Senior Product Designer

At HackerRank, we are on a mission to change the world to value skills over pedigree. We are a high-performing, mission-driven team that truly, madly, deeply cares about what we do. We don’t see velocity and quality as tradeoffs - both matter. If you take pride in high-impact work and thrive in a driven team, HackerRank is where you belong.

About The Team

Designers at HackerRank are members of a strong and growing creative group, while also collaborating closely with their peers in Product and Engineering within their dedicated team. This position is embedded within the HackerRank Community team, responsible for crafting experiences that engage and grow our community of over 26 million developers. Here, you’ll have the opportunity to flex your consumer-oriented design skills to create products that developers love and rely on, while working closely with peers focused on B2B products to identify opportunities to strengthen the developer experience no matter where they are interacting with HackerRank.

About The Role

You’ll collaborate closely with product managers, analysts, and engineers, and own design throughout the product development lifecycle from ideation and conceptualization all the way through interaction and visual design.

At HackerRank, we believe the future is human plus AI. You’ll blend a solid grasp of fundamental UI paradigms with innovative AI-powered capabilities. This role specifically focuses on the HackerRank Community, helping developers showcase their skills, find jobs that resonate, and prepare for the interview process.

• Stay current on best-in-class developer experiences.
• Work independently and strategically to identify problems worth solving and design solutions that users love.

• Manage competing priorities and act on decisions in the face of ambiguity.
• Contribute to the overall design and product culture at HackerRank.

You Will Thrive In This Role If

• With a rich portfolio and years of experience, you know what quality looks like and how to achieve it.
• You’ve worked on consumer or prosumer products and understand how a small micro-interaction or personalized moment can drive deeper engagement and growth.
• Every detail matters, and you aren’t shy to share and help lift the bar for everyone.

What You Bring

• A portfolio demonstrating excellent visual, UI, and interactive skills
• At least 3 years working on high-growth consumer or prosumer products
