About the Team

The Product Design team at Navi creates clear, intuitive experiences that put users first. We work end-to-end—across research, interaction, and visual design—to shape products that are simple, fast, and purposeful. Our approach is deeply data-driven, combining user insights and product analytics to continuously refine and improve the user experience.

About the Role

Navi is seeking a Senior Design Manager to lead and scale our growing design team. This is a critical leadership role for someone who is not just an expert in design, but an expert in building a team that is "ruthless" in its approach to problem-solving.

You will be instrumental in fostering a culture of relentless pursuit of excellence and pushing for an incredibly high bar for what we ship. You will be responsible for the overall success and strategy of the design function, from defining the "why" to ensuring a high-quality outcome. The ideal candidate has a strong backbone to take a stand for what is right for the customer and the company , but also has a humble heart to listen and learn.

  • Strategic Leadership:

○ Partner with senior leadership (Product, Engineering, Business) to define the design vision and strategy for all charters, aligning with company goals and product principles.

○ Champion a customer-first mindset, ensuring the team starts with the customer's pain and obsesses over making their lives better.

○ Drive a culture of ruthless prioritization, ensuring the team is focused on doing fewer things, but better.

○ Seek clarity relentlessly to unblock your team and ensure everyone is moving fast with purpose and sense.

  • Team Leadership & Management:

○ Recruit, mentor, and lead a high-performing team of product designers, fostering their growth and helping them do their best work.

○ Conduct performance reviews, set career goals, and create a clear path for professional development for the team.

○ Instill the core Navi principles of end-to-end ownership and accountability.

  • Design & Process Excellence:

○ Maintain and elevate an incredibly high bar for design quality, simplicity, and taste across all products.

○ Oversee the design process, ensuring it is data-informed and focused on clear outcomes.

○ Establish and evangelize best practices, design patterns, and standards across the organization.
