Responsibilities
We are seeking a Senior Director of UX Design, Research & Content Strategy to own experience strategy across our full product portfolio: app, web, hardware interfaces, and the end-to-end customer lifecycle.
You will sit on CPO’s leadership team for product planning and investment decisions, and you are expected to drive UX, research, and content as a unified business function.
You will inherit a team of 12 (designers, researchers, and content strategists) and a function with real capability and momentum.
SimpliSafe’s UX, research, and content capabilities have grown substantially; this role is the next chapter: moving the function from craft-focused to outcome-accountable, from reactive to proactive, and from team-level to enterprise-level influence.
About the Company
We’re a high-tech home security company that’s passionate about protecting the life you’ve built and our mission of keeping Every Home Secure. And we’ve created a culture here that cares just as deeply about the career you’re building. Ours is a no ego culture of collaboration and innovation where those seeking their next challenge can find big opportunities and make a huge impact on the lives of all those who we protect. We don’t just want you to work here. We want you to grow and thrive here.
We’re embracing a hybrid work model that enables our teams to split their time between office and home. Hybrid for us means we expect our teams to come together in our state-of-the-art office on two core days, typically Tuesday, Wednesday, or Thursday – working together in person and choosing where they work for the remainder of the week. We all benefit from flexibility and get to use the best of both worlds to get our work done.
