More than 500,000 agents login to our platforms each day. We're rapidly expanding our team in our Denver, CO office. ## About the Role We're looking for a Product Owner who lives at the intersection of design and product strategy. This role owns the design-driven product backlog for our website and platform experiences — translating vision and user needs into polished, well-specified work using

• Figma
• and
• Claude Design

•. You'll be the bridge between business strategy, customer needs, and the development team, ensuring every shipped experience is not just functional, but genuinely well-designed.

This is a hands-on role:

you won't just write requirements, you'll actively prototype, critique, and refine designs in Figma & Claude Design alongside designers and engineers, then own the backlog that turns those designs into shipped product. ## I. Vision & Strategy

• Define and evangelize the product's design vision — the "why" behind the experience, its long-term direction, and how it aligns with company strategy. Communicate this clearly to stakeholders and the development team.
• Develop and maintain a design-forward product roadmap, sequencing key features, releases, and design initiatives based on market trends, user needs, and business objectives.
• Conduct market and competitive research, with a specific eye on design trends, interaction patterns, and emerging tools in the web/UX landscape.
• Deeply understand target users — their workflows, pain points, goals, and expectations for a well-designed digital experience. ## II. Design & Backlog Ownership
• Own the CMS/product backlog, including design-related work: mockups, prototypes, design specs, and UI/UX tickets — ensuring it's the single source of truth for design and development work.
• Build and iterate on prototypes and mockups directly in
• Figma
• and
• Claude Design
• , translating high-level concepts into concrete, testable design artifacts.
• Create and refine user stories with clear acceptance criteria, including visual/interaction specifications derived from Figma files, so design intent survives the handoff to engineering.
• Prioritize backlog items based on business value, design quality, technical feasibility, risk, and dependencies.
• Ensure design and backlog items are "ready" — sufficiently detailed, reviewed, and approved before entering a sprint.
• Manage design dependencies across teams (design system, front-end, other product squads) to minimize roadblocks. ## III. Stakeholder Communication & Collaboration
• Serve as the primary point of contact for design
• and product-related inquiries from internal (sales, marketing, support, leadership) and external (customers, partners) stakeholders.
• Present design concepts, prototypes, and progress — using Figma and Claude Design artifacts — to communicate direction clearly to non-design audiences.
• Gather and synthesize feedback from customer support, sales, user testing, and analytics to inform design and product decisions.
• Facilitate design workshops and critique sessions to gather requirements, validate concepts, and align stakeholders around a direction.
• Manage competing priorities and expectations among stakeholders, balancing design quality against timeline and scope. ## IV. Development Team Collaboration
• Act as the voice of the customer and the champion of design quality throughout the development lifecycle.
• Be available to the development team to clarify design intent, answer questions, and make timely decisions on backlog items.
• Actively participate in refinement, sprint planning, sprint reviews, and retrospectives.
• Review completed work against both functional acceptance criteria and design fidelity (comparing shipped work to the Figma/Claude Design source of truth) before accepting.
• Foster a collaborative environment between design, product, and engineering. ## V. Product & Design Performance
• Define and track KPIs relevant to design quality and product success — engagement, conversion, usability metrics, load speed, accessibility compliance, and SEO performance.
• Analyze usage data and A/B test results to identify where design changes could improve outcomes.
• Monitor user feedback and support tickets for recurring usability or design issues.
• Continuously identify opportunities to improve usability, visual quality, and overall experience.
• Support product launches and post-launch design iteration in partnership with marketing and sales. ## VI. Domain Expertise
• Hands-on proficiency with Figma
• (prototyping, components, design systems, developer handoff) and
• Claude Design
• for rapid concepting, mockups, and iteration using our design systems.
• Solid understanding of web development technologies relevant to design handoff/
• Strong grounding in UX/UI principles — information architecture, interaction design, visual hierarchy, and accessibility (WCAG) and a11y based design frameworks.
• Awareness of performance, security, and scalability considerations as they intersect with design decisions. ## Requirements
• Experience as a Product Owner, Product Manager, or similar role with significant design ownership.
• Demonstrated portfolio or work history showing hands-on use of Figma; familiarity with AI-assisted design tools (Claude Design or similar) is a strong plus.
• Strong written and verbal communication skills for translating design intent across technical and non-technical audiences.
• Based in or willing to work from our
• Denver, CO
• office during normal business hours. ## Nice to Have
• Background in real estate technology, MLS platforms, or B2B SaaS.
• Experience with design systems and Figma component libraries at scale.
• Familiarity with agile/Scrum ceremonies and backlog tools, or any experience in a software factory / high speed prototype to launch enterprise.
