability to tailor messaging for different audiences (executives, engineers, designers)
• Track record of shipping successful products in fast-paced, technically complex environments

Preferred

• Active engagement with AI tools and trends in the design space (ChatGPT, Midjourney, Figma AI, v0, etc.)
• Familiarity with modern frontend frameworks (React, Vue, etc.) or willingness to rapidly learn
• Experience designing B2B enterprise products, payment/financial experiences, or multi-sided marketplace platforms
• Background in design systems governance or component library management
• Experience with Figma dev mode, design-to-code workflows, or AI-assisted prototyping tools
• Understanding of multi-brand or white-label design challenges

What Sets You Apart

• You're equally comfortable talking accessibility standards with engineers and business strategy with product leaders
• You see AI as a tool to augment your craft, not replace it—and you're actively experimenting with how to leverage it
• You're energized by technical constraints rather than frustrated by them, seeing them as design challenges to solve
• You default to showing your thinking through prototypes and artifacts rather than endless meetings
• You believe designers should be in the room where strategy happens, and you have the communication skills to earn that seat
