Job description

Summary:

We are seeking a Senior Product Designer to join our growing Product Design team for International. This role is available to candidates in the UK, Dublin and Spain. If you are located near one of our hubs (Barcelona, London, Manchester or Dublin), you will be expected to work in the office a minimum of twice per week on our designated Anchor Days.

Design plays a pivotal role at Clio, standing alongside Product and Engineering as one of the three pillars of our Research and Development organization. Our product designers work directly with customers to understand their behaviors, needs, and workflows. They champion thoughtful, high-quality experiences as we transform how lawyers and their teams serve their clients. If you’re focused on shipping value to customers with an opportunity to revolutionize an industry, you’ve found your next team.

About The Role

The International team brings Clio to legal professionals around the world, spanning EMEA, APAC, and Canada. This role represents an exciting new chapter, Clio's first foray into non-English speaking markets. We're doing the foundational work of understanding new legal cultures from the inside: their languages, regulatory environments, and day-to-day realities of localities’ legal practice. We intend to architect a blueprint for how Clio successfully grows beyond the English-speaking world.

As a Senior Product Designer, you'll lead the international design practice — starting with France — building the scalable patterns, frameworks, and standards that make each new market faster and more coherent than the last. You'll deeply understand legal professionals' workflows to shape experiences that feel built for them, not translated for them. You’ll lead the end-to-end design process, from strategic discovery and opportunity framing through development, launch, and ongoing iteration.

You’ll launch to learn with high-impact features, raising quality and coherence across our product ecosystem, and demonstrating strong judgment in designing intelligent AI automation that is trustworthy, explainable, and appropriately controlled. Our market opportunity is rare in its scale — powered by a strong business model, first-rate investors and advisors, and a world-class design team — with significant opportunities for designers to do some of the most impactful work of their careers.

What You’ll Do

• Partner with Product and Engineering to define and execute on experience design strategy and success metrics, using research and insights to prioritize what matters most to customers and the business.


• Build strong customer intuition through direct engagement, and advocate for customer needs in trade-offs, sequencing, and cross-functional decision-making.


• Lead end-to-end design for a product area - from vision crafting, to prototyping, testing, and polished execution.


• Raise the quality bar through polished, accessible, and cohesive experiences — and push beyond “good enough” toward best-in-class interaction design.


• Strengthen systems and patterns across the product by contributing design system improvements, identifying gaps, and influencing consistency beyond your immediate scope.


• Drive alignment through crisp storytelling, clear decision framing, and proactive collaboration across cross-functional teams.


• Strengthen the team through constructive critique, mentoring through example, and consistent bar-raising execution.

What You Bring

• 6+ years of experience designing digital products, B2B SaaS experience is required.


• Demonstrated ability to design scalable experiences across multiple customer segments and/or products (e.g., Solo, SMB, and Mid-Market).


• Proven track record of shipping high-quality work that solves customer problems and moves key product metrics.


• Strong craft across interaction design, information architecture, usability, and visual design, with consistently high-quality execution.


• Strong customer-centric practice, with the ability to translate customer insight into actionable design direction.


• Experience designing AI-powered features or workflows, with a strong understanding of user-centered applications of machine learning and generative AI.


• Highly capable in design and prototyping tools and solid use of AI tools in your process (e.g., Figma Make, Claude, Gemini, etc.)


• Strong communication and presentation skills, including clear articulation of rationale and trade-offs.


• A collaborative, low-ego partner — you facilitate alignment, clarify trade-offs, and drive confident execution.

Bonus if you have…

• Fluency in Spanish, French, or another European language (written and spoken) — you'll conduct research, build customer relationships, and develop firsthand intuition for local legal contexts as a core part of your role.


• Experience scaling a localization design practice across multiple markets, with a track record of moving from a single-locale pilot to a repeatable, multi-region playbook — ideally including Western European markets.


• Experience being the sole regional design voice on a cross-functional team — comfortable operating with autonomy, influencing without authority, and bridging a remote market to a centralized product org.


• Hands‑on experience with localizing workflows, participating in string review processes, and contributing to locale QA to ensure shipped experiences feel native, not translated.


• Familiarity with i18n design considerations: text expansion, date/time/currency formatting, pluralization rules, and how regional legal and regulatory conventions shape UX decisions across markets.
