Responsibilities

  • Mentor and develop designers. You invest in the people around you. You support designers at all levels through regular 1:1s, career conversations, and honest, actionable feedback. You help them see around corners, develop their craft, and grow their confidence - not just their output.

Requirements

  • We would love to have you on our team if you have:
  • 8+ years of design experience, with at least 4 years operating as a high-influence individual contributor at a staff or principal level; setting direction and raising quality without relying on formal authority.
  • A portfolio that demonstrates exceptional UI craft alongside systems thinking: cohesive experiences at scale, not just individual screens for world class companies.
  • The ability to hold and defend a strong aesthetic point of view while remaining genuinely open to input and collaboration.
  • Deep fluency with mobile design: interaction patterns, platform conventions, motion, and the nuanced decisions that make an app feel alive or flat.
  • Strong curatorial instincts across imagery, motion, and visual storytelling, with an understanding of how these elements shape trust, emotion, and brand in a health and fitness context.
  • Excellent communication skills: you can make the invisible visible, explaining why a decision is right, what's missing in a design, or where a system is breaking down.
  • A pattern of proactive cross-functional collaboration: you build relationships and seek out connections rather than waitin
