The UX Manager will lead a team of UX designers, collaborate with cross-functional teams, and focus on creating innovative user experiences through design and AI strategies.
Who we are:
At Mediafly, we help the world’s top revenue teams work smarter and achieve measurable impact. Our platform brings together sales enablement, content, and performance insights so sellers have the coaching, tools, and intelligence they need to succeed. By weaving value selling into every workflow, we empower teams to accelerate deal cycles, boost win rates, and prove ROI.
For you, that means joining a company where innovation meets purpose—where your work helps businesses deliver more meaningful buyer experiences and drives results that truly matter. You’ll be part of a collaborative, growth-focused team that values expertise, creativity, and human connection.
As a UX Manager, you’ll lead a small but mighty team of UX designers shaping the future of how users discover, personalize, and distribute content within Mediafly. You’ll act as both mentor and player-coach, helping your team grow while staying hands-on in design and discovery work.
You’ll collaborate cross-functionally with Product, Engineering, AI, and GTM teams to ship intelligent, agentic experiences, where automation and AI help users move faster, focus better, and make data-driven decisions.
Responsibilities of a UX Manager:
- Lead, mentor, and inspire a team of UX designers—providing feedback, growing their craft, and supporting career development.
- Partner with Product and Engineering to define vision, goals, and UX strategy for features that blend human insight and AI-driven automation.
- Design and ship agentic experiences across the Mediafly platform, such as content discovery, personalized collateral, adaptive presentations, and automated distribution workflows.
- Validate ROI by partnering with customers to identify where content automation can reduce cycle time and increase win rates—building clear, measurable business cases.
- Collaborate with AI and data teams to incorporate insights, personalization, and intelligent recommendations into the user experience.
- Foster a design culture of experimentation, continuous improvement, and outcome-driven decision making.
- Contribute to Mediafly’s design system, accessibility standards, and AI-forward design best practices.
We would love to work with you if you have:
- 7+ years of UX design experience, with 2–3 years in a management or lead role.
- Proven experience leading small, high-impact design teams.
- Strong visual, interaction, and information design skills with a strategic mindset.
- Excellent cross-functional leadership and able to influence and align with Product, Engineering, and GTM stakeholders.
- Analytical and data-driven, with strong instincts for customer outcomes and commercial impact.
- Curious about (and comfortable with) AI, both as a design tool and as a core part of the user experience.
- Skilled communicator who can balance empathy for users with the needs of the business.
- Experience in SaaS, content management, or revenue enablement platforms is a plus.
