Co-Founder @ Digital Waffle – The go-to partner when scaling your team within Tech, Digital, Marketing & Data – without the usual bullsh*t.

A VC-backed, California-based tech company in the AI-powered product discovery space is looking for a Senior UX Design Lead to take charge of its user experience strategy. If you’re used to the pace and ambiguity of a start-up—and thrive on solving complex design problems in fast-moving environments—this is your chance to make a lasting impact in a business that’s scaling fast.

You’ll own the full UX lifecycle—from customer research and journey mapping to high-fidelity design and prototyping. Working closely with product, engineering, and commercial teams, you’ll bring structure to complexity and lead design thinking across a powerful, AI-enabled platform.

This is a UK-based, heavily remote, but requires face-to-face time. With access to Regus office spaces nationwide and face-to-face collaboration days in London a few times per month.

What You’ll Be Doing

Lead end-to-end design—from research and IA to prototyping and testing
Build scalable information architectures to support complex workflows
Plan and conduct user research to inform product decisions
Drive discovery sessions to identify opportunities and validate ideas
Design intuitive interfaces that balance usability and business outcomes
Collaborate across functions to align UX with product and engineering strategy
Champion accessibility, inclusivity, and user advocacy at every stage

What They’re Looking For

10+ years’ experience in product/UX design, with 3+ years in a senior or lead role
Skilled in Figma, plus experience with other modern prototyping tools
Proven ability to work on complex systems or B2B/enterprise platforms
Familiarity with AI-enabled design tools and workflows
Strong communication and stakeholder influencing skills
UK-based with ability to join in-person team sessions in London several times per month

What’s on Offer

Competitive salary, depending on experience
Remote-first working with Regus access across the UK
Regular in-person meetups in London with the team
Room to shape the design function and influence product strategy
Work alongside a globally distributed, fast-moving product and engineering team
Career development, learning support, and mentorship

This role is perfect for a design leader who’s energised by early-stage challenges, eager to build standout experiences, and ready to play a core role in a VC-backed, high-growth tech company.
