Role Overview

We-re seeking an innovative AI-First UI/UX Design Manager to join our dynamic team at the forefront of internal innovation. You-ll report directly to the CEO and hold ultimate ownership of our e-commerce web design, revolutionizing our design process and customer experience through the integration of artificial intelligence while transforming the design team-s creative process through AI-driven workflows.

The Career Accelerator

You-ll compress 3 years of AI-first design leadership mastery into 1. You-ll ship high-fidelity web experiences and conversion experiments in your first year. You-ll transform how an entire design team works—implementing AI-powered creative operations that eliminate bottlenecks, cutting design to dev handoff time by 40% while rapidly exploring layouts and variants through Figma AI and Firefly, and mentoring your team through a fundamental technological shift that most design leaders won-t navigate for years. This pace energises impatient high-performers. It exhausts clock-watchers. If you get frustrated when you-re not learning fast enough, you-ll thrive here.

What Is In It For You:

This isn-t just another design leadership role. This is your chance to become a true industry architect.

1. Pioneer the Future of AI-Driven Design

You won-t just use AI tools—you-ll architect an entirely new design operating system. You-ll build prompt libraries, AI-assisted workflows, and quality frameworks that eliminate bottlenecks and cut handoff time by 40%. You-ll design for conversational shopping, semantic search, and AI assistants while your peers are still debating whether to adopt Figma AI. This is your sandbox to experiment with bandit allocation, LLM-powered recommendations, and Gen AI content operations at scale. You-ll master the balance between AI velocity and human craft that most designers won-t understand for years.

2. Join the Elite Organization and Partner with the 1%:

• ? Top 5 Mattress Brand in US with Over $1 Billion USD in Sales
• ? Work with Forbes Council Member CEO
• Gain firsthand exposure to strategic decisions and high-velocity execution that drives a global brand

3. Experience a World-Class Lifestyle

Dubai offers a tax-free income that translates to significantly higher take-home pay compared to most global markets. Enjoy a cosmopolitan environment with world-class infrastructure, year-round sunshine, and a thriving international community of 14+ nationalities. This role includes relocation support, premium health coverage, and annual flights home—all while building your career in one of the world-s most dynamic business hubs.

4. Own the Conversion Engine

You-ll have direct P&L impact with clear metrics: add-to-cart conversion lifts, experiment velocity, and design system adoption. You-ll present quarterly roadmap reviews directly to the CEO, translating design decisions into business narratives that shape company strategy. This isn-t design as decoration—its design as a revenue driver with full executive visibility and accountability.

What You-ll Need:

• 7–10 years in web design for e-commerce, including 4+ years leading, mentoring, and managing the operations of a design team
• A portfolio that shows shipped PDP/PLP/Checkout improvements tied to clear business metrics
• Expert in Figma (components, variables, Dev Mode); strong visual/motion craft and responsive design sensibility
• Proven experience implementing GenAI tools into a professional design pipeline, with a clear understanding of prompt engineering, quality control, and brand governance
• Familiarity with AI-shaped UX patterns: conversational search, assistant UI, recommendation modules, and their measurement
• Comfort collaborating on experiments (A/B vs multi-armed bandits) with Growth; understands trade-offs between optimization speed and causal certainty
• Working knowledge of WCAG 2.2 and SEO fundamentals for structured content and schema on e-commerce sites

Good-to-Have:

• Experience designing chat or guided-selling flows
