About this role

[REDACTED]'s mission is to inspire creativity that brings people together. We support those who create and shape culture around the world. It's a product where design taste shapes the product strategy — from the camera to the grid to Stories to Reels, the biggest bets have been design-led.

This is a high-impact role focused on shaping the experiences that define how people share, discover, create, and connect on [REDACTED]. You'll work as a key design leader on a cross-functional team of product managers, engineers, data scientists, and researchers.

As a Product Designer on [REDACTED], you'll have the opportunity to play a central role in the way we build technologies — ensuring they are valuable, easy to use, and of a high level of craft and execution. You'll be involved in every aspect of the product development process, from brainstorming the next great product innovation to tweaking pixels right before launch. We'll expect you to utilize your full range of product design, interaction design, and visual design skills, while contributing to high-level strategic decisions with product and executive partners.
