About the role

  • Design and deliver end-to-end user experiences across key product surfaces, from discovery and ideation through to polished, production-ready work.
  • Translate product briefs into clear design direction — balancing user needs, business goals, and technical constraints.
  • Partner closely with product managers, engineers, and data analysts to identify high-impact opportunities that help shape roadmaps.
  • Lead complex design projects independently, driving clarity and alignment across cross-functional stakeholders.
  • Contribute to and uphold Linktree's design system, ensuring consistency and quality across the product.
  • Take part in design reviews, presenting work with clear rationale, and incorporate feedback effectively.
  • Bring a strong point of view on craft, systems thinking, and user-centred design — and share that thinking generously with the broader team.
  • 8+ years of product design experience, including 2+ years operating at a Staff level (existing contractor experience, a plus).
  • A portfolio that demonstrates exceptional craft, critical thinking, and a clear obsession for the end user — with examples of complex, shipped product work across mobile and desktop.
  • Expertise in utilizing modern AI product design and prototyping tools to rapidly create interactive, sharable concepts for feedback and testing.
  • Strong systems-thinking ability: you can zoom into pixel-level detail and zoom out to product wide thinking without losing the thread.
  • Comfortable working in ambiguity in a fast paced environment — you know how to define the problem as well as solve it.
  • Proven track record of influencing stakeholders, bringing cross-functional teams together, and driving alignment through inspiring, effective artifacts.
  • Confident, clear communicator who can articulate design rationale, trade-offs, and strategic thinking to a range of audiences.
  • Experience working within and contributing to product design systems.
  • Familiarity with experimentation and data-informed design (e.g. A/B testing, funnel analysis) is a plus.
