Note: The job is a remote job and is open to candidates in USA. Impiricus is an agentic commercialization platform for healthcare that helps life sciences teams understand physician intent and coordinate clinical and commercial resources. The Director, Product Design will lead product design across the portfolio while remaining hands-on, driving user discovery, design quality, design systems, and AI-assisted product experiences across mobile, web, and platform products.
Responsibilities
- Own product design across the portfolio and set the bar for the function
- Stay hands-on on the highest-stakes surfaces when the team needs senior design depth
- Hold released product to a consistent standard for clarity, accessibility, and workflow fit
- Cover mobile, consumer-grade interaction where it applies, and complex health tech platform work in one practice
- Plan and run user discovery with HCPs, patients, and internal users, and hold the team to the same bar on their surfaces
- Turn research and feedback into design direction the product team can act on
- Build durable understanding of physician and operator workflow and bring it into roadmap conversations early
- Partner with Product on measurement so experience changes can be judged after launch
- Own the product design system: components, patterns, tokens, and how they are governed in production
- Maintain and extend the design framework so standards stay usable in code and in AI-assisted build flows, including homegrown tools the company builds on
- Design AI-powered product experiences where the roadmap requires them: conversational flows, agent interactions, and the UX guardrails that keep those surfaces trustworthy in a regulated context
- Partner with AI and engineering leadership on platform and builder UI so design quality does not stop at traditional product screens
- Establish critique, review, and quality standards for the whole design team, including work on AI surfaces
- Partner with the product lead(s) and engineering lead(s) from discovery through delivery on each scrum team
- Represent design in product planning so experience risk and opportunity show up before build starts
- Partner with Engineering on feasibility, implementation fidelity, and front-end delivery
- Partner with Compliance and MLR where regulatory requirements shape product UI, including fair balance and required disclosure in the interface
Skills
- 7+ years in product design with a portfolio of complex, workflow-heavy shipped products
- Experience across mobile and web, including platform or multi-surface products
- Track record owning a design system or framework in production, not a library that never shipped
- Experience designing for AI-assisted, conversational, or agentic product surfaces, or equivalent platform/builder UI
- Track record running user discovery, not only taking requirements from PM
- Experience managing designers or standing up a small design function
- Strong hands-on craft in interaction design, visual design, and prototyping; comfortable as a player-coach, not a manager who stepped out of the work
- Credible partner to product and engineering leadership without needing to own the PM role
- Health tech, life sciences, or other regulated product design experience strongly preferred
- Product management experience is a plus, not a requirement
