About this role

As a key member of Udemy's Enterprise design leadership team, you will lead product design across our Enterprise business — spanning both the Coursera and Udemy platforms. Reporting to the Head of Enterprise Design, you'll set design vision and direction for how organizations equip their people with in-demand skills, building and coaching a team of product designers along the way.

This is a people-leadership role first: you'll spend most of your time growing designers, shaping team culture, and connecting design work to business outcomes. But you're also expected to be a credible practitioner — able to jump into Figma yourself, prototype with AI tools, and set a concrete design bar when a project needs it, especially for early-stage vision work.

What You'll Do

• Lead and coach a team of product designers across our Enterprise business, covering the full arc from acquisition and onboarding through admin tooling, learning programs, analytics, billing/retention, and partner-driven growth.

• Build strong working relationships with cross-functional partners in product and engineering, acting as a strategic partner who helps shape roadmap and priorities — not just executes against them.

• Use business context and user insight to spot opportunities for design-led innovation and connect work across multiple teams.

• Coach and develop your team: create opportunities for designers to lead initiatives, give direct and honest feedback, and manage performance with clarity and care.

• Shape team culture: build a collaborative, motivated team with a clear sense of purpose tied to our mission.

• Plan for the team's growth: recruit, organize, and deploy talent to match business needs, and identify future leaders within the team.

• Elevate craft quality by bringing in strong examples from peer teams and the industry, and by giving direct, actionable critique.

• Stay hands-on where it counts: personally prototype and visualize concepts — using modern design and AI tools — especially in early vision-setting work, so the team has a concrete bar to build toward.

• Translate design initiatives into quantifiable business value, and contribute to your team's success metrics.

• Balance business value, quality, and effort across multiple workstreams, keeping a bias toward action while tracking key metrics.

What You'll Bring

• 8+ years of experience in product design, with 3+ years leading and managing design teams.

• Experience designing enterprise or B2B products at scale — admin/back-office tooling, business dashboards, or platforms serving large organizations.

• A track record of using AI tools as part of your own design and prototyping process, and of helping your team do the same.

• Strong craft fundamentals: you can still open Figma and produce high-quality, detailed design work yourself when a project calls for it.

• Demonstrated ability to translate ambiguous, cross-functional problems into a clear design vision and roadmap.

• Experience partnering with research to build a deep understanding of enterprise customer needs.

• A portfolio that shows both your own design craft and your impact as a design leader — team outcomes, business results, and org-building.

About Your Skills

• Leadership — You lead with humility and clarity, building an environment where designers feel supported, heard, and proud of their work, while modeling strong craft yourself when it matters.

• Collaboration — You partner effectively with cross-functional peers, proactively communicating progress, trade-offs, and risk, and represent your team with integrity.

• Growth Mindset — You value continuous improvement for yourself, your team, and your processes, and create space for feedback, experimentation, and celebrating progress.

• Execution — You translate high-level objectives into a clear roadmap, prioritize effectively, manage complexity, and remove blockers so your team can execute with confidence.

• Business Acumen — You connect design investment to business and user value, and use data to demonstrate design's impact on the metrics that matter to your team's area.

Location

Dublin, Ireland. Udemy offers flexible work arrangements — this is a hybrid role. You'll lead designers based in Dublin and India, and collaborate closely with colleagues based in North America.
