Job description

Lead / Senior Product Designer

Noida · Reports to SVP Product

7–10 years (Lead)

4–7 years (Senior)

VZY is at the moment every product dreams of: the foundations are in place, the audience is here, and the question now is what the product should feel like. We're looking for a designer who wants to answer that question: give VZY a clear point of view, turn it into a design language, and carry it across every screen we ship.

The philosophy we want you to shape

We have a starting belief, and we'd love you to challenge and sharpen it. An aggregator's job is to reduce choice anxiety, not add to it, so the product should feel calm, confident and edited rather than loud and endless. Content is the hero; the interface should step back and let posters, trailers and people's taste do the talking. Premium should come from restraint, motion and pace, not from gold gradients. And it should feel unmistakably Indian without falling back on festival clichés.

The design language you'll build

• Look and feel: a visual identity for VZY as a product, not just a brand guideline: colour, type, imagery treatment, iconography, depth and dark-mode-first surfaces
• Motion and sound: how things move, transition and respond, especially on TV where every focus change is felt
• Voice: how the product speaks, in English, Hindi and regional languages, and how that changes between a hero banner and an error state
• One system, four screens: phone, web, Smart TV at ten feet, and the phone acting as a remote. Consistent in spirit, native to each
• Formats with character: curator-led shelves, personalised home pages and editorial moments that feel authored rather than algorithmically stacked
• A living design system in Figma and in code, with tokens and components engineering actually uses

How we want you to think

• Start from the viewer, not the screen. Spend time with real users across metros and smaller towns, on budget phones and patchy networks, and bring back what you see
• Frame the problem before drawing the solution, and be able to say why a design is right, not just that it looks right
• Prototype early and test often; kill ideas cheaply
• Treat data as an input to taste, not a replacement for it. Rail CTR and browse-to-play matter; so does whether the product feels good at 11pm
• Sit with product and editorial from the first problem statement, not at handoff

What you'll own day to day

• End-to-end flows for discovery, search, subscription and the TV experience, including remote-first navigation and live channel switching
• Design reviews and the quality bar for everything that ships
• At Lead level: hiring and growing two to four designers, and building the team's critique culture.

You’ll likely have

• A portfolio that shows a point of view, not just polish, with shipped consumer products; streaming, music, gaming or TV interfaces are a strong plus
• Built or evolved a design language or system from scratch, and can walk us through the decisions behind it
• Strong visual, interaction and motion craft
• Designed for Indian users across languages, network conditions and device tiers
• It’ll suit you if you can explain what a product believes in one sentence, and you notice the half-second lag on a TV remote before anyone else does.
