Lead Product Designer (UX/UI)

Location: Timisoara, Romania

Reports to: Director of Product


About WeVideo

WeVideo is a global video-creation and interactive-learning platform used by millions of educators, creators, and businesses. We’re rebuilding our flagship Creation Suite, merging professional video editing with PlayPosit-style interactivity. As our first Timisoara-based design leader, you’ll shape this experience end-to-end and lay the foundation for a small local design team.


The Role

You’ll start as a hands-on individual contributor owning complex UX in a multi-track editor, then help us grow and mentor a small team. You’ll work closely with PMs and engineers, translating goals and research into production-ready designs, evolving our Figma system, and ensuring high-quality delivery in an Agile setup.


What You’ll Do
  • Own product UX for the Creation Suite: map multi-step editing flows; rapidly prototype timeline and panel interactions (keyboard, drag, touch); deliver dev-ready Figma specs with interaction notes and edge-cases.
  • Drive design–engineering collaboration: join daily stand-ups with Romania squads; be available to iterate quickly during development; run design reviews; partner with QA to verify Definition of Done and conduct UX reviews.
  • Evolve & govern the Figma design system: audit and refactor components; add missing patterns (multi-track timeline, media browser, context panes); maintain structure, tokens, variants, and release notes.
  • Champion accessibility & usability: embed WCAG 2.1 AA checkpoints (contrast, focus order, keyboard shortcuts) in every spec; help QA stand up an accessibility regression suite.
  • Embed in our product process: ensure stories meet Definition of Ready (DoR); collaborate with PMs to bring research insights into designs; monitor post-release impact and iterate.


What You Bring
  • 6+ years in product/UX design for complex SaaS or creation tools, including 2+ years driving design direction or mentoring.
  • Portfolio showing workflow thinking (not just screens), iteration under constraints, and shipped outcomes.
  • Deep Figma mastery (auto-layout, component variants/properties, design tokens, interactive prototypes).
  • Strong cross-functional collaboration with engineers and PMs; comfort in Agile environments.
  • Fluent English (spoken/written) for daily collaboration and occasional customer interviews.
  • Bonus: experience with video/animation tools, Lottie/After Effects hand-off, or product analytics (e.g., Mixpanel).


How We Work
  • Agile triad: PM + Design + Engineering
  • Async-first: specs, video walkthroughs, and Figma comments reduce time-zone friction; overlap hours are for decisions.
  • Continuous discovery: PMs lead research; designers join sessions or review recordings to turn insights into UI decisions.


What We Offer
  • Top-quartile Timisoara compensation (gross) with growth path into people leadership.
  • The 13th salary
  • Lunch tickets of 30 RON / day
  • Medical insurance with MedLife
  • Gym membership (or any other sports)
  • Bookster
  • Free snacks and enough free caffeine to keep you up for 2 weeks straight
  • Employee development resources
  • Referral Bonuses
  • Real ownership: your work ships to a global audience and is showcased at events like ISTE, EDUCAUSE, and NAB.
