About this position:
We're looking for a Senior Director, User Experience to lead design across Later 's product portfolio, spanning Later Influence, Later Social, and Mavely. You'll build and lead a team of 5 to 6 UX designers, partnering closely with roughly 10 product managers and an engineering organization of 100+ developers to ship experiences that are cohesive, intuitive, and scalable across our lines of business. Reporting to the Chief Product Officer, you'll be the systems thinker who connects design decisions across teams into one coherent product experience, setting the design standards, patterns, and processes that let Later move fast without fragmenting the product. This is a high-visibility role with regular exposure to senior leadership and direct influence over how brands and creators experience Later 's platform. This is a remote position managing a remote team. Travel is required 1-2 times per quarter.

Forward Deployed Execution with Strategy & Systems Thinking
- Embed directly as a hands-on, principal contributor on Later 's most critical zero-to-one product bets, operating at the intersection of design, product strategy, and engineering execution.
- Drive rapid, high-fidelity experimentation by turning abstract business requirements into functional prototypes, bypassing traditional wireframing phases to validate ideas immediately in the browser.
- Act as the ultimate safeguard for user experience on flagship launches, jumping in with the team to unblock strategic initiatives through direct co-creation.
- Translate business strategy and customer insight into a design roadmap that supports growth, stickiness, and commercial outcomes.
- Identify and resolve structural gaps in the product experience that individual teams, working in isolation, would not catch.
