[Hiring] Staff Product Designer @Linktree

Role Description

Linktree is evolving from a link-in-bio tool to the place creators and businesses run everything — a control center that helps them understand what's working across platforms and decide what to do next. Linktree's users live on their phones, and native mobile is where a huge amount of that value gets delivered.

We're raising our mobile bar across the whole product, and we need a Staff designer to lead that craft.

This is our mobile craft anchor. Every experience pillar owns its own mobile and web surfaces — your job is to be the designer who sets and raises the native bar across all of them.

• Set and continually raise the bar for native iOS and Android across the entire product.
• Own the mobile patterns and craft standards that every pillar builds on.
• Go deep where native wins — capture, notifications, on-the-go coaching, gestures, performance, and motion.
• Run cross-pillar mobile review so the experience stays coherent as teams ship fast.
• Partner with Design Systems + Engineering to make mobile patterns real in code, and prototype your own ideas to production fidelity.
• Lead through influence — lifting the mobile craft of designers across every pillar.

Qualifications

• An obsession with deep native mobile craft — fluency with iOS and Android conventions, gestures, motion, and performance-aware design.
• Significant time shipping consumer mobile products at scale, across diverse user bases where you've learned to balance sophistication with everyday usability — with a portfolio that reflects it.
• Staff-level scope: you set direction and raise the bar around you, not just ship your own screens.
• Low ego, high collaboration — your craft serves the product.
• Systems thinking — you design patterns that scale across surfaces and teams.
• Influence without authority — you make other teams better without managing them.
• AI as part of how you work (a baseline for us), with the depth to push our practice forward.
• Sharp product judgment; empathy for creators and the creator economy is a plus.

Requirements

• Mobile is your depth, and we want someone genuinely great at it.
• The strongest mobile designers are strong product designers first — so we're looking for range too: the judgment to frame problems, the taste to know what's worth building, and the ability to work beyond native when the problem calls for it.

Benefits

• Be part of a rapidly growing company that's shaping the future of how people connect online.
• Contribute to a product that impacts millions of users worldwide, driving innovation in digital experiences.
• Enjoy a collaborative, inclusive, and creative work environment that values diversity and fosters professional growth.
• Benefit from a competitive compensation package, flexible work arrangements, and a commitment to work-life balance.
• Our cash compensation amount for this role is targeted at $200,000-$230,000 in the San Francisco Bay or Los Angeles area.
• Generous time off for vacation, holidays, parental leave, volunteer time, and other categories.
• Employee stock option program - we want each and every employee to share in the company’s success.
