You’ll work closely with product, engineering, data, and design leadership to craft user-centric solutions that drive AI functionality, retention, increase subscriptions, and deepen member connection.

You will bring a strong point of view on how design can unlock growth while balancing user trust, inclusivity, and brand integrity. • Experimentation and iteration: Design and support experiments with a bias toward learning. You will collaborate with PMs and analysts to define success metrics, evaluate results, and iterate quickly based on insights. • Design leadership and influence: Raise the bar for design quality across the team by setting standards, providing thoughtful feedback, and advocating for user centered decision making. You will help ensure consistency and scalability across our portfolio of apps. • Mentorship and team development: Support the growth of other designers through informal mentorship, design critiques, and collaboration.
