Job description
Requisition ID: 1747022
At EY, we’re all in to shape your future with confidence.
We’ll help you succeed in a globally connected powerhouse of diverse teams and take your career wherever you want it to go. Join EY and help to build a better working world.
EY is a leader in serving the global financial services marketplace and the only professional services firm with a separate business unit dedicated to the financial services industry – the Financial Services Organization (FSO). Our focused model and bold ambition have put us at the center of the events that continue to reshape and redefine our industry, working side by side with a range of clients from our most venerable institutions to dynamic new entrants across Banking and Capital Markets, Wealth and Asset Management, Insurance, and Real Estate, Hospitality and Construction. Our purpose is to help build a financial services industry in which financial institutions are trusted and flourish, and the global economy is healthy, growing, and secure. If you have a passion for rallying together to solve complex challenges, then join our dynamic FSO team!
The opportunity
The Product and Experience Design (PxD) Team, part of the Platforms competency within FSO Technology Consulting, works collaboratively with clients to transform their businesses through disruptive innovation and human-centered design. Our designers, researchers, technologists, and strategists work together to create superior apps, websites and software, supported by research, brand strategy, and a clear understanding of business and user needs.
Our clients are at different points in their AI adoption journey, but we design AI first. Our work starts in an LLM, moves quickly into prototypes, and lands in Figma for systems and polish. We also design the AI-enabled and agentic experiences our clients are bringing to market.
We’re looking for a talented and collaborative Product Design Manager who loves working with and learning from a multidisciplinary team, creates exceptional experiences, and excels at communicating with clients.
Your key responsibilities
As a Product Design Manager, you lead design delivery efforts across an engagement. You run multidisciplinary teams of designers, researchers, and technologists alongside client stakeholders. You are accountable for the quality of the experience we deliver, the economics of your workstreams, the development of junior designers on your team, and the client relationships that follow the work. You also shape how the practice designs: its standards, its tooling, how your teams use AI to accelerate the work, how judgment stays with the designer, and the case design. Outside client engagements, you will lead business development activities, including pursuits and proposals, and practice-building activities such as mentoring teams and developing and delivering training.
Skills and attributes for success
- Design leadership: Hold the quality bar across multiple workstreams, balancing scope, pace, resourcing, and craft. Lead critique and direct the work of Senior and Staff designers. Govern design systems and brand guidelines for consistency, scalability, and accessibility. Participate in hands-on design delivery where necessary and stay close enough to the design itself to direct it credibly.
- Evidence, outcomes, and value: Set the research and measurement approach for each engagement. Tie design decisions to client KPIs and business outcomes and build the business case for design work in language a sponsor can take to a steering committee.
- Setting how the practice uses AI: Define the standards, tool selection, review process and safeguards for AI-assisted design work. Be familiar with the evolving tooling landscape, including Claude, Cursor and Figma Make. Build reusable accelerators, templates, prompts and patterns. Raise the team’s capability, by example.
- AI-enabled and agentic experience strategy: Define the interaction philosophy and pattern library for AI-enabled and agentic experiences across engagements. Advise clients where AI genuinely adds value in an experience and where it does not. Challenge patterns that retrofit chat onto workflows that do not need it.
- Responsible AI in a regulated industry: Embed explainability, transparency, human-in-the-loop control, accessibility, fairness and model-risk considerations into design decisions. Embed them into the governance around those decisions. Partner with risk, compliance, legal and model owners as a matter of course.
- Making the case for design with executives: Advise client leadership on experience strategy and design operating models. Develop executive narratives and hold a defensible position under challenge. Educate client executives and internal EY teams on why the work is needed and what it returns. The aim is to build design into pursuits, programs, and technology initiatives early on.
- Client maturity and capability: Assess a client’s design and technology maturity. Define a roadmap from where they are to where they need to be. Build client capability through coaching and structured knowledge transfer.
- Engagement and practice leadership: Lead workstream delivery, engagement economics, budgets and resource plans. Identify additional service opportunities and lead design content in RFP responses. Develop people through coaching and feedback.
To qualify for the role, you must have
- Bachelor's degree in graphic design, UX Design, Interaction Design, Industrial or Product Design or a related field, and 5 years of progressive, post-baccalaureate work experience in product or UX design, with strong exposure to enterprise platforms or complex systems. Alternatively, will accept a master's degree and 4 years of work experience.
- Demonstrated experience leading design on complex or regulated products. A portfolio that shows both craft and outcomes.
- Experience directing and developing other designers. Experience balancing multiple workstreams or engagements while protecting experience quality.
- Advanced proficiency in Figma and hands-on experience contributing to design systems. Fluency in Agile delivery using Jira or equivalent tool.
- Regular use of LLMs and AI-assisted design tools such as Claude, Cursor or Figma Make in your own practice. Experience setting how a team uses them.
