Why This Job is Featured on The SaaS Jobs
This Senior Product Designer role sits at a mature, high-throughput SaaS platform where design decisions are exercised at real scale: a white-label ordering product used across many restaurant brands and locations. In the SaaS ecosystem, that combination—multi-tenant needs, brand flexibility, and consumer-grade reliability—tends to surface the hardest product design trade-offs around consistency, configurability, and trust.
From a SaaS career perspective, the role signals strong exposure to the full product loop: concepting, prototyping, testing, and iteration informed by analytics and research. Work on an established design system and accessibility standards also translates well across SaaS companies that operate platform products, where repeatable patterns and compliance become core to shipping. The remit includes influencing product strategy, which is often where senior designers build leverage beyond interface craft.
This role is best suited to designers who enjoy navigating complex requirements without losing sight of usability, and who prefer close partnership with product and engineering. It will fit someone comfortable owning outcomes across a journey rather than a single screen, and interested in mentoring and critique as part of day-to-day practice.
