Trilon is building a supercharged, technology-enabled future for our people and partners. The Senior Product Designer plays a critical role in that mission by owning the end-to-end user experience of Trilon’s Digital Platform.
This is a unique, high-impact role as the sole designer across the platform. You are responsible for defining the design system, interaction patterns, and overall user experience that span four product pods and a shared platform layer. You ensure that every tool feels consistent, intuitive, and immediately usable by engineers, project managers, and field staff across the organization.
You operate at both the system level and the feature level. You establish the design language and component library that pods build against, and you partner with Product Managers and engineers to design workflows that reflect how work actually happens. Consistency is a core platform principle, and you are accountable for making that real across every product surface.
You work closely with the Lead Engineers to ensure designs are implemented accurately, with Product Managers to understand workflows and requirements, and with the Principal Solutions Architect to align user experience with system architecture. You also engage directly with operating company users to ground your decisions in real-world workflows and continuously improve the platform experience.
This role requires strong product design fundamentals, systems thinking, and the ability to operate independently in a fast-moving environment. You are pragmatic about constraints, clear in your design decisions, and focused on building tools that make skilled professionals more effective.