- Proven ability to design data-heavy, role-based experiences.
- Ability to communicate effectively with senior business, technology and risk stakeholders, including executive-ready presentations. A high degree of ownership in a fast-paced, highly regulated environment.
- Requires domestic and regional travel up to 80% to serve client needs.
Ideally, you’ll also have
- Consulting or client-advisory experience in a design, product or experience capacity.
- Experience in financial services: banking and capital markets, wealth and asset management, insurance, or real estate, hospitality and construction.
- Experience standing up or reshaping a design capability, operating model or design system in another organization.
- Background in business analysis, process design, or product management. Experience supporting pursuits and RFP responses.
What we look for
A design leader who is as comfortable in a critique as in a steering committee. Someone with a clear point of view on where AI belongs in an experience and where it does not. Someone who can hold that view in front of a client executive and change it when the evidence says so. Someone who makes the people around them better: their team, their client counterparts, and the engagement leaders who ask for design earlier next time because of how this one went.
What we offer you
At EY, we harness our collective strength to empower you to shape your future with confidence through professional growth, personal fulfillment and an inclusive culture.
- We offer a comprehensive compensation and benefits package where you’ll be rewarded based on your performance and recognized for the value you bring to the business. The base salary range for this job is:

Get Access To All JobsTips for Finding Visa Sponsorship as a Product Design Engineer
Emphasize CAD and technical modeling skills
Highlight proficiency in SolidWorks, AutoCAD, or Fusion 360 in your applications. These specialized software skills demonstrate the technical expertise that makes your role clearly qualify as a specialty occupation.
Document your engineering degree relevance
Ensure your mechanical, industrial, or product design engineering degree directly connects to your role responsibilities. USCIS closely examines degree-to-job alignment for engineering positions during adjudication.
Target manufacturing and product companies
Focus on employers with established H-1B sponsorship programs in manufacturing, consumer goods, and hardware development. These industries regularly sponsor Product Design Engineers and understand the visa process.
Showcase prototype development experience
Detail your hands-on experience building prototypes, testing designs, and iterating products. Physical product development skills distinguish you from software roles and strengthen your specialty occupation case.
Prepare for technical interview depth
Be ready to explain complex design decisions, manufacturing constraints, and engineering trade-offs. Sponsoring employers need to document your specialized knowledge for successful visa petitions.
Frequently Asked Questions
Do Product Design Engineers qualify for H-1B specialty occupation requirements?
Yes, Product Design Engineers typically qualify easily since the role requires specialized engineering knowledge and a bachelor's degree in engineering, industrial design, or related field. The technical nature of CAD modeling, prototype development, and manufacturing process design clearly meets USCIS specialty occupation criteria.
How to find Product Design Engineer jobs with visa sponsorship?
To find Product Design Engineer jobs with visa sponsorship, use Migrate Mate, which specializes in connecting international talent with sponsoring employers. Focus on manufacturing companies, automotive firms, consumer electronics businesses, and tech startups that commonly hire Product Design Engineers. These employers frequently offer H-1B visa, TN visa, and O-1 visas for qualified engineers with product development experience.
What degree do I need for visa sponsorship as a Product Design Engineer?
You need a bachelor's degree in mechanical engineering, industrial engineering, product design, or a closely related engineering field. Some employers accept industrial design degrees if combined with strong technical coursework. The degree must directly relate to the engineering aspects of the role.
Which industries sponsor Product Design Engineers most frequently?
Manufacturing companies, consumer electronics firms, automotive companies, and hardware startups sponsor Product Design Engineers regularly. Companies like Apple, Tesla, Dyson, and medical device manufacturers have established H-1B programs for engineering roles. Focus on companies with physical product development needs.
Can I get sponsored if my background is more industrial design than engineering?
It depends on your degree and technical depth. Pure industrial design backgrounds face more scrutiny, but if you have engineering coursework, CAD skills, and technical product development experience, sponsorship is possible. Emphasize any engineering analysis, manufacturing knowledge, or technical problem-solving in your application materials.
How long does H-1B processing take for Product Design Engineers?
Standard H-1B processing takes 4-6 months, but engineering roles often face fewer RFEs (requests for evidence) than other fields, potentially speeding approval. Premium processing guarantees a 15-day response. Most Product Design Engineer petitions are straightforward since the role clearly requires specialized technical knowledge.
What is the prevailing wage requirement for sponsored Product Design Engineer jobs?
U.S. employers sponsoring a visa must pay at least the prevailing wage, which is what workers in the same role, area, and experience level typically earn. The Department of Labor sets this rate to make sure companies aren't hiring foreign workers simply because they'd accept lower pay than a U.S. worker. It varies by job title, location, and experience. You can look up current prevailing wage rates for any occupation and location using the OFLC Wage Search page.
