Design

team

Bringing unseen complexity to life.

Design at hx sits at the intersection of craft excellence, AI and product complexity: where designers set the bar and are trusted beyond their level.

Explore our Teams

Product Design

Product designers at hx own the parts of the product that customers live inside every day. You translate specialty insurance workflows - often messy and hidden - into clear interaction, usability and visual design. Designers move across the full surface from discovery to detailed execution, pairing craft excellence with serious domain learning so that what we build feels human and reliable.

Product Design

Design Engineering

Design engineers at hx shorten the distance between idea and working product. You take concepts closer to a real skeleton using AI-native tools, interactive prototypes and codebase exploration. This craft helps engineers pick work up with confidence, ensures designs stay feasible, and allows the team to explore further in the same amount of time without creating brittle one-offs.

Design Engineering

Most design teams add polish at the end - ours define what sells and ships.

Autonomy is a feature of the job, not a perk you earn later.

Design is a spectrum here, not a set of boxes.

Partnership is the craft - without it the work doesn’t matter.

Design decisions are made in conversation with engineering, not in isolation.

We design enablement, not just features.

How design is structured

Design is a craft-first team with a few key dimensions

Design is a craft-first team with a few key dimensions

The crafts

Designers shape the standard: product design, design engineering, and brand expression - working together as generalist partners.

Core dimension: two homes

Designers work with two centres of gravity, central design direction and product embedding in the Engineering Product Design trio.

AI and product engine

PMs and product ops shaping how AI shows up in our products and our internal workflows, turning emerging capability into into something customers trust in production.

The Role of AI

AI is part of how we design, not an add on.

We use AI tools to:

  • turn prototypes into near working skeletons that engineers can grab

  • explore ideas more deeply in the same amount of time

  • analyse customer insight and code level constraints

  • begin to encode our design language so agents can support reviews and enablement

Growth and feedback loops

You will learn an unfamiliar domain in depth. Insurance is more complex and more nuanced than it first appears.

At the same time, you will see your work land and have impact quickly.

We are still standing up many systems for the first time. Product development cycles are designed for quick learning.

at hx, you will need

The patterns of our very best design people

They lead with craft and conviction

They have a strong point of view on what excellence looks like. They move confidently across visual design, interaction and usability, and they care deeply about the details that make experiences work.

They embrace complexity, not surface fixes

They don't assume the domain is simple just because the tools look outdated. They develop real knowledge of insurance workflows, unwritten rules and customer context - and design experiences that respect that depth.

They separate ideas from identity

They treat feedback as a gift, not a threat. They can move a design left or right if it leads to a better outcome, and they help teammates do the same without ego getting in the way.

What the environment gives back

Design has a voice from day one

You are not decorating finished ideas. Design sits at the centre of how the product sells, works and feels. Your work materially affects business outcomes, and leadership expects you to have a point of view.

Responsibility beyond your level

You own significant, meaningful work earlier than almost anywhere else. The team is small and flat. Influence comes from the quality of your thinking, not your title.

Deep complexity. Fast feedback.

You work in a domain that is harder than it first appears - and you see the impact of your decisions in days and weeks, not quarters. The learning curve is steep, but the feedback loop is immediate.

The Anatomy of an hxer

  • Comfortable with ambiguity

  • Ownership beyond role

  • Low ego, high standards

  • Bias for depth

  • Intellectually curious

  • Commercially aware

  • Self-disciplined
