Airwallex is the only unified payments and financial platform for global businesses. Powered by our unique combination of proprietary infrastructure and software, we empower over 150,000 businesses worldwide – including Brex, Rippling, Navan, Qantas, SHEIN and many more – with fully integrated solutions to manage everything from business accounts, payments, spend management and treasury, to embedded finance at a global scale.

Proudly founded in Melbourne, we have a team of over 1,700 of the brightest and most innovative people in tech across 26 offices around the globe. Valued at US$6.2 billion and backed by world-leading investors including Visa, Airtree, Blackbird, Sequoia, DST Global, Greenoaks, Salesforce Ventures, Lone Pine, and Square Peg, Airwallex is leading the charge in building the global payments and financial platform of the future. If you’re ready to do the most ambitious work of your career, join us.

As the Lead for our Growth, Corpsite and Brand System team, you’ll work closely with product managers, engineers, and marketing teams to craft intuitive experiences that drive user engagement and business growth across both our web app and corporate website. You and your team will be responsible for guiding users to discover our newest features and products, balancing first-rate UX with effective growth strategies. You will also proactively identify areas to incorporate AI into existing strategies and whole new ways of working.

Your work will span the entire user journey — from first touch on the marketing site through onboarding, activation, and expansion within the product. You will uncover user needs through research and data, then design and validate solutions (often via A/B experiments) to optimise our acquisition and activation funnels.

• Design and optimise key customer experiences: Amplify the work of our many product squads by creating and optimising key customer pathways through our product, from the moment of engagement (on our corporate website, emails, landing page) through to the moment of conversion (product activation) and all moments in between (re-engagement emails, help & support). Working with a key performance indicator in mind, you’ll work end-to-end by translating requirements into user flow, wireframes and then into polished, high-fidelity UI designs.

• Partner cross-functionally: Collaborate closely with product managers, engineers, and growth/marketing leads to define problems and goals, map user flows, prototype new interactions, and launch features that drive acquisition and product adoption.

• Champion data-driven design: Analyse quantitative product and marketing funnel data to identify friction points in acquisition, activation, and conversion, then iterate on designs (e.g. A/B tests) to improve key growth metrics like website conversion, signup rates, product usage, and upsell.

• Prototype and execute: Translate wireframes into clickable prototypes and finished designs using Figma, ensuring consistency with Airwallex’s design system and brand. Iterate rapidly on designs based on feedback and performance data.

• Own end-to-end growth initiatives: Lead the design process for growth-oriented projects spanning both marketing and product surfaces — from ideation through launch. Set high standards for design quality and user experience, and ensure solutions meet both user needs and business objectives.

• Experience: Minimum of10 years in product design (web applications and websites) with a strong track record of delivering impactful digital products as an IC (staff-level experience or equivalent) as well as experience leading high performing design teams. We'd love to see a portfolio that demonstrates exceptional UX thinking and problem-solving.
  

• Growth experience: Proven ability to use design to improve growth metrics (activation, retention, conversion, upsell, etc.). You are comfortable running design experiments and iterating based on user data.
  

• Cross-functional collaboration: Excellent communication skills and a history of working closely with product, engineering, and marketing teams. You thrive in ambiguous, fast-paced environments and can guide projects from 0→1 or redesign major flows.
  

• User-first approach: Deep empathy for customers and a user-centered design mentality. You excel at translating research and insights into intuitive, user-focused product features

Who are we?

UpGuard’s mission is to protect the world’s data. We obsessively seek out elegant, robust ways to enable our customers to find, acknowledge, and remediate cyber risk. With UpGuard, organizations leverage our security expertise and software to automate what was once laborious, spreadsheet-driven processes–whether it's monitoring the attack surface of hundreds of vendors or assessing the security of their own infrastructure. UpGuard is used by some of the world’s largest, fastest-growing, and most innovative companies.

Our Product team at UpGuard comprises of our Product Management, Product Support, Engineering, Design, Data Leaks Detection, and Third Party Risk Management Services. Our Product team’s vision is to become the leader in the Cyber VRM category by providing a best-in-class SaaS platform for organizations to manage their third-party risk and external attack surface. Our purpose as a Product team is simply to build a product that enables this. We aim to build a product that users love and come to rely on, and one that regularly and consistently improves.

