The Senior Product Designer will set the design vision for the MapMy product portfolio, lead end-to-end design across mobile and web experiences, develop an AI-accelerated design practice, and mentor designers. The role also partners with Product, Engineering, and Data leadership to drive research, design systems, accessibility, and post-launch analysis.

• Build functional, interactive prototypes quickly to validate concepts with real users and stakeholders
• Own the MapMy design system and component library, raising consistency and quality across the product suite
• Drive the research agenda in partnership with Product — leading interviews, usability tests, and competitive analysis to ground decisions in real user needs
• Partner with Product, Engineering, and Data leadership to align design strategy with business goals
• Mentor mid-level and junior designers, lead design reviews, and raise the craft bar across the team
• Define design success metrics and lead post-launch analysis using A/B results, funnel data, and qualitative feedback
• Deliver polished design specs, redlines, and asset handoffs — supplemented with interactive prototypes when they tell the story better
• Set the visual, interaction, and motion standards for MapMy, ensuring all work meets WCAG accessibility guidelines

Requirements:

• 7+ years shipping consumer-facing mobile or web products, with a portfolio demonstrating end-to-end design leadership from problem framing through shipped outcomes

• Strong communicator who can articulate design rationale and tradeoffs to executive and cross-functional audiences
• Mastery of typography, color, layout, and interaction design, with experience building or scaling design systems
• Ability to build functional prototypes using AI code-generation tools — you can get a working demo in front of users on your own
• Sets direction in ambiguity, defaults to showing over telling, and brings conviction and taste to what gets built
• Curious, experimental, and energized by new tools — low ego, high standards
• Background in fitness, health, or GPS/mapping
• familiarity with motion design tools
• working knowledge of HTML/CSS/JS
• experience with advanced research methods and data-informed design practices
