CarDekho Group runs one of India's largest auto classifieds platforms, where millions of users search, compare, and buy/sell vehicles every month. We're hiring a UI Designer Lead to build and scale the design system powering our consumer surfaces for search & discovery, listing pages, and transaction flows, and to raise the design bar across the team.
What You'll Own -
- Build a scalable, component-based design system from the ground up (or mature an existing one) across web, Android, and iOS
- Define tokens, patterns, and documentation that let designers and engineers ship consistent UI faster
- Own governance: what gets added to the system, versioning, and adoption across squads
- Use AI tools to scale design output — generating component variants, automating documentation, speeding up handoff to engineering, and reducing repetitive production work across the team
- Lead UI design for high-traffic surfaces across the classifieds funnel (search, listing detail, filters, buyer/seller flows)
- Set the visual and interaction quality bar for the team, reviewing and raising the level of others work
- Partner with product and engineering leads to validate designs against usage data and iterate post-launch
- Mentor and review the work of other UI/product designers, including how they use AI in their own workflow
- Represent design in cross-functional planning, making the call on build-vs-reuse-from-system tradeoffs
What We Expect You to Bring -
Must-Have
- 4–6 years of UI design experience, including direct experience building or scaling a design system
- Experience designing for B2C or e-commerce products at meaningful scale (high-traffic, conversion-driven surfaces)
- Strong command of Figma (or equivalent), including component architecture, variants, and design tokens
- Practical experience using AI tools (e.g., Figma AI, Midjourney, Claude, or similar) to speed up design production, ideation, or documentation
- Demonstrated ability to design consistently across web and mobile app platforms
- Comfort working with data — using funnel metrics, heatmaps, or A/B results to inform design and system decisions
- Experience reviewing or mentoring other designers, even informally
- Prior experience in classifieds, marketplace, or auto/mobility industry products
- Experience partnering directly with design engineers/frontend teams on a component library (e.g., Storybook)
- Experience setting up AI-assisted workflows or tooling for a design team (not just individual use)
