This is a people-first leadership role for someone equally comfortable setting strategic direction and coaching their team through complex, real-world design problems while building partnerships with cross-functional stakeholders.

What You'll DoTeam Leadership & Development

Data-Driven Design Practice
  • Champion and operationalize Pendo as Limble's primary platform for user analytics, in-app guides, and behavioral insights

  • Build internal practices and rituals around Pendo data—establishing how the team uses usage analytics, funnel data, and NPS signals to drive design decisions

  • Spearhead the team's adoption of AI-powered tools across the design workflow to reduce time from initial insight to validated solution.

  • Partner with Product and CS to align on metrics that matter: adoption, activation, task success, and time-to-value

  • Drive a culture of hypothesis-driven design with regular usability testing, A/B testing, and quantitative validation

Content, Onboarding & Instructional Design
  • Oversee Limble's technical writing and in-app content function, ensuring documentation and guides meet a high bar for clarity and usability

  • Define and enforce best practices for in-app onboarding, tooltips, walkthroughs, and contextual help—leveraging Pendo's guide capabilities

  • Partner with Customer Success and Support to identify friction points and translate them into scalable self-serve content solutions

  • Bring a strong point of view on instructional design principles and how they apply to a B2B SaaS product experience

Design Systems & Craft
  • Evolve and maintain Limble's design system to support scale, consistency, and speed across the product

  • Set and uphold a high bar for interaction design, accessibility, and visual quality

  • Ensure UX research is integrated into the design process—not an afterthought

Requirements
  • 7+ years of UX leadership experience managing multi-disciplinary teams

  • Proven track record scaling a UX function in a B2B SaaS environment

  • Hands-on experience with Pendo with demonstrable ability to translate behavioral data into design decisions

  • Demonstrated experience using AI tools to accelerate the design process and support design system governance and maintenance

  • Familiarity with instructional design principles and in-app onboarding/guide best practices

  • Strong cross-functional collaboration skills across Product, Engineering, Marketing, CS, and Support

  • Experience building, maturing, and maintaining a design system from the ground up

  • Excellent communication and storytelling—you can align stakeholders and make the case for UX investment

Benefits
  • Salary Range: $190,000 - $230,000

  • Fully remote position

  • Flexible PTO

  • 13 paid company holidays

  • Paid parental leave

  • Health, Dental, and Vision insurance

  • Employer paid Basic Life insurance and Short-Term Disability insurance

  • Company contribution match for HSA and 401(k)
