We're looking for a Senior Product Designer to lead design for Stord's brand-facing and consumer-facing subscription portals, physical inserts product (Unbox), and international checkout, and other experiences that turn one-time buyers into loyal customers. You'll own design quality across this domain, shape the roadmap through design with stakeholders, and help raise the craft of a growing design team.
You'll create experiences for consumers at their most critical moments: tracking an order, managing a subscription, or resolving a delivery issue. This isn't about building forms. It's about designing experiences that reduce anxiety, build trust, and create loyalty during moments that can make or break a brand relationship.What makes this role special:

• Consumer delight at scale: Your designs touch millions of end consumers across hundreds of leading brands

• Domain ownership: You own design across consumer commerce and set direction proactively, rather than waiting for a brief

• Strategic influence: Your research and design point of view shape roadmap conversations with product and engineering leaders

• Direct business impact: Drive conversion rates, return completion rates, and customer satisfaction scores

• Vision storytelling: Get engineering teams excited about the why behind your designs and help them see the consumer's emotional journey

• AI-powered velocity: Leverage AI design tools to rapidly prototype and iterate on consumer experiences

• Team leverage: Help shape the practices of a growing 5-person design team

The opportunity: Own the design vision for consumer-facing commerce experiences while helping establish design excellence across Stord's platform. If you're energized by consumer psychology, comfortable with ambiguity, and love helping engineers understand the emotional stakes of post-purchase experiences, this role will challenge and fulfill you.

Drive Rapid Design Iteration:

• Leverage AI design tools for quick prototyping and design exploration to accelerate velocity

• Create high-fidelity prototypes that validate concepts before engineering investment

• Iterate based on usability testing, A/B test results, and consumer feedback

• Balance design perfection with shipping velocity and deliver great experiences quickly

Collaborate Across Functions:

• Partner with product managers to shape roadmaps based on consumer insights, and work closely with engineers to ensure designs are technically feasible while pushing for exceptional UX

• Shape and steward significant portions of the design system, keeping consumer touchpoints consistent and scalable
