Senior Product Designer (2-Year Term Position)

Takeaway • Toronto, Canada 🇨🇦

Hybrid Full-time Senior

As a Senior Product Designer, you will focus on critical user problems and propose innovative solutions while collaborating with cross-functional teams. You will operate across the full product lifecycle, from concept to delivery, ensuring high-quality implementation.

Responsibilities

  • Focus on the most critical user problems, bringing clarity to ambiguous spaces and proposing innovative, evidence-based solutions that balance user needs with business priorities
  • Rapidly explore and refine ideas: produce process flows, user journeys, service maps, wireframes, interaction models, visual design mockups, and high-fidelity prototypes to clearly communicate behaviour and intent
  • Operate across the full product lifecycle — from early concept and framing through delivery — producing documentation, low- and high-fidelity prototypes, and polished UI that meets or elevates product quality standards
  • Partner closely with engineering and product management to shape scope, build cross-functional alignment, and ensure high-quality implementation; present work with clarity and influence at all levels of the organisation
  • Collaborate deeply with UX researchers and independently conduct usability studies when needed; translate insights into clear design direction and measurable improvements
  • Work with product management to define and evolve the design roadmap, anticipate dependencies, manage timelines, and advocate for design priorities across multiple streams of work

Requirements

  • 6+ years of experience in a UX/UI or Product Design role with a strong track record of leading complex or cross-team initiatives
  • Ability to drive work end-to-end — from shaping ambiguous problem spaces and defining direction to delivering polished, production-ready solutions with clear rationale
  • Experience guiding teams within agile/sprint-based environments, influencing both product strategy and execution
  • Deep cross-functional collaboration experience with product, research, data, engineering, and operations, with the ability to align stakeholders toward a shared outcome
  • Expertise designing for multi-platform ecosystems (iOS, Android, responsive web) and making platform-aware decisions that balance craft, usability, and scalability
  • Proven experience evolving, governing, and contributing to design systems at scale, including patterns, tokens, documentation, and cross-team adoption
  • Strong command of user research practices, including unmoderated testing tools (Maze, usertesting.com), and an ability to translate insights into actionable design direction
  • Advanced prototyping skills (Figma, etc.) to explore interactions, communicate intent, and reduce ambiguity for partners and engineers
  • Confident communicator capable of presenting to senior leadership, influencing decisions, and advocating for design quality across the organization
  • Extensive experience facilitating workshops, co-creation sessions, and design sprints that drive alignment, momentum, and clarity in complex problem spaces
  • A strong sense of ownership with the ability to think strategically, anticipate downstream impacts, creatively solve problems, and proactively advance business and product objectives
