Synthesia is the world’s leading AI video platform for business, used by over 90% of the Fortune 100. Founded in 2017, the company is headquartered in London, with offices and teams across Europe and the US.
As AI continues to shape the way we live and work, Synthesia develops products to enhance visual communication and enterprise skill development, helping people work better and stay at the center of successful organizations.
Following our recent Series E funding round, where we raised $200 million, our valuation stands at $4 billion. Our total funding exceeds $530 million from premier investors including Accel, NVentures (Nvidia's VC arm), Kleiner Perkins, GV, and Evantic Capital, alongside the founders and operators of Stripe, Datadog, Miro, and Webflow.
tl;dr: We're looking for an outcome-oriented design leader to join us as a Manager of Product Design. You'll lead our high-quality design team and shape a generative AI product with strong PMF. You’ll set us on a path to become a reference for what world-class enterprise product design looks like.
Lead the Design direction of our product and ensure a cohesive and outstanding visual language and user experience.
Coaching and providing feedback on your team’s performance, helping them to develop clear career development goals and action plans on how to achieve them.
Partnering directly with our Director of Product Design and VP of Product, to evolve the Product Design team: our people, our structure, our processes, our beliefs
Anticipate and plan for the Design investments that will be necessary to take the product to new heights.
Ensure product design is a strategic differentiator and that Synthesia is known for a simple, cohesive, and memorable user experience.
Lead a team who are rethinking the paradigm of video creation around the latest advancements in generative AI.
Identify opportunities to bring in more of the brand into our Product Design.
Experience designing digital products and systems. This isn’t solely a people management role - you’ll also be involved with and guide the product work. All of our managers care deeply about and actively engage in our product development process, details, and outcomes.
Experience managing Product Designers and genuinely caring about how the people who report to you perform, feel, and grow. The ability to develop a genuine relationship with people and help them grow, learn, and succeed.
A working knowledge of the full stack of Product Design, from systems thinking to visual design. You don’t need to be a specialist in all of these things, but you should be able to have informed, intelligent conversations.
Ability to envision and lead change. There are many things that we still need to evolve and improve about how we work, and the design manager role will be a key part in driving that change. We’re looking for someone who aligns with our values, but also who makes us better.
A growth mindset. Willingness to own problems. Comfort with ambiguity. Passion for building product. A desire to make things better.
