Cisco Networking is an industry leader providing intelligent network solutions for organizations to securely connect users, devices, applications, and workloads everywhere. We empower organizations everywhere – from local libraries to global hotels – to focus on their mission and have technology that simply works. Cisco has been named #1 Best Company to Work For in the U.S. by Fortune in 2023!

What We Are Looking For

As a Design Lead for Meraki Features and Landing Experiences, you'll drive the design of the Home Screen and Search experiences within the Meraki Dashboard. You’ll shape the vision for these foundational experiences, collaborate across teams to drive alignment, and deliver elegant solutions.

In this role, you will develop and demonstrate deep domain knowledge, product expertise, and an understanding of complex customer use cases and deployment models. You’ll deeply understand the needs of our customers, set the vision for the product grounded in those needs, and partner with cross-functional teams to build it iteratively.

Our team's primary focus is on software, but we also find opportunities to collaborate with teams across the organization and think about how to improve the entire customer journey. Meraki believes the quality of our products is dependent on the quality of our teams. We place a high value on nurturing the growth and development of everyone on our team. We give and get feedback early and often, share what we know, and learn from each other.

Responsibilities

Through UX methodologies, drive early discovery work, using findings to craft short, mid, long-term delivery roadmaps, leading and designing with a team to bring it to life.
Design products: identify the right problems to solve, run and synthesize research, sketch and prototype solutions, make hi-fi visuals.
Earn trust with cross-function partners by seeking out their points of view, collaborating regularly and invite them into research and co-creation with the team and customers. Advocate for prioritization of design-centered product enhancements grounded in research and analysis.

Provide direction to and mentor other designers; guide team to focus on the most important customer needs, difficulties and opportunities
Think beyond your team's goals and consider how your work affects others and how you can influence other teams’ work.
Influence the strategic vision and guide design of large, complex initiatives for a product, program or strategic effort of considerable size and scope.
Translate what may start as ambiguous business needs into clear customer-focused solutions.
Facilitate workshops, sketching and prototyping sessions; build documentation and templates that enable others to consume and contribute.

You're an ideal candidate if you have:

8+ years of professional experience designing and delivering products in cross-functional teams from strategy to delivery.
Knowledge of the networking domain or experience in a related product or field is a plus.
Experience working on technically complex B2B enterprise products
Aligned teams around customer-centered design decisions, using UX methodologies and tools (double-diamond, personas, journey mapping, dual agile, lean ux, prototypes), and influenced adoption by those who aren’t familiar with strategic UX engagements.
A proven track record of shipping large scale enterprise products.
Ability to see the bigger picture, while zooming in to rationalize and perfect the nuanced details.
Made complex problems and workflows feel simple and approachable.
Balanced strategic research and discovery with shipping often.

When available, the salary range posted for this position reflects the projected hiring range for new hire, full-time salaries in U.S. and/or Canada locations, not including equity or benefits. For non-sales roles the hiring ranges reflect base salary only; employees are also eligible to receive annual bonuses. Hiring ranges for sales positions include base and incentive compensation target. Individual pay is determined by the candidate's hiring location and additional factors, including but not limited to skillset, experience, and relevant education, certifications, or training. Applicants may not be eligible for the full salary range based on their U.S. or Canada hiring location.

U.S. employees have access to quality medical, dental and vision insurance, a 401(k) plan with a Cisco matching contribution, short and long-term disability coverage, basic life insurance and numerous wellbeing offerings. Employees receive up to twelve paid holidays per calendar year, which includes one floating holiday, plus a day off for their birthday. Employees accrue up to 20 days of Paid Time Off (PTO) each year and have access to paid time away to deal with critical or emergency issues without tapping into their PTO. We offer additional paid time to volunteer and give back to the community. Employees are also able to purchase company stock through our Employee Stock Purchase Program.

Employees on sales plans earn performance-based incentive pay on top of their base salary, which is split between quota and non-quota components. For quota-based incentive pay, Cisco pays at the standard rate of 1% of incentive target for each 1% revenue attainment against the quota up to 100%. Once performance exceeds 100% quota attainment, incentive rates may increase up to five times the standard rate with no cap on incentive compensation. For non-quota-based sales performance elements such as strategic sales objectives, Cisco may pay up to 125% of target. Cisco sales plans do not have a minimum threshold of performance for sales incentive compensation to be paid.
