About This Role
About Easygenerator
We’re a fast-growing EdTech scale-up on a mission to revolutionize learning through our award-winning authoring tool.
Used by global giants like Kellogg’s, T-Mobile, and Siemens, Easygenerator helps organizations simplify knowledge sharing: fast, easy, and impactful.
We’re an
AI-first company
, utilizing cutting-edge tools in both our products and internal workflows.
You’ll gain hands-on AI experience and develop a future-proof skillset while contributing to a fast-moving, high-impact product.
About The Role
We’re looking for a Head of Design to lead our design function.
This is not a “maintain what exists” role.
This is an org-building role.
You’ll define how design works at Easygenerator, raise the bar on craft, and shape how design influences product decisions.
At the same time, this is not a pure management role.
We expect you to stay close to the work.
You’ll be involved in key product areas, set the standard through your own output, and actively shape product experiences.
You’ll work closely with Product, Engineering, and Analytics leadership to ensure we build products that are not just functional, but intuitive, elegant, and differentiated.
What You’ll Do
- Build the design function
- Define what “great design” means at Easygenerator
- Set up how design works across teams (process, rituals, quality bar)
- Scale the team thoughtfully as we grow
- Introduce structure without slowing teams down
- Raise the bar on craft
- Be the person who sets the standard for design quality
- Push for simplicity, clarity, and strong interaction design
- Ensure we move beyond “good enough SaaS UX” to something differentiated
- Champion design as a core discipline, not a support function
- Stay hands-on where it matters
- Contribute directly to high-impact product areas
- Review and elevate work across teams
- Lead by example through your own design output
- Shape product direction
- Partner with Product and Engineering on strategy and discovery
- Help teams move from vague problems to clear solutions
- Bring strong opinions on UX, interaction patterns, and product direction
- Build a strong team
- Coach and develop designers
- Create a culture of ownership, feedback, and high standards
- Hire exceptional talent as we scale
Must-have Experience
- What we’re looking for
- 8+ years in product design, with at least 2+ years leading designers or teams
- Proven experience building or significantly evolving a design function in a product-led company
- Experience working on complex B2B SaaS products (multi-feature, multi-user, workflow-heavy)
- Track record of improving both product quality and team performance
Education
- Bachelor’s degree in Design, HCI, Psychology, or a related field
- A strong portfolio can substitute for formal education
- Tooling & craft
- Expert in modern design tools (e.g. Figma, AI tooling)
- Experience building and maintaining design systems at scale
- Strong understanding of interaction design, UX patterns, and usability principles
- Familiarity with prototyping tools and workflows
- Comfortable working closely with engineers (understanding of front-end constraints is expected)
- You are an org builder
- You’ve built or significantly evolved a design function before
- You know how to introduce structure without creating bureaucracy
- You can scale a team while keeping quality high
You Care Deeply About Craft
- You have a strong product design background
- You have high standards and push others to reach them
- You notice details others miss
- You are hands-on
- You’re comfortable jumping into the work when needed
- You lead through doing, not just directing
- You enjoy being close to product decisions
- You think like a product leader
- You understand product strategy, not just design execution
- You can challenge PMs and engineers constructively
- You balance user needs, business goals, and speed
- You thrive in scale-ups
- You’re comfortable with ambiguity and changing priorities
- You prefer action over process
- You know how to create focus in a fast-moving environment
- Nice to have
- Experience with AI-driven products or designing AI-assisted workflows
- Experience working in international, distributed teams
- Exposure to analytics, experimentation, or user research practices
