Lead, Center of Excellence

The Team + The Role The Product Design team at Pendo works closely with senior product leaders and sits at the center of product strategy and delivery. The team operates close to both the problem and the build, using LLM-assisted exploration, code-level prototyping, and customer validation before work moves into Figma for systems and polish. Designers ship across a multi-app platform with a high bar for craft, reliability, and product impact. As a Staff Product Designer, you will lead design across the platform and move toward the highest-impact work. You will own projects end-to-end, from problem framing through shipping, partnering with product and engineering to make sophisticated experiences feel simple. AI-assisted workflows are part of how this team works every day, and this role is expected to use, improve, and share those workflows. This role is based in our Raleigh office. What this looks like day-to-day Platform design leadership: Lead design across multiple product areas and own projects from problem framing through shipping. Partner with product and engineering to reduce complexity without losing capability, starting from customer need rather than feature requests. Prototyping and validation: Build interactive prototypes using code-adjacent tools and validate them with real users before engineering investment. Use findings to sharpen flows, surface edge cases, and improve the work before full systemization. AI-integrated workflow: Use AI tools actively across the design process, including LLMs for problem framing and brief development, Cursor and Claude for prototyping, and generative tools for faster interface exploration. Document and share prompts, patterns, and workflows with design and engineering partners. Design systems: Translate and evolve Pendo's design principles into reusable components and patterns. Identify when to extend existing systems and when to push them forward, then drive those decisions with stakeholders. Cross-functional alignment
