Design System Product Designer

Description

We are monday.com , a global software company transforming how businesses run. Our product suite can adapt to the needs of diverse industries and use cases within one powerful platform, empowering ~245,000 customers worldwide to reimagine how work gets done, drive greater efficiency, and scale like never before.

With over 2,500 employees across the globe, we grow by prioritizing transparency and knowledge sharing. We care about the impact you make, not the hours you clock, so we encourage initiative, ownership, and fresh thinking. We back our people with flexible work, wellness and mental health support, and a work environment built on collaboration.

At monday.com, we’re not just building a product; we’re defining the future of work. Our Design System, currently known as Vibe, is the platfrom and base of every user experience and the way the products in monday are being created. As the landscape is transformed by AI and conversational interfaces, we have a mission to rethink traditional design system methodologies.

We are looking for an exceptional, forward-thinking Senior Product Designer to join our Design System team. This role isn't about creating another component; it’s about reimagining the entire design system workflow and architecture to support a new generation of AI-powered products and interfaces. If you’re ready to challenge classic approaches and innovate at the foundational level, this is your mission.

About The Role

This role is a strategic blend of ownership, partnership, and visionary thinking. You will be instrumental in making monday.com's interface simple, consistent, and intuitively aligned with our accelerating product needs. You will join the core Design System team and be an essential contributor to our mission. You will not just use the system- you will shape the way the entire Product Design Guild builds and collaborates.

• Rethink the System for AI: Contribute to and drive initiatives to adapt and evolve our Design System to accommodate the next wave of AI products, new interaction models, and dynamic content. This mandate includes challenging classic component structures and exploring solutions for system-level support for generative design.
• Design Governance: You will be a key steward of the Core Design Foundation, contributing to the Figma Design System files and upholding world-class execution, consistency, and structure across the platform.
• Innovate the Workflow: Design and co-own the foundational patterns, documentation, and advanced internal products and tools that empower our entire guild (designers and developers) to leverage the system at scale. This is not about production design- it’s about product design for our builders.
• Process & Governance: Actively participate in defining, managing, and driving the Design System change process, ensuring seamless adoption and governance across the R&D organization.
• Alignment & Advocacy: Your stakeholders are the entire Product Design Guild. You will proactively identify areas for improvement and partner closely with product designers to ensure the system elevates their work, driving product-wide visual and functional alignment
