[What you will be working on]

We are looking for an experienced Product Designer to design and deliver intuitive, high-quality digital products that simplify complex systems and workflows. The role will work across the end-to-end product lifecycle—from problem framing and user research to design, delivery, and impact—collaborating closely with product, engineering, and business stakeholders.

The ideal candidate combines strong product and design thinking with an understanding of technology, including APIs, system integrations, data-driven interfaces, and permissions. They will help shape the design direction, raise overall product quality, translate insights into actionable solutions, and use clear communication and storytelling to align stakeholders around a compelling design vision.

This role will be working on the following 2 products/services:

(1) Helpdesk - A system that serves both public officers using central systems managed by AGD and members of public using AGD’s services.

(2) Internal Audit - A system that digitalises the internal audit process, harmonises practices and provide insights through seamless sharing of audit data to identify trends and risks across agencies and domains.

• Lead the end-to-end design for platforms and government products including dashboards and integration experiences.

• Use user insights and research to frame the right problems and set product direction.

• Implement systems, standards, and patterns that bring clarity and consistency to services at scale.

• Lead by doing — prototype and model approaches for technically complex products, showing what good looks like and setting benchmarks for quality.

• Partner with engineers, product managers, and policymakers to bridge user needs with technical and business realities.

• Track measures of success to show the impact of design in the products.

[Who we are looking for] 

• Experience in designing and shipping digital products end-to-end — from insight to impact.

• A portfolio that shows how you’ve made complex systems simple — across enterprise platforms, workflow solutions, or other large-scale products.

• Experience shaping design and raising the quality of products.

• Experience in problem framing, research, and storytelling — turning insight into action and inspiring others around it.

• Comfort working at the edge of tech and design — fluent enough in APIs, system integrations, data-driven interfaces, and permissions models to co-create with engineers.

• Clear communication and storytelling skills to bring stakeholders together around a bold design vision.
