Job Summary

Ariya is building AI-powered products for pharmaceutical and life sciences organizations. We are looking for an exceptional Senior Product Designer who can transform complex enterprise and AI workflows into intuitive, elegant, and highly usable product experiences.

This is not a traditional visual design role. The successful candidate will combine product thinking, user research, information architecture, interaction design, prototyping, and strong visual craft. The role will work closely with product, engineering, AI, and business teams and will own design from discovery through implementation.

Key Responsibilities

1. Product Strategy and User Experience

• Drive end-to-end product design from discovery and problem definition through implementation and iteration.

• Partner with product managers, engineers, AI specialists, and business stakeholders to define product vision, priorities, and user journeys.

• Translate complex enterprise, pharma, and AI workflows into simple and intuitive experiences.

• Plan and conduct user interviews, discovery workshops, usability testing, and feedback sessions.

• Create user flows, journey maps, wireframes, interaction models, prototypes, and information architectures.

• Use qualitative feedback and product data to improve usability and adoption.

2. UI and Visual Design

• Design polished, accessible, responsive interfaces for web-based enterprise products.

• Create high-fidelity designs, interactive prototypes, and clear specifications for engineering teams.

• Build, maintain, and govern a reusable design system across Ariya products.

• Define reusable components and interaction patterns that improve speed and consistency.

• Apply strong typography, layout, visual hierarchy, and accessibility principles.

3. AI Experience Design

• Design human-centered experiences for AI assistants, enterprise search, knowledge discovery, analytics, content generation, and workflow automation.

• Define interaction patterns for prompts, recommendations, citations, confidence, feedback, explainability, and user control.

• Design for uncertainty, errors, empty states, long-running actions, and responsible human review.

• Simplify sophisticated AI capabilities so that business users can understand and use them confidently.

• Explore new interaction patterns for agentic and multimodal product experiences.

4. Cross-functional Delivery

• Work closely with frontend engineers throughout implementation and quality review.

• Conduct design reviews and ensure the delivered experience reflects approved designs and intended behavior.

• Present design rationale clearly to leadership, customers, and internal stakeholders.

• Balance user needs, business goals, technical constraints, and delivery timelines.

• Contribute to product planning, customer demonstrations, and design-led discovery workshops.

Required Skills and Qualifications

• 4-6 years of experience in Product Design, UX Design, or UI/UX roles, preferably for SaaS or enterprise products.

• A strong portfolio demonstrating end-to-end product design ownership, complex workflow design, and shipped outcomes.

• Advanced proficiency in Figma, including components, variants, auto layout, prototyping, and developer handoff.

• Strong knowledge of user-centered design, interaction design, information architecture, usability, and visual design.

• Experience creating and scaling component-based design systems.

• Ability to structure ambiguous problems and convert business requirements into clear product experiences.

• Experience collaborating closely with product managers and engineers in agile delivery teams.

• Excellent communication, facilitation, storytelling, and stakeholder-management skills.

• Working knowledge of responsive design and accessibility standards.

Preferred / Good to Have

• Experience designing AI-powered products, copilots, conversational interfaces, enterprise search, or workflow automation.

• Familiarity with Generative AI, RAG, agentic workflows, knowledge management, and AI evaluation concepts.

• Experience designing enterprise tools involving large content libraries, structured and unstructured information, dashboards, or complex permissions.

• Experience in pharma, healthcare, life sciences, or another regulated industry.

• Experience in a startup or high-growth product environment.

• Understanding of product analytics, experimentation, and design success metrics.
