We’re looking for a Senior Product Designer II to join our User Lifecycle team, focused on onboarding, activation, and habit-building experiences that drive long-term retention. You’ll lead end-to-end design within a cross-functional pod, partnering closely with Product, Engineering, Data, and Research.

This role is ideal for a thoughtful systems thinker and craft-driven designer who thrives in strong partnerships, operates with low ego, and believes the best outcomes come from shared ownership. You combine strategic clarity, visual excellence, and data-informed decision-making to create modern, meaningful experiences that help athletes build lasting fitness habits.

We follow a flexible hybrid model that generally translates to more than half your time on-site in our San Francisco office— three days per week.

What You’ll Do:

• Lead end-to-end product design for onboarding, activation, and habit-building journeys

• Collaborate with cross-functional partners to define opportunities, shape solutions, and deliver high-quality, user-centered experiences.

• Use data (quantitative and qualitative) and user insights to inform design decisions and prioritize features

• Own visual design, interaction, and prototyping to create polished, modern, and engaging user experiences

• Drive experimentation and iteration through rapid prototyping and validation

• Contribute to lifecycle strategy and roadmap discussions with a retention and growth mindset

• Present clear design rationale to stakeholders and leadership, inviting feedback and alignment

• Advocate for inclusive and accessible design, particularly for underserved or expansion audiences

• Support the modernization of our product’s design language and interaction patterns

What You’ll Bring To The Team:

• 5+ years of experience in product design, preferably in consumer or fitness-related digital products, with a strong background or interest in gamification

• Strong portfolio demonstrating expertise in visual design, interaction, and end-to-end user experience, including designing for social or community-based products

• Experience designing journeys that increase activation, retention, and long-term engagement

• A history of earning trust and driving impact through strong cross-functional partnerships and a team-first approach.

• Skilled at using data (both quantitative and qualitative) to inform design decisions and measure impact

• Proficient with design and prototyping tools such as Figma, FigJam, and Play; motion design experience or willingness to learn

• Comfortable with ambiguity and rapid iteration, showing a bias toward action and experimentation

• Clear, compelling communication skills and the ability to influence through storytelling

• Passion for inclusive design and building products that empower a global community of athletes
