The Role

As a Lead Product Designer at Veeva, you'll set the design direction for one of our core Vault product areas and help shape how the design team works at its best. We're looking for a seasoned designer who combines strong craft with the judgment and presence to lead - someone who can define the vision for a feature, drive alignment across Product, Engineering, and Design, and raise the quality of the work around them.

This role goes beyond execution. You'll be the design authority in your product area, a thought partner to Product and Design leadership, and a meaningful contributor to how we grow and develop our design practice.

What You'll Do

• Drive the design vision and strategy for your product area; drive alignment with Design, Engineering and Product Leadership
• Own the design of complex, high-impact features from early concept throught final delivery - executing at every stage of the lifecycle
• Set a high bar for craft, consistency, and user experience within your area; contribute shared design systems and patterns that scale across the product. Champion all.
• Mentor and develop other designers through critique, feedback, and pairing - making the team better through your presence and judgment
• Serve as the design voice in cross-functional planning, representing the team's perspective and influencing product decisions upstream.
• Partner with Product Management to shape strategy and requirements, not just respond to them
• Own a point of view on how AI fits into the design workflow - actively piloting tools, sharing what works, and building team habits that make every designer faster and more capable

Requirements

• 8+ years of product design experience with web applications/products
• Extensive experience in a senior individual contributor role on a product design team
• An outstanding portfolio, showcasing a foundation in Typography, Interaction, Visual Design, and Ideation
• Ability and enjoyment of designing end-to-end experiences, including UX and Visual Design.
• Experience working and collaborating with diverse teams in a dynamic and rapid growth environment
• Experience partnering with Product Managers to develop strategy and rationale for features
• Experience with prototyping to explore and convey design solutions
• Strong belief in user-centered design principles
• The ability to work independently to troubleshoot technical and process-related issues
• Self-sufficient and go-getter. Ability to seek out answers to your own questions
• Amazing time management skills, with prior experience in a time sensitive development environment
• Must have online portfolio accompanying their resume/cv

Work Where It's Best for You

Work Anywhere means you can work in an office or at home on any given day. It's about getting the work done in the way and place that works best for each person. This applies across all locations and departments.

Work Anywhere does not mean work at any time. We have predictable core hours where employees are generally available for meetings and collaboration. Employees are focused and available during core hours.

We invest in our offices to make them places where our employees like to go. If you work in the office three or more days a week, you will have a dedicated office workspace. Our offices function as hubs to draw people in, create social bonds, and where random connections and mixing of ideas happen. We're investing more in offices, culture, and offsite meetings, not less.

Product teams are organized in regional product hubs for optimal collaboration and live within a time zone of their hub. Our current product hubs are located in Pleasanton, Columbus, Boston, Kansas City, New York City, Raleigh, and Toronto. We create opportunities for teams to get together in person regularly.

Customer-facing roles, such as Sales and Professional Services, live near and/or travel to their customers.

When an employee moves within a country it does not cause a change in salary. Where you live impacts you and your family. Not knowing if your compensation will change if you move can cause stress and uncertainty for everyone. We wanted to eliminate that.

Work at Veeva. Work where it's best for you.

A different kind of company. A Public Benefit Corporation.

Unlike a traditional corporation, whose only legal duty is to maximize shareholder value, PBCs consider their public benefit purpose and the interests of those materially affected by the corporation's conduct-including customers, employees, and the community-in addition to shareholders' interests.

Public Benefit Corporation

In February 2021, Veeva became the first public company to convert to a Public Benefit Corporation (PBC).

Unlike a traditional corporation, whose only legal duty is to maximize shareholder value, PBCs consider their public benefit purpose and the interests of those materially affected by the corporation's conduct-including customers, employees, and the community-in addition to shareholders' interests.

Veeva's public benefit purpose is to help make the industries we serve more productive and create high-quality employment opportunities.

Veeva Giving

At Veeva, we believe in giving back. Veeva's support for charitable causes is entirely employee driven because we think giving is personal and should be directed by the individual. With our 1% Veeva Giving program, each employee receives an amount equivalent to 1% of their base salary annually to support the non-profit(s) of their choice. We don't dictate favored corporate causes or ask employees to donate to specific non-profits. We never support a charitable cause in exchange for commercial advantage or preferential treatment.

Corporate Citizenship

Veeva's core values - do the right thing, customer success, employee success, and speed - guide our decision making and define our culture. Doing the right thing means that we are concerned about more than just financial success and return to shareholders. We recognize a responsibility to customers, employees, environment, and society.As individuals, we pride ourselves on being good people who are honest, fair, and direct. We treat others with respect. As a company, we strive to be a good corporate citizen, a positive force in the business community, active in our communities, and an example to others.

Employees are Shareholders

Our equity program is designed to enable the vast majority of our employees to participate. Our unique approach to awarding equity grants allows our employees to be shareholders so they can benefit financially in the company's growth.

Non-Competes

Veeva has taken a strong stance against the use of non-compete agreements that can limit employee opportunities. We do not require our employees to sign non-compete agreements, and we have taken legal action to fight the unfair use of these agreements by other companies because we believe such agreements limit an employee's fundamental right to work where they choose. We believe in our people and want them to be successful here at Veeva or wherever their careers take them.