Where does this role fit in?

We're entering a new phase of growth, expanding our product suite and user base and product design is a key strategic differentiator in this evolution. As VP of Product Design, you'll sit at the heart of this transformation, reporting to the Chief Product Officer and leading a growing team of designers and a UX writer. You'll scale our design system, drive the adoption of AI tools to improve efficiency, and help shape a unified, world class experience across every touchpoint in close partnership with Product, Engineering, and Brand.

Reporting to the Chief Product Officer, you'll lead a team of five Product Designers (with plans to grow) and a UX Writer. You'll be responsible for scaling our design system into a robust foundation that enables consistency and speed, while championing AI-assisted design tooling to reduce repetitive work and maximise time spent on solving user problems. You'll also partner closely with the VP of Product, VP of Engineering, and Brand & Marketing Design to ensure a unified, world class experience across all touchpoints.

• Craft and socialise a compelling design vision that aligns with UpGuard’s product strategy and brand.
• Establish a design‑system roadmap that scales across multiple products and future use cases.
• Define success metrics e.g. adoption of the design system, usability/NPS increases, reduction in design‑to‑dev cycle time and report progress to executives.

• Lead and accelerate the evolution of our token‑driven Figma design system, formalising governance, documentation, and contributor workflows.
• Formalise design‑ops processes (versioning, governance, documentation) so patterns remain consistent as the suite grows.
• Ensure collaboration with Brand & Marketing Design to keep visual language unified.

• Hire, mentor, and grow a high‑performing team of ProductDesigners.
• Provide coaching, clear career paths, and effective feedback loops so designers produce their best work.
• Foster a culture of rapid prototyping, user testing, and measurable learning.

• Identify and deploy generative‑AI tools (e.g. for ideation, content, asset generation) that streamline designer workflows.
• Partner with Engineering and Product teams to experiment with AI‑driven UX patterns inside the product itself.

• Collaborate daily with Product, Engineering, Customer Success, and Support to ship features that delight users.
• Translate complex cybersecurity concepts into simple, intuitive experiences.
• Balance strategic initiatives with hands‑on design reviews and execution oversight.

• Proven leadership: Multiple years leading product‑design teams (Director/Head/VP level), ideally in a high‑growth B2B software environment, but we value exceptional accomplishments regardless of sector.
• Track record of impact: Clear examples where your leadership elevated product usability, visual quality, or speed of delivery.
• Design‑system expertise: Experience building or scaling a component library and token system in Figma (or similar).
• AI mindset: Familiarity with generative‑AI tools and a passion for integrating them into design workflows.
• Collaboration skills: Excellent communication and influence across Product, Engineering, and Brand teams.
• User‑centred craft: Ability to pair data‑driven insights with strong product‑thinking and interaction‑design chops.
• Domain exposure: Experience in B2B SaaS is highly valued; cybersecurity familiarity is a bonus but not mandatory.
• Location: Must be based on Australia’s east coast (AEST/AEDT time zone) and able to work remotely or from our optional offices.

• Demonstrated success introducing AI‑assisted processes that measurably improved design velocity or quality.
• Experience scaling design orgs from single‑product to multi‑product platforms.
• Contributions to open‑source or public design systems.
• Familiarity with accessibility best practices and inclusive‑design methodologies.

• Monthly Lifestyle subsidy: use this for financial, physical and mental wellbeing (all regions)
• WFH set-up allowance: to ensure you have the right environment to work in, we will help you get set up within your first 3 months at UpGuard (all regions)
• $1500 USD annual Learning & Development allowance: to support your career development all team members will be able to expense development opportunities against this allowance (all regions)
• Generous Annual Leave/PTO allowances: time to recharge your batteries (all regions)
• 18 weeks paid Parental Leave: irrespective of parenting role (all regions)
• Personal Leave allowance: this includes sick & carer’s leave (all regions)
• Fully remote working environment: whilst we have physical offices in Sydney & Hobart, we do not mandate compulsory attendance (all regions)
• Top-spec hardware: all team members will be provided with top-spec laptops for their role (all regions)

Our purpose as a Product team is simply to build a product that enables this. We aim to build a product that users love and come to rely on, and one that regularly and consistently improves.

