We are looking for a dynamic design leader to spearhead a modern design transformation across multiple enterprise software products within Veeam. You will drive the design and user experience strategy, evolve a design system, and foster a customer-centric culture to modernize our product suite and improve usability. We need a strategic leader who can also be hands-on when necessary, executing rapid, iterative UX improvements in a fast-paced environment. 

Your tasks will include: 

• Lead Design Strategy: Define and drive the overall design vision and UX strategy across all products, aligning design objectives with business goals and customer needs. 
• User-Centric Transformation: Champion a culture of design thinking, user research, and prototyping to ensure product decisions are guided by user insights. 
• Cross-Functional Collaboration: Partner closely with Product Management, Engineering, and other teams to incorporate design early in product development and create a shared vision. 
• Team Leadership: Recruit, mentor, and manage a high-impact design and research team. Foster a collaborative, inclusive culture that empowers designers to innovate and grow. 
• Design System Implementation: Drive the evolution of a modern, scalable design system for consistency, efficiency, and a cohesive user experience across the entire product portfolio. 
• UX Quality & Innovation: Measure and evolve the user experience to ensure product usability and delight, identifying opportunities to streamline complex workflows and enhance visual design. 
• Bias for Action: Inspire a rapid iteration mindset within the design team, producing prototypes and gathering feedback quickly to drive continuous improvement and impact on the broader company. 
• Hands-On Execution: Step in as a “player-coach” when needed, contributing directly to key design initiatives while mentoring team members. 

What we expect from you: 

• 10+ years of experience in UX/Product Design, including 5+ years in a leadership role (Director level or above).
• Proven success leading the design of enterprise B2B software or SaaS products.
• Experience building and implementing a unified design system.

Will be an advantage

• Familiarity with cybersecurity, data protection, or related enterprise IT domains.
• Experience in turnaround or high-growth environments, with an ability to champion organizational change.
