About this role

  • [REDACTED] is seeking a Staff Product Designer, Mobile to own the design direction across our apps and lead the craft of every designer who works on them.
  • This is a senior individual contributor role with manager-level scope: you carry the design direction and UX/UI patterns across three teams (Apps Meta, Apps Retention, and Mobile Design Systems) while still designing and shipping yourself.
  • You set the quality bar for all Apps design output, you hold it across teams, and you keep engineering pointed at the right work. You are the technical lead for apps design, accountable for the quality and velocity of what the apps designers produce, without managing them directly
  • Own the design direction and the UX/UI pattern system across the apps surface. Navigation, mental models, and UI consistency cut across Apps Meta, Retention, and Design Systems at once, and you hold that cross-cutting direction so three teams ship one coherent experience rather than three versions of it
  • Set the quality standard for apps design and hold it as a discipline, not a project. Make the bar visible where teams miss it, and close gaps across teams that you did not personally create. You are accountable for the quality and velocity of all apps design output
  • Run planning and discovery for all three teams. Break multi-team, loosely defined problems into clear design direction the designers can run with
  • Partner with the Director of Product for Apps and the apps PMs on core initiatives, influencing roadmap and prioritization through design rationale
  • Lead native craft across iOS and Android. Set the approach for resizability, foldables, new screen sizes, and solve how [REDACTED] responds to platform chrome shifts like Liquid Glass and Material 3 Expressive
  • Lead the design approach for mobile AI features: how we integrate AI into the apps, the UI, and the navigation around it, so it lands as a native part of the experience
  • Drive the brand differentiation work for our portfolio of hero brands apps like [REDACTED] to ensure local market dominance
  • Raise the ceiling for the other apps designers through critique, shared standards, and patterns they build on. Designers should get better by working alongside you and using what you establish, not only through direct mentorship

Benefits

  • Work flexibly: Our global flexible work policy lets our teams decide if they head into one of our offices or work from anywhere else
  • Team-wide time off: Most of our team disconnects at the same time each year to recharge and reconnect
  • Global volunteer week: Take VTO (Volunteer Time Off) to support the organizations and charitable efforts you believe in
  • Wellness: We take care of each other - providing opportunities and spaces to live that work-life balance
  • Resource groups: Our five ERGs are employee-led groups for underrepresented communities and their allies
  • Career growth: We provide opportunities for our team to develop their skills – or learn new ones – on their own terms
