Product Design Lead

Hello! You've landed on this page, which means you're interested in working with us. Let's take a sneak peek at what it's like to work at Innovaccer.

Product at Innovaccer

Our product team is a dynamic group of skilled individuals who transform ideas into real-life solutions. They mastermind new product creation, development, and launch, ensuring alignment with the overall business strategy. Additionally, we are leveraging AI across all our solutions, revolutionizing healthcare and shaping the future to make a meaningful impact on the world.

About the Role

As a Lead Product Designer at Innovaccer, you will play a pivotal role in shaping the strategic direction of our product offerings and driving design excellence across the organization. You’ll collaborate closely with product managers, engineers, designers, and technical writers to deliver high-quality user experiences while contributing to Innovaccer’s rapid growth in the healthcare sector. You’ll lead the vision for your product(s) in partnership with product and engineering counterparts, ensuring that all Innovaccer products work together seamlessly.

Beyond design execution, you will operationalize and improve design processes, proactively managing team workflows and optimizing tools to ensure efficiency and quality. You’ll also be responsible for mentoring and fostering team growth, whether directly managing designers or strategically leading your colleagues through complex design challenges. You'll drive a culture of creativity and strategic thinking, ensuring the team aligns with business goals while maintaining a user-centric approach.

The ideal candidate has proven experience contributing as a coach and leader within a team. You will provide strong design direction and encourage the creative use of design principles to deliver top-tier results consistently. Your efforts will focus on both improving processes and driving product quality, all while maintaining a deep commitment to users’ needs.

While there are no strict rules around team size at Innovaccer, Product Design Leads typically oversee 0-3 individual contributors and maintain a strong focus on delivering high-quality product feature work, often closely related to the work of their reports. Design Managers, on the other hand, are responsible for managing larger teams, including Leads, or overseeing teams that handle multiple differentiated products. As a fast-moving startup, Design Managers not only lead their teams but also ensure that our high design standards are met. In critical situations, Design Managers may step in to own projects and features in an individual contributor capacity to ensure project success.
