Job description

Vista (a Cimpress Company) is the go‑to partner for millions of small and medium sized businesses who need to promote themselves effectively in the modern age. With tools that empower brands to create their unique identity and expert design support when they need inspiration, we provide a range of digital and print services at every stage of their journey.

To help customers bring their visions to life, we’re looking for UX professionals skilled at crafting the right features and experiences – that’s where you come in. As a remote‑first company, we empower you to thrive from wherever you are while staying connected to a global team.

What you’ll do

Vista is looking for a Principal UX Designer located in India to join our Vista Corporate Solutions (VCS) product experience group. This covers a suite of enterprise and consumer‑facing solutions that simplify how teams create, manage, and order custom print and digital promotional items.

More specifically, you’ll focus on the end‑to‑end experience for both admins and customers: enabling admins to manage budgets and permissions, and helping customers purchase, track orders, and access real‑time support. You’ll approach the experience holistically, collaborating across teams to ensure the service is seamless, scalable, and best‑in‑class.

This role also requires strong UX leadership across product teams and initiatives, influencing priorities within the VCS domain and aligning with cross‑functional partners and senior leaders on scalable, system‑oriented experiences that support strategic goals. You’ll actively mentor junior designers, model high‑quality design practices, and help grow the team by providing feedback, supporting onboarding, sharing resources, and contributing to hiring efforts.

Responsibilities

• Conceptualize and explore visionary new product design solutions that evolve and differentiate the Vista experience for our customers.
• Shape ambiguous ideas into concrete user stories and innovative product experiences, utilizing a user‑centered design process; be hands‑on at every stage of the design process, as well as direct more junior designers who are working alongside you.
• Collaborate with data scientists to experiment and evolve our design composition and design generation algorithms, exploring new possibilities for asset, layout, and complex template generation.
• Collaborate closely with our in‑house design systems and marketing design teams to ensure generated designs meet the highest quality standards for admins and customers.
• Collaborate with peers throughout the product ecosystem to drive cross‑functional alignment, push creativity and innovation, and challenge established thinking.
• Contribute thought leadership and design execution towards a long‑term Vista experience strategy and vision.
• Plan and execute on user research learning agendas with data, consumer insights; utilize research findings and insights as inspiration for and validation for new product concepts.
• Foster a strong, user‑centered design practice with the mission of evangelizing UX + design, building a thriving design culture, and sharing your design expertise.
• Attract, inspire and develop talent across the larger Vista UX + design community.

Your Qualifications

• 10+ years experience designing innovative digital products, within large‑scale product and service ecosystems.
• 5+ years of experience working collaboratively with product, engineering, design, content and user research teams.
• 5+ years directing and mentoring more junior designers, and guiding multi‑disciplinary collaborators through a successful user‑centered process.
• Multiple case studies demonstrating user‑centered, creative, highly conceptual, and innovative design solutions that had measurable positive impact for users and the business.
• Ability to drive and contribute to product Discovery and Delivery on an iterative and ongoing basis, and coach other team members through the process.
• Experience leveraging quantitative and/or qualitative data to inspire design concepts, prioritize features, validate new product designs and communicate decisions to stakeholders.
• Ability to build strong cross functional relationships with design, creative, technical and business partners; experience managing executive stakeholders.
• Presentation skills and the ability to articulate sophisticated concepts to cross functional audiences in person, remotely, real time, and/or asynchronously.
• Strong graphic design and communication design fundamentals including visual and typographic craft.
• Ability to plan, moderate, and execute a variety of goal‑oriented workshops across stakeholders, leading to exciting new ideas, new‑found consensus, and critical alignment.
• Skilled in remote‑first collaboration, including Figma, Slack, Jira, and Miro (or equivalents).
• In order to work in our global team environment, you must be willing to work 11:00 to 19:00 IST.

Nice to have

• Relevant degree in field of Design or HCI.
• Experience working with globally distributed teams, and/or in highly matrixed organizations.
• Clear examples demonstrating the use of Generative AI in your discovery and/or delivery process that improved the way you work or the design itself.
• Experience identifying and prioritizing features, as well as participating in complex roadmap planning.
• Experience using code to create fully or partially functional prototypes, to be used in user research and/or internal socializing of design concepts.
