Partner with Product and Engineering to deliver intuitive, scalable digital experiences for designers and brands

Oversee the development of cohesive design systems that span digital UI and physical form

Guide the industrial design team to deliver high-impact, manufacturable products using our on-demand production methods

Elevate the Gantri brand across all touchpoints—website, packaging, showroom, and beyond

Be a key member of the leadership team, helping shape company strategy and culture

Qualifications

20+ years of design experience, with at least 5 in a leadership role managing both digital and industrial design

Deep expertise in digital product design (UX / UI) and industrial design, with a strong point of view on brand and aesthetics

Experience leading design at a consumer company where hardware and software meet (e.g. Apple, Nest, Sonos, Peloton, Airbnb, IDEO)

Strong systems thinking—able to scale design systems across form and function

Demonstrated ability to build, lead, and grow high-performing design teams

Excellent cross-functional collaborator with product, engineering, and manufacturing

Hands-on when needed, but strategic by default

Passionate about empowering designers and elevating creativity
