Lead Product Design

Join H1, a fast-moving company in the healthcare and life sciences sector, as a Lead Product Designer. In this individual contributor role, you will own the design solutions for high-impact initiatives, working independently while keeping the Design Director informed. You will lead design projects from problem definition through research, concept, prototyping, delivery, and post-launch iteration. You will also partner closely with product managers, engineers, and domain experts to scope and ship, and maintain and evolve the design system. This role offers flexible work hours, stock options, unlimited PTO, and opportunities for growth into people leadership.

• Lead design projects from problem definition through research, concept, prototyping, delivery, and post-launch iteration.
• Take complex, data-heavy workflows and make them clear, fast, and intuitive, identifying where AI can meaningfully improve a user’s workflow.
• Present work, rationale, and tradeoffs to senior leadership and turn feedback into clear next steps, while partnering closely with product managers, engineers, and domain experts.

• You are adaptable, collaborative, and open to feedback. You can work effectively with strong personalities and diverse perspectives while maintaining a focus on delivering meaningful outcomes for customers
• You are naturally curious about how products work beneath the surface and enjoy understanding the systems, workflows, and data models that power great user experiences. You ask thoughtful questions, challenge assumptions, and seek to become an expert in the products you support
• You thrive in ambiguity and are comfortable operating without perfectly defined requirements. You proactively identify opportunities, help clarify direction, and work cross-functionally to move initiatives forward
• You understand that successful enterprise product design is not just about creating polished interfaces—it's about solving complex problems, simplifying difficult workflows, and helping users make better decisions
• Proven track record of simplifying complex user flows with heavy data elements
• Leadership presence: you’ve informally mentored or guided other designers, and you’re ready to grow into formal people management over time
• Ability to work autonomously: you can scope an ambiguous problem, make decisions, and keep work moving without day-to-day direction
• Experience working with engineers in an agile environment
• Proficiency with Figma, Claude, Jira, Excel and more
• Comfort in a fast-paced, high-ownership environment: you balance speed and quality well, and stay steady and constructive when timelines are tight or priorities change
• Excellent written and verbal communication, including confident presentation to executives and non-design stakeholders
• 7+ years of product design experience, with a portfolio showing projects you led from start to finish
• Experience designing AI-powered features or workflows
• Experience in healthcare, life sciences, medical technology, or another data-intensive, high-stakes domain
• Experience at a startup or scale-up, or in another fast-moving environment
• Prior experience managing or leading designers
