Product Designer

AppLovin makes technologies that help businesses of every size connect to their ideal customers. The company provides end-to-end software and AI solutions for businesses to reach, monetize and grow their global audiences. To deliver on this mission, our global team is composed of team members with life experiences, backgrounds, and perspectives that mirror our developers and customers around the world. At AppLovin, we are intentional about the team and culture we are building, seeking candidates who are outstanding in their own right and also demonstrate their support of others.

Fortune recognizes AppLovin as one of the Best Workplaces in the Bay Area, and the company has been a Certified Great Place to Work for the last four years (2021-2024).

We are looking for a Senior Product Designer who can seamlessly integrate into an established Product design team. This role requires someone who can take ownership of 0-to-1 initiatives, moving confidently from early ideation and problem framing to delivering polished, production-ready visual work.

The ideal candidate combines strong conceptual thinking with high visual execution quality. They should be able to understand complex problems, propose mature and realistic solutions, and translate user-centered stories into clear, intuitive, and visually compelling product experiences.

This person must be highly collaborative, comfortable working with distributed teams, and able to partner effectively with PMs, engineers, and cross-functional stakeholders. We are looking for strong designers—talented, proactive, and thoughtful—who bring expertise without ego and thrive within team dynamics.

Key Responsibilities

• Approach complex problems with structured thinking, proposing mature and realistic solutions with strong user-centric reasoning.
• Collaborate daily with the Principal Designer, Senior Designer, PMs, engineers, and global stakeholders.
• Document processes, reasoning, and design decisions clearly.

• Relevant examples of similar product environments:
• Uber for Drivers
• DoorDash Merchant / Storefront
• Shopify Admin
• Stripe Dashboard
• Instacart Shopper App
• Ability to create solutions that balance logical complexity with smooth user experience.
• Core Competencies
