Home to an award-winning technology solution with data-driven AI / ML technologies, we deliver and optimize hundreds of terabytes of data and billions of events per day.

The Role

We are seeking a Lead UX / UI Designer to define and develop our design practice. You will report to the SVP, Product Platforms, within the Product team. This is a senior role for someone who thrives in a "startup within a scale-up" environment: agile enough to move quickly, yet visionary enough to set long-term standards. You will:

• Lead the creation of our design system and visual language to unify multiple platforms into a single ecosystem.
• Be a founding member of the design team, defining best practices, processes, and tools from the ground up.
• Promote design thinking across the company, evangelizing user-centered practices with product, engineering, sales, and leadership teams.
• Balance artistic craft with strategic UX research, ensuring both visual excellence and user impact.
• Design and deliver intuitive interfaces for both B2C and B2B platforms, from self-serve advertiser tools to publisher-facing solutions.
• Collaborate with product managers and engineers to deliver a consistent, performant, and scalable experience across products.
• Conduct user research, usability testing, and competitive benchmarking to inform decisions.
• Push boundaries by experimenting with AI-powered design workflows and other emerging tools.

Responsibilities / Profil recherché

Vous êtes à la fois designer, stratège et bâtisseur. Vous savez passer d'une journée de conception de maquettes à l'animation d'un atelier de vision avec des dirigeants le lendemain. Vous avez l'œil d'un artiste, l'esprit d'un chercheur et le pragmatisme de quelqu'un qui sait concrétiser des idées.

Qualifications :

• 5+ années d'expérience en design UX / UI, dont au moins 2 ans dans un rôle senior ou de lead.
• Expérience confirmée dans la création ou la contribution à un design system à grande échelle.
• Portfolio solide démontrant des projets réalisés sur des plateformes B2B et B2C.
• Capacité à équilibrer travail opérationnel et leadership stratégique.
• Excellente maîtrise de Figma (ou outils de design similaires), du prototypage et des logiciels collaboratifs.
• Solides compétences en recherche UX : tests utilisateurs, entretiens clients, cartographie des parcours.
• Excellentes compétences en design visuel, avec un sens artistique et une grande attention aux détails.
• Excellentes aptitudes en communication et storytelling — capable de défendre le design auprès d'interlocuteurs techniques et non techniques.
• Connaissances techniques en développement front-end (HTML, CSS, JavaScript, React ou équivalent) appréciées.
• Expérience dans l'utilisation d'outils d'IA générative pour accélérer le design et l'idéation serait un atout.
• Esprit entrepreneurial : à l'aise avec la construction de zéro, proactif et polyvalent.

Pourquoi nous rejoindre / Why Join Us

Chez Perion, vous serez plus qu'un designer — vous serez le ou la fondatrice d'une nouvelle discipline qui façonne la manière dont annonceurs et éditeurs vivent notre écosystème. C'est l'opportunité de concevoir non seulement des interfaces, mais aussi l'ADN de produits utilisés par des marques et éditeurs de premier plan. Vous aurez l'autonomie de construire la culture design dont vous avez toujours rêvé, tout en étant soutenu par un leader mondial de l’ad tech.
