About Threecolts:

At Threecolts, we're not just building software-we're building the future of Commerce. Our suite of tools powers Marketplace entrepreneurs and global brands selling on Amazon and Walmart. With strong capital backing, a bold vision, and a portfolio of industry-leading products, we're entering a phase of rapid growth-and we need a design leader who's ready to shape what comes next.

The Role:

We're looking for a Design Director who can lead, inspire, and elevate a world-class design function. Someone who gets energy from solving complex business problems through elegant design. A strategic thinker who's not afraid to roll up their sleeves. A natural leader who earns trust, challenges assumptions, and pushes for better-always. If that sounds like you, read on.

This team will own all design across the business -including product UX and UI, web, brand, marketing, and social. You'll be responsible for building a coherent, high-impact design function that drives business outcomes and delights users.

Requirements:
  • Own the strategic vision for design across all touchpoints-from product and UX to web, brand, and marketing.
  • Lead and grow a multidisciplinary team of UX and UI designers
  • Champion design as a business tool-bringing evidence, insight, and creativity to the table.
  • Get hands-on with design work. Sketch, prototype, test, refine. Stay close to the craft.
  • Confidently present ideas and challenge thinking at the highest levels of the company.
  • Operate confidently in a fast-moving, ever-evolving environment where priorities can shift quickly.
  • Collaborate cross-functionally with Product, Engineering, and Marketing to embed design into everything we do.
  • Drive user research and usability testing to uncover real customer insights.
  • Establish and evolve scalable design systems that power fast, high-quality execution and align with our company brand.
  • Advocate for design quality and coherence across all visual and experiential touchpoints.
Responsibilities:
  • 10+ years of experience in UX or product design, with a proven track record of delivering exceptional user experiences.
  • 3+ years experience at leadership level
  • A collaborative mindset with the confidence to speak up, debate ideas, and make tough calls.
  • A portfolio that blends strategic impact with hands-on design excellence.
  • Experience leading, mentoring, and scaling high-performing design teams.
  • Strong systems thinking and product sensibility-you know what good looks like and how to get there.
  • Extensive experience in Figma and other modern design and prototyping tools.
  • Excellent storytelling skills-you can make complex things simple and rally others around your vision.
  • A passion for understanding users and solving real problems.
Why join us?
  • Own design at a company that's scaling fast and thinking big.
  • Work on products that reach thousands of customers worldwide.
  • Join a remote-first, global team of smart, driven people who genuinely care.
  • Make your mark in a company that values design, challenges convention, and moves at speed.

If you're ready to lead design at the heart of a high-growth company-we want to hear from you.
