About the role
We’re looking for a Senior Product Designer to lead end-to-end design across telemonitoring and at-home diagnostics. You’ll work closely with Product, Engineering, and Clinical teams to translate complex needs into intuitive, accessible, and high-trust experiences. You’ll mentor a junior designer and help evolve our design system and design culture.
You will
* Lead discovery: conduct user research with patients and healthcare professionals; synthesize insights into opportunities.
* Design end-to-end: translate insights into journeys, flows, wireframes, high-fidelity UIs, and prototypes.
* Ship with impact: partner with PM and Engineering from scope to launch; define success metrics; iterate based on data and feedback.
* Elevate craft and quality: drive accessibility, information architecture, and interaction patterns that reduce cognitive load.
* Facilitate alignment: run workshops to frame problems, explore solutions, and make informed trade-offs.
* Mentor: support a junior designer’s growth and help shape design best practices and rituals.
* Contribute to systems: evolve our design system for consistency, scalability, and speed.
What success looks like
* Reduced clinical workload via clearer workflows and fewer steps.
* Higher adherence and engagement for patients using remote monitoring.
* Measurable improvements in task completion, error rates, and support tickets.
* Faster delivery cycles without quality trade-offs.
* A stronger, more cohesive design culture and system.
Qualifications
* 5+ years in Product Design with shipped, impactful work on complex products (healthcare/medtech is a plus).
* Demonstrated end-to-end ownership: research, strategy, interaction design, prototyping, usability testing, delivery.
* Strong systems thinking: can simplify complex workflows into elegant, accessible solutions.
* Experience facilitating workshops and aligning cross-functional teams.
* Portfolio that shows clear problem framing, process, rationale, and outcomes (metrics or clear proxy measures).
* Fluent in Italian (B2/C1+) and professional English; excellent communication with clinical stakeholders.
* Based in Italy; ability to join occasional sessions in Milan.
Nice to Haves
* Experience in regulated or high-trust domains (healthcare, fintech, gov).
* Familiarity with accessibility standards (WCAG), service design, and motion for clarity.
* Analytics and experiment mindset (e.g., Amplitude, product metrics, A/B tests).
* Experience with design systems at scale (Figma libraries, tokens).
* Basic understanding of clinical standards/workflows is a plus.
