Product Designer – Enterprise Software, Design System

Responsibilities

• Create and evolve our design system, ensuring consistency, scalability, and accessibility across all platform modules (Forms, Dashboards, Training, Assessment, and more).
• Design complex enterprise interfaces: role‑based views, multi‑tenant dashboards, data visualization, and workflow tools used by organizations with layered hierarchies.
• Partner closely with product managers, engineers, and external stakeholders to define interaction patterns, user flows, and information architecture for a platform serving implementation partners, government stakeholders, school directors, and teachers.
• Build and maintain a component library in Figma (or equivalent) that works across web and mobile platforms.
• Use AI‑augmented design workflows to move fast: leverage tools like Figma AI, Claude Code, Cursor, or equivalent to generate design variations, prototype interactions, and bridge design‑to‑code handoff.
• Run usability tests to validate designs, especially across diverse user contexts (urban offices, rural classrooms, varying connectivity).
• Co‑design quantitative experiments to measure the impact of design decisions.
• Support cross‑functional squads, contributing to shaping and building within fast iteration loops.

Requirements

• The desire to use your skills to bring about positive social change.
• A portfolio demonstrating work on complex enterprise or B2B software: multi‑role platforms, data‑heavy dashboards, or workflow tools.
• Strong experience creating and evolving design systems (component libraries, design tokens, documentation).
• Deep familiarity with Figma and modern design tooling.
• Fluency with AI‑powered design and prototyping tools (e.g. Claude Code, Cursor, Figma AI).
• You use AI to accelerate your workflow, not replace your judgment.
• Experience designing for both web and mobile platforms.
• Comfort working across cultural contexts and designing for users with varying levels of digital literacy.
• Willingness to travel to implementation countries such as Kenya, Nigeria, and additional markets as we expand. Expect approximately 6‑8 weeks of travel per year.
