force multiplier

with the rest of the product team to embed ownership and responsibility in delivering designs that look and feel like they come from the same system, and have Hatch written all over them. You'll have a well-rounded set of core design skills, from understanding user needs to wireframes to prototypes usable enough for testing and research. You will strive to develop the skills and ability to distill needs and desired outcomes into delightful user experiences.

This role plays a critical role as we look to scale and grow our business, platform and design knowledge.

Like most roles at Hatch, this is highly collaborative, with the success of Hatch being the primary driver for all decisions.

Key Responsibilities/ Areas of Impact

Scope

To be a successful principal designer for Hatch, you will have deep context of the product, competition, and design and rationalise our foundational systems. You will champion and enable cross functional teams to use our design system and help them adopt good design principles and advocate for our customers at all times.

You will contribute to identifying new business and customer problems and opportunities and drive user-centered design solutions to them through our digital channels and touchpoints.

These include the core Hatch app, our website, emails and other internal applications used by our staff to support our day-to-day operations.

You will also have a strong influence and part to play in improving our design processes and tools, and support the design director in making decisions to continuously improve the efficiency and health of the design team.

Design Leadership

An internal champion for the power of design to fuel the growth of Hatch. Get to know Hatch inside and out and Identify potential areas of improvement.

As a design leader you’ll help other designers teams to deliver work that embeds ownership and pride, inspiring them to take ownership of our work together. You will help to ensure that our design team is healthy and delivering great work alongside the rest of the delivery team.

Create user scenarios, mockups and flows. Produce rapid prototypes to validate design concepts with the wider team.

Craft beautiful interfaces and care about the details at every step of the journey from concept to validation to shipped code.

Research, Analysis, and Testing

Stay up to date on evaluating market trends, customer needs, and competitive landscape.
