Remote job description

Discord is your place to talk. Whether you're part of a school club, gaming group, worldwide art community, or just a handful of friends that want to spend time together, millions of people use Discord every day to create connections, hang out, and talk.

As a product designer, you'll be involved with the full product development process from end-to-end, from brainstorming to launch. You'll use a balance of product, interaction, and visual design skills within the area of Discord that you will end up building. If you're interested in joining a passionate team of designers that are designing features that will be used by millions of people across the world, come help us do that.

What you'll be doing

  • You will report to our growing Product Design team within the Engineering, Product, Analytics and Design (EPAD) organization.
  • Embed within a product squad and partner with engineers, product managers and data scientists to oversee the user experience of a product from concept to launch - and then continue to improve it after it releases.
  • Mix your visual, UX, and interaction design skills to design valuable features for our users.
  • Understand our goals and connect them with design decisions that can be articulated in individual or group settings.
  • Foster a culture of design.

What you should have

  • Minimum of 4 years experience designing and shipping a web/app product for a variety of devices and platforms.
  • Product thinking and vision. You're more concerned with the "why" than the "how".

  • A high level of craft.
  • Experience with Figma or Sketch.

Bonus Points

  • Experience or willingness to mentor other designers.

About Us

Discord is a voice, video and text app that helps friends and communities come together to hang out and explore their interests - from artists and activists, to study groups, sneakerheads, plant parents, and more. With 150 million monthly users across 19 million active communities, called servers, Discord has grown to become one of the most popular communications services in the world. Discord was built without selling ads or user data and instead, offers a premium subscription called Nitro that gives users special perks like higher quality streams and fun customizations.

We're working toward an inclusive world where no one feels like an outsider, where genuine human connection is a click, text chat, or voice call away. A place where everyone can find belonging. Challenging? Heck yes. Rewarding? Double heck yes. It's a mission that gives us the chance to positively impact millions of people all over the world. So if this strikes a chord with you, come build belonging with us!
