Design sits at the centre of this mission and its purpose is to deliver a seamless, accessible and enjoyable experience for our users. Our team of 40+ product designers work across different tracks that are divided into cross-functional squads each consisting of Engineering, Product and Design. Autonomy, trust and transparency are the key values upon which our culture is built, this is directly reflected in how our designers operate on a day-to-day basis.
At Pennylane, designers are expected to actively contribute all the way from defining the problem space, to research and testing.
We are seeking a Design System Manager to own Purse, our design system, as a product: its vision, roadmap, governance, and quality bar. As we grow from 40 to 60+ designers across web, mobile, and tablet in multiple languages, you’ll set the long-term direction of the system while staying hands-on and building it yourself, providing craft leadership to our Design System Designers and tapering direct production as the team grows. You’ll partner with the Design Ops Manager on shared priorities and with engineering on design–code parity.
You’ll be accountable for how the system scales, how it’s adopted, and how it evolves toward an AI-ready future. If you think about a design system as a product — with users, a roadmap, a quality bar, and adoption metrics — and you love balancing long-term vision with pragmatic, milestone-driven delivery, you’ll thrive at Pennylane.
