Senior Product Designer, Practice Areas
Clio
Clio is more than just a tech company–we are a global leader that is transforming the legal experience for all by bettering the lives of legal professionals while increasing access to justice.
Summary:
We are seeking a Senior Product Designer to lead the evolution of our practice area-specific solutions, focusing on building and enhancing legal workflows. This role is available to candidates across the United States or Canada (excluding Quebec) in a remote capacity. If you are local to one of our hubs (Burnaby, Calgary, or Toronto) you will be expected to be in office minimum two days per week for our Anchor Days.
What your team does:
At Clio, “practice areas” refers to the specific branches of law such as family, criminal, or corporate law, that impact how lawyers deliver services to their clients. Success in this role means enabling lawyers to adopt Clio more deeply into their day-to-day practice while giving our platform the flexibility to expand into new legal domains quickly and sustainably.
This role is a strategic individual contributor position that blends ownership of experiential strategy with close collaboration across Design, Product, and Engineering. You will help shape the future of our legal platform by integrating AI and automation at the core of practice-area workflows to make legal work more simple, smart, and human.
Design is central to Clio's R&D, working alongside Product, Research, Data Science, and Engineering to revolutionize legal tech. We empower our Designers to deeply understand user needs, shaping how lawyers serve their clients. If you are passionate about user-centered design, mission-driven companies, and transforming how lawyers and their staff deliver exceptional client services, join us!
What you'll work on:
Own the design strategy and execution for practice area expansion, defining seamless end-to-end workflows for how legal work gets done–from intake to resolution. This is a nascent space for Clio, so we’re looking for someone eager to drive the agenda and make their mark.
Collaborate cross-functionally with Product, Engineering, and AI teams to build smart, scalable systems that support a wide range of practice areas and firm types.
Leverage user research and real-world data to understand practitioner needs and design solutions that simplify, automate, and elevate their daily work.
Contribute to our design system and foundational UX patterns to ensure consistency, accessibility, and performance across our growing platform.
Coach and mentor designers, sharing your expertise in complex systems design, prototyping, and storytelling.
Champion accessibility and inclusion, ensuring every lawyer, staff member, and client can access the tools they need to succeed
What you bring:
6+ years of product design experience, ideally within SaaS or enterprise software.
Proven success designing for complex, high-impact domains such as workflow tools, or automation.
Strong UX craft across research, data analysis, interaction, visual design, and prototyping (we use Figma).
Solid orientation in service and systems design, with experience mapping, automating, and optimizing collaborative workflows.
Experience experimenting with AI/ML solutions, or designing for automation, personalization, or intelligent workflows.
Deep understanding of accessibility standards (WCAG) and inclusive design.
Excellent communication and stakeholder management skills.
Enthusiasm for mentorship, collaboration, and continuous learning.
Nice to have:
Experience working in the legal industry or legal tech.
