Job Description

About the Team
 
Grailed is one of the largest peer-to-peer marketplaces for resale fashion. Our platform has connected millions of style enthusiasts and casual fans. Our goal is to make Grailed the number one marketplace while continuing to empower our user base: allowing them to take control of fashion commerce.
 
Role Overview
 
As the Director of Product Design, you will help lead the product development efforts for the Grailed marketplace by guiding our product design team and working cross functionally with other team leaders. You are a seasoned product design leader with a track record of leading design teams through successful launches across mobile and web, preferably in a startup environment. A two-sided marketplace has unique challenges where traditional routes can hit roadblocks, so we are looking for a design leader excited to pursue alternative solutions, test new opportunities, and guide user experience.
 
In this role, you will:
  • Be accountable for the quality of the Grailed user experience, advocating for design across our internal teams
  • Work through the design team to create rational, articulable, elegant solutions to complex problems and user journeys
  • Drive design strategy and push to support potential opportunities that are backed by research and data, strategically driving a path forward beyond MVP
  • Collaborate with designers and cross-functional teams to ensure the best, most relevant practices are employed and are evolving through the growth of the company
  • Manage our team of designers embedded on squads, guiding both performance and growth, while assisting in the recruitment process to onboard new talent
  • Coach teams on how to validate their designs with the right user science tool for the job
  • Define a Grailed design system that can easily be grasped by all team members
We are looking for: 
  • 8+ years of digital/product design experience, 3+ years of building and managing high performance teams
  • Proven track record of leadership, taking ownership and driving results in a fast-paced, iterative, startup environment 
  • Ability to balance growth levers that drive business impact with experiences that adhere to longer-term brand and experience strategies
  • Well versed in, and opinionated about visual and user experience design
  • Comfortable leading teams of designers and non-designers through design-led activities and processes
  • You're an expert in web and mobile app design, best practices and stay current with iOS updates, trends, and design patterns
  • Ability to develop and articulate strategy and perform tactically
  • Excellent oral and written communication, negotiation, and project management skills
  • Experienced with different design and development methodologies and able to apply selective aspects of them when needed
The hiring range for this position is below, plus benefits (401K, paid time off, dental, medical, vision, disability, life insurance options). To determine starting pay within the hiring range, we carefully consider a variety of factors, including primary work location, role/level, a candidate’s skills, experience, market demands, and internal parity. You may reach out to a recruiter for additional information.
Hiring Range
$183,600—$229,500 USD
