Position Overview

We are seeking a Director, Product Experience to define how customers experience and derive value from our evolving SaaS platform.

Why This Role Matters

Our product experience is evolving from separate, primarily application-level workflows toward an integrated SaaS ecosystem supporting graphical, programmatic, conversational, AI-assisted, and agentic interactions.

Oversee design quality, accessibility, research, design-system governance, capability building, and capacity planning.

Own end-to-end customer journeys across workflows, graphical interfaces, APIs, and AI interactions, with a view broader than any single screen or feature.

Determine how interaction modes should work together and when experiences should be graphical, programmatic, conversational, AI-assisted, autonomous, or a combination.

Ensure existing and acquired capabilities come together as coherent customer experiences rather than separate product or technology features.

Use customer research, journey mapping, prototyping, and validation to identify friction and inform major product decisions.

Establish experience metrics and measurement frameworks that connect usability, customer satisfaction, adoption, task effectiveness, and workflow efficiency to product and business outcomes.

Define human-AI experience principles covering assistance, autonomy, transparency, trust, customer control, explainability, and handoffs.
