About Quizlet:

Inspired by our belief that anyone can learn anything and powered by our own curiosity, we build the smartest tools we can imagine to help students learn.  

Quizlet is the popular, global learning platform and app that millions of students, teachers and everyday people use to study any subject imaginable for school, work or as part of their personal interests -- including two-thirds of high school students and half of all college students in the US. Combining cognitive science and machine learning, Quizlet guides students through adaptive study activities to confidently reach their learning goals. We’re on track to become the undisputed leader in user-generated learning content and engagement, at the scale of YouTube.  

Valued at $1 billion, Quizlet has raised over $60 million in venture capital from investors including Icon Ventures, Union Square Ventures, General Atlantic, Costanoa Ventures, Owl Ventures, and Altos Ventures.  

To serve our global community of learners, our teams tackle lofty technical challenges and design for use cases across cultures and languages. We work hard, act like owners, and collaborate every chance we get. We’re energized by the potential to power more learners through multiple approaches and various tools.


About the Team:

The Design team at Quizlet is passionate about creating high-quality experiences that help people learn, study, and achieve their goals. Our team includes product designers, motion designers, user researchers, and content designers. 

About the Role:

As a Staff Product Designer on our Core Native team, you'll lead the strategy and execution on our core native app study experiences - deeply understanding student needs, shaping product strategy, and designing rich, interactive experiences for the 60M+ users who use Quizlet every month.

You'll drive discovery in complex problem spaces, establish frameworks for native design excellence, and foster strong partnerships across Product and Engineering teams to ensure that these experiences are useful, usable, and delightful. 

This is a hybrid role based out of our San Francisco office.

In this role, you will:

  • Lead the discovery and solution of highly ambiguous problem spaces within our native experiences
  • Drive end-to-end product design from strategy to execution across our iOS and Android apps
  • Use quantitative and qualitative insights to inform your designs, iterate rapidly, and optimize experiences
  • Champion our design system's evolution and adoption across native platforms
  • Mentor designers and cross-functional partners on native design patterns and best practices
  • Build strong relationships with Product and Engineering to influence roadmap and technical decisions
  • Create extensible user insights through design processes and cross-functional collaboration
  • Set and uphold quality standards for interaction, visual, and motion design across mobile experiences
  • Use presentation and storytelling skills to get feedback, explain your designs, and get people excited about them
  • Push yourself and the team to raise the design bar at Quizlet through a culture of curiosity, feedback, and open communication

What you bring to the table:

  • 8+ years of experience designing consumer applications with deep expertise in native mobile design
  • Proven track record of leading complex, ambiguous projects from discovery to delivery
  • Expert-level craft in UI, interaction design, and prototyping for native apps
  • Strong analytical skills with experience using data to inform design decisions
  • Very effective communication skills (oral, written, and visual)
  • Experience mentoring others and elevating team-wide design quality
  • Experience building and scaling design systems across platforms
  • Track record of identifying and driving process improvements
  • Ability to balance user needs with business objectives
  • Strong proactive hustle
  • A humble attitude and a growth mindset
  • Excitement about the impact your work could have on the lives of students around the world

Bonus points if you have:

  • Experience with learning products or educational technology
  • Proficiency in motion design and animation
  • Knowledge of native app development
  • Background in learning science or pedagogy
  • Experience with design systems governance and scaling
