My experience leading senior product designers while remaining hands-on with complex UX, visual craft, and design systems aligns closely with Amplitude’s player-coach model. I would bring a customer-centered approach to shaping AI-native workflows, establishing clear quality standards, and helping autonomous product pods move quickly without sacrificing coherence. I am particularly motivated by the opportunity to develop a high-performing team and create product experiences that serve both technical and non-technical users. I would welcome the opportunity to discuss how my design leadership, product judgment, and commitment to measurable customer outcomes could support Amplitude’s next phase of growth. Copy Sample interview questionsTell us about a time you built or significantly strengthened a product design team in a high-growth organization.I would describe the product context, team size, and the leadership challenge, then explain the operating model I introduced. I would quantify outcomes such as retention, promotions, hiring quality, delivery speed, design-quality improvements, and product or business metrics. What AI-native experience have you shipped, and what did you learn from it? I would start with the customer problem, the role of AI in the workflow, and the safeguards needed to preserve trust and user control. I would explain how I validated the experience through research, prototypes, usage data, and iterative releases, including what I learned after launch. How would you maintain design coherence across autonomous product pods without becoming an approval bottleneck? I would establish a small number of explicit quality principles, shared patterns, and lightweight review mechanisms embedded in the teams’ normal work. I would focus on coaching and clear decision ownership rather than central approvals, using customer feedback and product outcomes to calibrate the bar. Describe how you handle a significant disagreement with product or engineering leadership about a product direction. I would frame the disagreement around customer evidence, business goals, and the decision to be made rather than personal preference. I would make the tradeoffs explicit, seek a reversible experiment where appropriate, and ensure the final decision has a clear owner and follow-through plan. How do you measure whether design work has improved customer and business outcomes? I would use a combination of customer task success, adoption, engagement, conversion or retention metrics, qualitative feedback, accessibility and usability findings, and consistency with the product system. For AI experiences, I would also assess trust, comprehensibility, error recovery, and whether users retain meaningful control. Amplitude is moving fast, from product analytics to an AI-native platform with agents embedded across the product, used by over 4,700 companies. We are looking for a strong design leader with a builder mindset to lead a 15-person design team through the next phase of growth. This is a player-coach role. You manage and grow the team. You also stay in the actual work: elevating quality through feedback, pairing with designers on the hardest UX puzzles, and asking the right questions to unlock the crux of the problem. You’ll know every product surface well enough to raise its quality — even if you don’t own any single one end-to-end. Designers are embedded in autonomous pods and need to keep shipping fast. Maintaining speed without compromising on coherence and quality is the job. If that tension sounds like an exciting problem to solve rather than a contradiction to complain about, keep reading. ### What you’ll do Build the team. Hire, grow, and retain a high-performing design team, identifying people who will thrive and raise the bar at Amplitude. Develop them through direct, specific feedback. Help someone who’s stuck get moving again. Set direction. Drive the design strategy for Amplitude’s product suite: Core Amplitude, Statsig, and Wave (a proactive agent that helps teams build self-improving products). Help define how agents and humans work together in the same workflows. Champion craft. Strong visual design builds trust, clarity, and delight in the era of AI. Lead by example, elevating the quality of the product through exceptional design execution. Hold a high bar. AI makes it cheap to ship UI changes, which makes it easy for quality to erode quietly. Set a clear standard for what good looks like and enforce it without becoming an approval bottleneck. Stay in production. You believe that “the design” is what ships. Code is the material that brings the design to life. Push on the details, the papercuts, the edge cases. Speak for the customer. Show up in leadership conversations as the voice of the customer, pushing for solutions that genuinely serve their needs and reduce complexity. ### What we’re looking for * You’ve managed senior, independent IC designers and earned their respect through product and craft judgment. * You’ve shipped products that moved real customer and business metrics, fast. * You’ve created (not inherited) structure inside of a messy, high-growth organization. * You’ve shipped AI-native experiences and use AI tools in your own practice today (we’ll ask what you built and what you learned). * Your portfolio shows both systems-level thinking and pixel-level craft. * Bonus: You’ve designed for both technical and non-technical users, and can hold that tension without compromising the experience for either. * Bonus: Experience with Analytics, Experimentation, or Developer tools. ### What this is not * Not an executive role that manages up and delegates down. You’re deep in the work. * Not a pure IC role. You’re accountable for a team of 15. * Not design ops. Your job isn’t to add rituals, templates, or governance. * Not the approval committee. Pods keep moving; you create coherence without becoming the bottleneck. ### Our values: At Amplitude, our values guide how we show up for one another and for our customers: * Humility: We operate from a place of empathy and openness, seeking to understand many points of view. * Ownership: We take the initiative to solve problems that drive our shared company success. * Growth Mindset: We’re tenacious in the face of challenges and seek feedback in order to grow ourselves and others. * Customer Centricity: We put the customer at the center of everything we do and are deeply committed to their success.
