[Hiring] Staff Product Designer @Squarespace

Role Description

We're looking for a Staff Product Designer to own the end-to-end commercial experience across cart, checkout, cross-sell, and pricing pages. This is a high-leverage, high-visibility role at the intersection of monetization strategy and product craft — translating pricing, packaging, and bundling goals into scalable, intuitive user experiences that work across Squarespace's full product portfolio. This is a Player–Coach individual contributor role at the Staff level.

You’ll Get To…

• Own the Commercial Product Design Surface: Lead design across plan selection, cart merchandising, and cross-sell — creating cohesive, intentional experiences across the full commercial ecosystem rather than isolated flows.
• Translate Monetization Strategy into Scalable UX: Work closely with Commercial Strategy to translate pricing, packaging, bundling, discounting, and messaging requirements into flexible, reusable design patterns that hold up across products and offers.
• Design Cross-Sell and Merchandising Systems: Develop cross-sell placements, supporting assets, and interaction models tied to targeting strategy — designing for flexibility so that what works for one product line can scale across others.
• Partner Across Product, Engineering, and RevSys: Collaborate closely with product and engineering leaders on customer-facing purchase and conversion flows, and work with RevSys counterparts where commercial product experiences depend on shared systems or implementation constraints.
• Connect Frontsite to Downstream Conversion: Extend design thinking across Frontsite-connected journeys so that discovery and downstream conversion feel intentional and connected — not like separate experiences owned by separate teams.
• Partner with Platform and Data Science on Targeting and Experimentation: Work alongside Platform and Data Science teams when targeting logic or experimentation affects the user experience, ensuring that personalization and testing are designed with the customer journey in mind.
• Establish Design Consistency Across Commercial Growth: Help raise the design bar across the newly unified Commercial Growth organization — establishing patterns, principles, and standards that create coherence across a complex, multi-surface ecosystem.
• Mentor and Elevate Craft: Serve as a craft mentor across Commercial Growth design as we expand — giving sharp, actionable feedback, pairing with designers on complex systems problems, and raising the quality bar for both systems thinking and visual and interaction design.

Qualifications

• 10+ years of experience in product design at a digital product company, including time operating at a Staff or equivalent level.
• A portfolio demonstrating complex, systems-level work — ideally across commerce, checkout, pricing, or monetization surfaces — with clear impact on user and business outcomes.
• Experience leading cross-functional workstreams from ambiguity to shipped product, including setting direction, defining milestones, and aligning stakeholders across product, engineering, and data teams.
• A track record of translating business and monetization requirements — pricing, packaging, discounting, merchandising — into scalable, intuitive UX patterns that work across a broad product portfolio.
• Strong systems thinking: you architect experiences that feel simple by mapping data models, flows, and dependencies across multiple product areas.
• High-agency operator who can create momentum without fully defined requirements — you impose structure on ambiguous problems by framing the space, surfacing constraints, and clarifying goals for others.
• Experience designing for or alongside experimentation and targeting systems, with an understanding of how personalization and A/B logic affect the user experience.
• Exceptional communication and storytelling skills — you can zoom from high-level strategy to concrete UX decisions with clarity, and you're comfortable representing design rationale to senior leadership and cross-functional stakeholders.
• You lead by example, setting a craft and systems bar that other designers actively look to emulate, and you enjoy coaching designers at different levels.
• Experience working on Frontsite or marketing-site-connected journeys, with an understanding of how discovery and conversion relate across the funnel, is a strong plus.

Benefits

• A choice between medical plans with an option for 100% covered premiums including medical, dental, and vision.
• Supplemental Life and Disability Insurance plans.
• Fertility and adoption benefits.
• Headspace mindfulness app subscription.
• Global Employee Assistance Program.
