Principal Product Designer

Join PermitFlow as a Principal Product Designer, where you will be the most senior individual contributor on the design team. You will set the vision and craft bar for our most complex product surfaces, define how automation and AI are integrated into our product, and ensure our users understand and trust the product's output. This hands-on role requires a strong background in designing dense B2B software, with a focus on workflow-heavy products.

• Definir la visión y la dirección estratégica para las áreas de producto de mayor impacto, desde la identificación del problema hasta la ejecución pixel-perfect.
• Colaborar con el liderazgo de diseño, producto e ingeniería para dar forma a la hoja de ruta del producto, aportando un punto de vista sólido y bien fundamentado sobre hacia dónde debe ir el producto.
• Elevar el nivel de calidad en todo el equipo de diseño al modelar un trabajo excepcional, fortalecer nuestra cultura de crítica y mentorizar a los diseñadores sin gestionarlos.
• A demonstrated ability to operate as a force multiplier: elevating the work of other designers, defining what great looks like, and bringing structure to problem spaces that do not yet have any
• Our team primarily uses Figma, Notion, and Linear. You should be comfortable with those or similar tooling, with comfort making tooling recommendations to leadership as new horizon models & solutions become available
• High tolerance for ambiguity. We are moving fast, and our design, product, and engineering processes are constantly in flux. We want someone who thrives in that and helps improve it
• Strong systems thinking paired with exceptional interaction and visual craft. You sweat the details just as well as you guide strategy
• Excellent communication and storytelling. You can articulate design rationale and win alignment across designers, engineers, executives, and customers
• All applications must link to or include a portfolio. We want to see a track record of leading high-craft, complex products from concept through launch, with clear evidence of design decisions you drove and their impact
• Technical fluency. We value designers who understand the realities of implementation and can partner deeply with engineers. Hands-on comfort with code is a plus
• Experience designing AI-powered or highly technical products, or a clear point of view on how to make AI legible, trustworthy, and controllable for users
• 10+ years designing dense B2B software, with deep experience in workflow-heavy products and real complexity
