Have experience leading and developing high-performing product or growth designers, including coaching senior designers through ambiguous, consequential work
Have a track record of using design to drive measurable business outcomes. You understand experimentation and growth mechanics, but you don’t sacrifice customer experience in pursuit of a metric
Be an excellent design thinker with strong visual and product judgment. You can evaluate the details of an experience while also seeing the larger system it belongs to
Be comfortable moving between leadership modes. Sometimes the team needs a strategic thought partner, sometimes a sharp critique, sometimes organizational clarity, and sometimes someone willing to get close to the work
Care deeply about developing people. You can set a high bar, give direct and thoughtful feedback, recognize what makes individual designers exceptional, and help them grow
Be curious about why people behave the way they do. The best growth ideas often begin with understanding a customer rather than staring at a funnel
Be comfortable operating independently in a fast-moving environment where the answer often isn’t obvious at the beginning
You don’t need to have spent your entire career with “Growth” in your title. Excellent candidates could come from product design, growth design, consumer products, commerce, or other environments where design quality and business performance are deeply connected
What matters is that you can build a team capable of doing both: make Mercury easier to discover, understand, and adopt while making the experience itself better along the way
