Junior Product Designer

We are looking for a proactive and curious Junior Product Designer to join our Platform Tribe (specifically the Front End & Design team). While you’ll be embedded in the platform area, your impact will be felt across the entire Mesh product, working on various complex features.

What You Will Be Doing

• End-to-End Design: Develop user solutions by creating low-fidelity wireframes, functional workflows, and high-fidelity UI designs in Figma.
• Collaborative Design: Work closely with the Product Design team and Product Managers across multiple feature teams, supporting requirements, functionality, product strategy and roadmap definition.
• Engineering teamwork: Collaborate with FE engineers to handover design, understand technical constraints and create viable solutions.
• Executive Support: 75% of your time will be spent on core product design—solving user problems and building UI—while 25% will be spent working directly with our CPTO, Mark Watson, helping to create and refine high-impact external materials and presentations.
• Design System Contribution: Maintain and contribute to our evolving design system, ensuring consistency across all platform components.
• From Reactive to Proactive: Help the team transition from a fast-paced "reactive" delivery style to a more planned, research-driven design process.
• User centric: Develop a deep understanding of the target audience and ensure that designs meet their needs.

About You

We don’t expect you to have decades of experience, but we are looking for a specific blend of skills and attitude:

• The "All-Rounder": You have a solid balance of UX and UI skills.
• Communication is Key: You are comfortable speaking with everyone from engineers to C-level executives. You aren't afraid to ask "why" or seek clarification.
• Adaptable & Resilient: You thrive in dynamic environments where roadmaps might change based on fresh stakeholder feedback, and you can manage multiple tasks without losing focus.
• Tech Savvy: You are proficient in Figma and Jira. If you have an interest in or awareness of how AI assistants can speed up your workflow, that’s a huge plus.
• Growth Mindset: You are eager to learn, open to design critiques, keen to collaborate with other designers, and motivated to move toward self-sufficiency.
• Curious: You are keen to expand your knowledge and understanding of AI and how it is being applied in real-world situations to improve efficiency and quality. 

Must-Haves

• Previous work experience in a relevant design role (internships or junior roles).
• A portfolio that demonstrates your ability to define workflows and build UI.
• A proactive attitude—we value ownership over waiting for instructions.
