• About HighLevel Design Team
• HighLevel is building the platform that helps agencies and small businesses grow: marketing, sales, messaging, automation, payments, reputation, and customer management in one product suite. The product is broad, fast-moving, and used by customers who depend on speed, reliability, and clear workflows every day.

The Product Design team is entering a new stage. We are just under 30 people today, spanning product design, research, design systems, and content strategy, with another 12-16 hires expected as the business scales. We have strong momentum and a company-wide bias toward velocity. Now we need a design operating model that can keep pace with that velocity while raising the bar for clarity, craft, coordination, and launch readiness.

We are hiring our first Design Program Manager to help build that model.

• About The Role
• As Design Program Manager, you will be the operating partner for Product Design. You will help the team mature an inconsistent and unruly design process into a clear, lightweight, repeatable system without slowing down the company's well-established ability to move quickly.

This is a foundational role embedded in the Product Design team. You will report into HighLevel's centralized program management office within the Office of the CTO, with a dotted-line partnership to the VP of Product Design. You will work closely with design leaders, product managers, engineering leaders, research, and data to improve how design work is planned, reviewed, staffed, communicated, and shipped. You will create the rituals and engagement models that help designers do better work, help cross-functional teams understand where design is headed, and help leaders see risks before they become fires.

This is not a heavyweight process role. The right person knows how to add just enough structure to improve quality and coordination while preserving urgency, ownership, and momentum.
