Job Summary
We are seeking an experienced Lead Product Designer to join our R&D team at Real. This is a hybrid product design and visual role — you bring strong product thinking AND exceptional visual craft. You own end-to-end design process: from research and ideation through high-fidelity production and delivery. You work fluidly across product UI, marketing visuals, motion graphics, and bridge into design engineering when Figma isn’t enough. You thrive in ambiguous environments, move from a fuzzy brief to a clear design direction with minimal supervision and actively integrate AI into your daily workflow. You have a clear understanding of technology, a foundational knowledge of front-end environments, seek to understand all the data points, love Claude, and are comfortable vibe-coding your design system when it comes down to it. You will help mentor junior designers and shape the design culture at Real while working remotely.
