Hiring: Lead Product Designer, Marketplace Company: Circle Location: Wilmington, DE Job Posted Time: 2026-09-03 11:02:44 Employment Type: Remote Target Skills & Keywords : Figma About the job Experience: •5+ years of product design experience, including shipped 0→1 work, complex multi-user flows, and clear evidence that you drove product direction — not just executed it. Required Skills: •You'll be joining a design team where context is shared openly, ownership is real, and talented people are trusted to do their best work. •This role is for designers with deep experience in consumer marketplace products — owning discovery, ranking, and engagement at scale; if your background is primarily in internal tools, CMS platforms, or growth systems, this role will not be a fit — please apply to our •The problem you'll be solving •Discovery is one of the hardest design problems. You're serving two audiences with opposing needs simultaneously: creators who need visibility, trust signals, and growth; and consumers who need signal through noise, confidence to commit, and experiences that deliver on their promise. •Own Discover's design end-to-end. Identify opportunities, frame problems, set design direction, and ship. You connect dots across the platform — understanding how a community business compound product feeds into what Discover surfaces — and you make that systems understanding visible in every design decision. •Design AI-driven discovery experiences. The new world UX is conversational and relational. You'll design the interfaces, curation experiences, and trust signals that make AI-driven discovery feel effortless — building the relationship between the platform, creators, and members in ways that feel human, not algorithmic. •Serve both sides of the market. You understand what makes a marketplace work at a systems level — how creator visibility gets earned, how consumer confidence gets built, how one broken experience erodes trust on both sides. That understanding drives your design decisions, not just your surface-level execution. •Prototype at speed. You use AI-assisted tools — Cursor, Claude Code, v0, Lovable — because you've already figured out it's how ideas get stress-tested fast. You stay in the problem through to launch, working closely with engineers to close the gap between concept and shipped experience. Compensation: •$140,000 - $170,000 / year •Flexible work environment (work from home / hybrid options) •Benchmarked compensation globally, equity in the company with ongoing refresh grants, and 35 days of paid time off each year Interested candidates, please apply directly through the job posting on company's career page or try via AI auto apply on this platform.
