Director of Product Design at Beaconbiosignals · LumiJobs

Responsibilities

Lead and coach a team of three senior product designers, helping each of them grow their craft, expand their impact, and build a clear path forward in their careers.
Craft, iterate, and execute on a vision for what product design should be at Beacon, and translate that vision into a concrete plan for how the function grows alongside the business.
Operate as a player-coach, particularly in your first year: taking on design work yourself where it sets the standard, demonstrating the practices you want to see, and raising the bar by example rather than by directive.
Own prioritization across the full breadth of Beacon's design surface, from device and mobile to web, print, and business process, making the tradeoffs that determine where a small, senior team spends its time and ensuring no single designer becomes a bottleneck for the company.
Build the cross-functional connections that design depends on, partnering closely with Device Engineering, Platform, Clinical Operations, Logistics, Support, and Quality to bring design into decisions early rather than at the end.
Establish the processes, standards, and shared systems that let design scale: a coherent design language across hardware and software, reusable patterns, and design reviews that improve quality without slowing delivery.
Ensure design's contribution to Beacon's regulated products is rigorous and well-documented, partnering with Quality and Regulatory on usability and human factors work for our cleared devices.
Own the headcount plan, budget, and vendor relationships for the function, and make the case for investment in design with the same rigor you'd bring to a design problem.
Develop a deep understanding of everyone Beacon serves: patients using our devices unsupervised at home, the clinical staff and healthcare providers who care for them, the site teams running trials, and the sponsors who rely on the insights we deliver. Build the research practice that keeps that understanding current.
Develop an equally deep understanding of how Beacon itself operates, so that design serves our internal teams as well as our external users, from device provisioning and logistics through support and scientific services.
See around corners: anticipate where design debt, inconsistency, or unowned experience problems are accumulating, and address them before they become urgent.
