Product Designer, Growth

The role

This role sits within the Growth team, which owns how people first encounter Discord, get started, and keep returning. The designer shapes multiple connected surfaces so that acquisition and retention feel like one unified experience, working across mobile, desktop, and web.

What you would do

• Lead full-cycle initiatives such as a new alert format, a setup flow, an invite or embed surface, or a discovery-oriented web page
• Produce production-ready specifications and polished prototypes, judging when to launch versus refine further
• Shape direction alongside a product manager, engineering lead, and other partners while weighing growth pace against user benefit
• Ground decisions in research and analytics by working with specialists to test designs and read user behavior
• Think across the whole journey so that discovery, first-run setup, shared links, and re-engagement fit together coherently
• Share work frequently, explain design reasoning persuasively, and build trust with colleagues across functions
• Manage your own schedule and deliverables independently, raising obstacles to leadership when needed

What they asked for

• At least three years designing consumer-facing digital products, or two years with exceptional craft and clear potential
• Strong visual sensibility with a refined eye for typography, color, hierarchy, and layout
• Solid interaction design ability, including building clear multi-step flows and sound information architecture
• Comfortable designing reusable systems and components, not only individual screens
• Advanced fluency in Figma and prototyping tools to communicate concepts and gain stakeholder buy-in
• Track record of collaborating on shipped products with engineering, product management, research, and data teams
• Proactive, action-oriented mindset that drives decisions forward and guides vision through explorations and presentations

Nice to have

• Genuine enthusiasm for Discord and for gaming or community-driven platforms
• Prior work on growth, onboarding, acquisition, or lifecycle products
• Knowledge of how products reach users through notifications, messaging, web presence, search, or sharing loops
• Hands-on experience with testing frameworks and iterating based on measured results
