  • Leadership & Strategy - Define and drive the long-term vision for design at ThoughtSpot; serve as a strategic thought partner to Product, Engineering, and Executive Leadership. Lead, scale, and mentor a diverse team of 30+ designers distributed across North America, and India.

  • Cross-Functional Collaboration - Partner deeply with Product Management and Engineering to create intuitive, intelligent, and elegant user experiences. Lead a high-functioning, globally distributed design team—implementing processes and communication strategies that bridge time zones and cultures.

  • Design Excellence -  Champion & promote user-centered design across the organization and take ThoughtSpot’s design leadership to the next level.

  • Customer Obsession: Infuse deep customer empathy and feedback into every phase of the design and product development lifecycle.

  • DesignOps & Tools: Ensure the right tooling, AI innovation, workflows, and practices are in place to enable velocity without compromising quality.
     

What You Bring:

  • 15+ years of experience in design, with at least 7+ in leadership roles.

  • Proven success leading large, distributed design teams across time zones and cultures.

  • Experience designing enterprise-grade SaaS products; BI or analytics product experience strongly preferred.

  • Strong systems-thinking approach with a portfolio that showcases elegant UX at scale.

  • Passion for working in high-growth, fast-paced environments with cross-functional complexity.

  • Deep understanding of AI/ML-powered interfaces, search-driven UX, and data visualization is a strong plus.

  • Excellent communication, stakeholder management, and executive presence.
