• Collaborate with other teams to turn big ideas into simple, beautiful, and easy to use products
• Develop design concepts that put Pinterest users first, while helping us meet our business goals

What We’re Looking For

• 5+ years of experience
• Bachelor’s degree in design, a related field or equivalent experience
• Proven track record envisioning, building, and iterating on digital products in close partnership with product management and engineering

• Multidisciplinary designer with demonstrated expertise to integrate visual, interaction, and product design, creating cohesive and impactful user experiences
• Great communication skills with the ability to clearly present and articulate your design decisions and the problems they’re solving
• Attention to detail and a sense of pride and ownership over the quality of the product
• Ability to work within and extend a design system. Experience working in design systems and/or product redesigns is a plus

• High level of self-awareness with a growth mindset
