The Design Opportunity
Design at Luxury Presence is core to our mission: to empower real estate entrepreneurs with elegant, user-centered tools. We believe great design starts with understanding — of the customer, the problem, and the context. Our best work is driven by curiosity about how people think, what they need, and where their current tools fall short.
We value usability not as a feature, but as a baseline expectation. At the same time, we hold a high bar for visual quality, celebrating simplicity, consistency, and purposeful design.
The Design Manager role is a new position for our team — a player-coach who balances hands-on product design with people leadership. This is ideal for a senior-level designer who wants to continue shaping product experiences while also guiding and developing a small team of designers.

You’ll own product experiences end-to-end in a defined area while also guiding a small group of designers to do their best work.
