Role 

We are looking for a Senior AI-Native Designer & Builder, Design System to join our team. This is a Hybrid role, reporting to the Senior Manager, Product Design in the Product Management department. 

You will participate in the evolution of Zscaler's design ecosystem to ensure product consistency, scalability, and excellence while collaborating closely with Design, Engineering, and cross-functional teams to set visual and structural standards. Working in a fast-paced environment, you design with intention and leverage cutting-edge tools—embracing AI as a daily craft instrument rather than an occasional shortcut. If you believe great design systems are a designer's highest-leverage output and that AI is fundamentally transforming how we build them, we want to talk to you!

What you’ll do (Role Expectations)

• Design, architect, and refine reusable components and interaction patterns, focusing on robust structural relationships, and scalability
• Write clear component specifications, usage guidelines, and standards, leveraging AI to speed up drafting and maintain comprehensive documentation
• Utilize modern, AI-powered developer and design tools (e.g., Cursor, Devin, Claude) to build live prototypes, validate architectural feasibility, and accelerate production implementation
• Partner directly with UI engineers to align design intent with web technologies, ensuring component structures are highly responsive, accessible, and easily consumable
• Actively support product design teams during their adoption of the design system, assisting them in applying component architecture principles and troubleshooting complex layouts

Who You Are (Success Profile)

• Your passion for the mission fuels your bias for action. You operate with integrity because you genuinely care about the outcome. You adapt to what’s needed, navigating seamlessly between high-level strategy and hands-on execution.
• You seek out challenges because you are energized by finding solutions, knowing that solving the hard problems delivers the biggest impact.
• You are ambitious for the team, not just yourself. You embrace our challenge culture by giving and receiving ongoing feedback—knowing that candor delivered with clarity and respect is the truest form of teamwork and the fastest way to earn trust.
• You have a deep curiosity for how things work and are energized by solving complex technical challenges. You believe in the power of technology to accelerate transformation and are always looking for a better, more secure, and scalable way.
• You are skilled at distilling complex problems, user needs, and technical concepts into clear, simple, and actionable plans. You are a precise communicator who brings clarity and focus to every interaction.

What We’re Looking for (Minimum Qualifications)

• Foundational understanding of AI/ML technologies and experience leveraging, securing, or positioning AI-driven solutions to optimize outcomes within your functional domain
• 6+ years of Product/UX Design experience, with at least 1–2 years of dedicated contribution to a multi-product design system
• Demonstrated expertise in systematic component architecture, understanding how individual components roll up into larger patterns, templates, and full applications
• Proven experience integrating AI assistants or modern generation/prototyping tools into your daily design and development workflow to accelerate outcomes and build interactive layouts
• Familiarity with accessibility frameworks (such as WCAG 2.1/2.2 standards) and designing with structural layouts built for responsiveness

What Will Make You Stand Out (Preferred Qualifications)

• Experience using AI-assisted development tools (e.g., Cursor, Claude) to generate, customize, or preview coded components, bringing designs closer to working code.
• Literacy in modern frontend technologies (e.g., React, CSS/HTML, token-driven theming, or JSON properties), enabling you to inspect and discuss code structures directly with developers
• Experience designing systems for cyber security, infrastructure, developer tools, or other highly technical/complex domains
