Senior Product Designer

About the project We're hiring Senior Product Designers for two product projects. Depending on your experience and preferences, you'll join either Bench or one of Europe's largest and most established e-commerce platforms - a product used by tens of millions of people every month, with a history spanning more than two decades. Th e Bench opportunity is a long-term engagement, with opportunities for involvement in internal initiatives (e.g. supporting sales prospects), as well as engagement in the needs of our clients, who are expanding their design teams this and next quarter. The e-commerce platform project is a 4-month engagement running until the end of the year . At this stage, there is no confirmed extension beyond that period , although an extension may be possible depending on the client's business needs. In both projects, as a Senior Product Designer , you'll own a significant, often ambiguous area of the product end-to-end - collaborating closely with developers, product managers, and business stakeholders across a large corporate structure. You won't be handed a well-defined brief; you'll be expected to walk into unclear territory, figure out what the real problem is, ask the right questions, and drive the topic to a decision. You'll propose solutions, facilitate discussions, and advocate for users - while understanding that final decisions rest with the business. Comfort with ambiguity, strong ownership, and the judgment to know when to explore versus when to converge are what will make you successful here. For one of the projects (e-commerce), most of the teams you'll work with are based in Poznań and Warsaw - so if that's where you are, you'll have a natural advantage when it comes to showing up in person and being part of the team's day-to-day. We offer remote working with occasional visits to the office, as well as business trips.
