Remote Senior APAC Property Management Product Designer B2B Reporting Figma Documentation Procurement

Requirements

• Strong product judgment and a track record of delivering consistently high‑quality design solutions in complex product environments. • Typically 5–8 years of experience designing and shipping web‑based SaaS, B2B, or enterprise products with real users at scale. • A portfolio demonstrating end‑to‑end ownership, including problem framing, exploration, execution, and measurable impact. • Good judgment around when to go deep on research vs when fast validation is sufficient, balancing rigor with pace, and familiarity with using research platforms (e.g. Great Question or similar) to manage recruitment, insights, and follow-up. • Proven ability to work autonomously on ambiguous problems, identify what matters most, and move work forward without excessive direction. • Experience designing data‑dense, information‑rich interfaces such as dashboards, tables, filters, comparison views, or reporting tools. • Strong systems thinking, with the ability to reason across workflows, roles, permissions, and interconnected product surfaces. • Comfort making trade‑offs between quality, speed, and technical constraints, and clearly articulating those decisions. • Fluency with modern design tools and workflows (Figma, prototyping, design systems, documentation). • Clear written and verbal communication skills, with the ability to present work and rationale to cross‑functional partners. • Willingness to collaborate across time zones, including working later in the afternoon or early evening to partner effectively with Australia‑based colleagues. • Experience designing and shipping AI‑assisted or AI‑augmented product experiences, not just exploratory concepts. • Familiarity with agentic workflows, conversational UX, and emerging patterns for AI‑driven interfaces. • Experience with voice interaction design, multimodal inputs, or non‑traditional UI patterns. • Experience working closely with data, analytics, or platform teams on products where accuracy, trust, and explainability matter. • Background in complex domains such as marketplaces, procurement, operations tooling, analytics platforms, or financial systems. • Demonstrated progression in scope, ownership, and impact across previous roles. • Comfort with design engineering techniques, including working close to code, understanding front‑end architectures, or prototyping with code where it improves speed, fidelity, or collaboration. • Hands‑on use of AI‑driven design tools (e.g. ChatGPT, Claude Code, Cursor, Lovable, Figma Make, or similar) to accelerate thinking, prototyping, or workflow efficiency.

Responsibilities

• Partner closely with Product Managers and Engineering Leads to shape problem definitions, scope work, and sequence delivery. • Collaborate with Engineers to ensure designs are feasible, performant, and thoughtfully implemented. • Work with Design Leadership to align on quality, product experience principles, and design standards. • Adhere to, uphold, and actively champion HappyCo’s design system to ensure consistency, quality, and scalability across products. Use the system by default, and work with Design Leadership to evolve components, patterns, or guidance when genuine user needs are not met – treating system gaps as exceptions to be addressed, not reasons to bypass it. • Participate actively in critiques, maintaining a high bar for craft, clarity, accessibility, and usability. • Contribute to documentation, shared patterns, and ways of working that improve team effectiveness.
