Discord has a highly engaged community of millions of daily active users who use the platform
for many different reasons, but there’s one thing that nearly everyone does: play video
games. Discord plays a uniquely important role in the future of gaming, and we are focused on
making it easier and more fun for people to hang out before, during, and after playing
games.We're looking for a Product Designer to join Growth at Discord and help shape how
people find Discord, get set up, and stay connected over time.
Growth sits at the front door of our consumer org. We're responsible for how Discord shows
up in the world — how new people discover us, how they land and get started, and how existing
users stay close to the conversations and communities they care about. It's a broad,
fast-moving surface area, and design plays a central role in making each of those moments feel
unmistakably like Discord.
This role spans the full breadth of what Growth owns:

Notifications — helping users stay connected to what they care about, even when they're
away. We're making notifications more intelligent, trusted, and effective: reaching people
at the right moments, coordinating delivery thoughtfully, and giving users real control over
their experience.
Off-platform — how Discord shows up beyond the app itself, across embeds, links, invites, web
pages, and text messages. These are often someone's first impression of Discord, and
there's a lot of room to make them better.
Onboarding — rethinking how new users arrive, understand what Discord is, and find their
footing in those first few minutes.
GSEO — a growing effort to build the web experiences that help new people discover Discord
through search in the first place.

You won't own all of this at once, but you'll work across it — and you'll help us
shape how these pieces fit together into one coherent growth experience rather than a set of
disconnected products.
What You'll Be Doing

Own end-to-end initiatives across Growth — a new notification type, an onboarding flow, an
off-platform surface like invites or embeds, or a web experience built to bring new users in
— designing across all platforms (iOS, Android, Desktop, Web)
Design with high craft and velocity — creating production-ready specs and high-fidelity
prototypes while knowing when to ship vs. polish
Influence scope and strategy in partnership with your PM, engineering lead, and
cross-functional teammates, balancing growth velocity with user value
Use data and research to inform decisions, partnering with research and data science teams to
validate designs and understand user behavior
Think in systems — considering how discovery, onboarding, off-platform touchpoints, and
re-engagement work together to create one cohesive experience
Collaborate and communicate effectively — sharing work early and often, telling compelling
stories about your design rationale, and building relationships across teams
Drive projects autonomously — managing your own time and deliverables while knowing when to
escalate blockers

What you should have

3+ years of product design experience designing consumer-facing digital products — though
we're open to strong candidates with 2+ years who demonstrate exceptional craft and
potential.
Strong visual design foundation with demonstrated aesthetic taste. You have a high level of
skill crafting beautiful interfaces and an eye for creating delight in every product experience
— typography, color, hierarchy, and composition are second nature to you. You're
comfortable working with design systems.
Solid interaction design skills — you create intuitive flows, understand information
architecture, and can design for complex, multi-step experiences. You're comfortable
designing systems, not just screens.
High proficiency with Figma and prototyping tools (Protopie, Framer, Principle, etc.) — you
use prototypes to communicate your vision, test concepts, and build alignment with
stakeholders.
Experience shipping products collaboratively in cross-functional teams with engineering,
product management, research, and data science.
Ownership mindset with a bias toward action — you proactively drive projects and decisions
forward. You help guide product vision through design explorations, documentation, and
presentations.

Bonus Points:

Personal use of Discord and passion for gaming or community platforms
Experience designing growth, onboarding, acquisition, or lifecycle products
Understanding of how products reach and grow users across surfaces — notifications,
messaging, web, SEO, or shareable/viral loops
Familiarity with experimentation frameworks and data-driven iteration