Where does this role fit in?

We're entering a new phase of growth, expanding our product suite and user base and product design is a key strategic differentiator in this evolution. As VP of Product Design, you'll sit at the heart of this transformation, reporting to the Chief Product Officer and leading a growing team of designers and a UX writer. You'll scale our design system, drive the adoption of AI tools to improve efficiency, and help shape a unified, world class experience across every touchpoint in close partnership with Product, Engineering, and Brand.

Reporting to the Chief Product Officer, you'll lead a team of five Product Designers (with plans to grow) and a UX Writer. You'll be responsible for scaling our design system into a robust foundation that enables consistency and speed, while championing AI-assisted design tooling to reduce repetitive work and maximise time spent on solving user problems. You'll also partner closely with the VP of Product, VP of Engineering, and Brand & Marketing Design to ensure a unified, world class experience across all touchpoints.

• Craft and socialise a compelling design vision that aligns with UpGuard’s product strategy and brand.
• Establish a design‑system roadmap that scales across multiple products and future use cases.
• Define success metrics e.g. adoption of the design system, usability/NPS increases, reduction in design‑to‑dev cycle time and report progress to executives.

• Lead and accelerate the evolution of our token‑driven Figma design system, formalising governance, documentation, and contributor workflows.
• Formalise design‑ops processes (versioning, governance, documentation) so patterns remain consistent as the suite grows.
• Ensure collaboration with Brand & Marketing Design to keep visual language unified.

• Hire, mentor, and grow a high‑performing team of Product Designers.
• Provide coaching, clear career paths, and effective feedback loops so designers produce their best work.
• Foster a culture of rapid prototyping, user testing, and measurable learning.

• Identify and deploy generative‑AI tools (e.g. for ideation, content, asset generation) that streamline designer workflows.
• Partner with Engineering and Product teams to experiment with AI‑driven UX patterns inside the product itself.

• Collaborate daily with Product, Engineering, Customer Success, and Support to ship features that delight users.
• Translate complex cybersecurity concepts into simple, intuitive experiences.
• Balance strategic initiatives with hands‑on design reviews and execution oversight.

• Proven leadership: Multiple years leading product‑design teams (Director/Head/VP level), ideally in a high‑growth B2B software environment, but we value exceptional accomplishments regardless of sector.
• Track record of impact: Clear examples where your leadership elevated product usability, visual quality, or speed of delivery.
• Design‑system expertise: Experience building or scaling a component library and token system in Figma (or similar).
• AI mindset: Familiarity with generative‑AI tools and a passion for integrating them into design workflows.
• Collaboration skills: Excellent communication and influence across Product, Engineering, and Brand teams.
• User‑centred craft: Ability to pair data‑driven insights with strong product‑thinking and interaction‑design chops.
• Domain exposure: Experience in B2B SaaS is highly valued; cybersecurity familiarity is a bonus but not mandatory.
• Location: Must be based on Australia’s east coast (AEST/AEDT time zone) and able to work remotely or from our optional offices.

• Demonstrated success introducing AI‑assisted processes that measurably improved design velocity or quality.
• Experience scaling design orgs from single‑product to multi‑product platforms.
• Contributions to open‑source or public design systems.
• Familiarity with accessibility best practices and inclusive‑design methodologies.

• Monthly Lifestyle subsidy: use this for financial, physical and mental wellbeing (all regions)
• WFH set-up allowance: to ensure you have the right environment to work in, we will help you get set up within your first 3 months at UpGuard (all regions)
• $1500 USD annual Learning & Development allowance: to support your career development all team members will be able to expense development opportunities against this allowance (all regions)
• Generous Annual Leave/PTO allowances: time to recharge your batteries (all regions)
• 18 weeks paid Parental Leave: irrespective of parenting role (all regions)
• Personal Leave allowance: this includes sick & carer’s leave (all regions)
• Fully remote working environment: whilst we have physical offices in Sydney & Hobart, we do not mandate compulsory attendance (all regions)
• Top-spec hardware: all team members will be provided with top-spec laptops for their role (all regions)
