Job Description

At System1, we’re a company of builders. Our portfolio of digital products reach millions of users every day. The System1 Emerging Products division is where the next generation of those products begins : a small, fast-moving team exploring new ideas, building MVPs, and testing them in the wild.

We’re looking for a Lead Product Designer to help shape these brand-new products from the ground up. You’ll play a hands-on role in discovery, research, design, and iteration, and be a key voice in how we bring new ideas to life across web and mobile.

This position is an onsite role requiring you to work in our headquarters located at 4235 Redwood Ave. Los Angeles, CA 90066.

What You'll Do :

• Discover and define new product opportunities through user research, data insights, and experimentation.
• Turn early-stage concepts into intuitive experiences
• Create user journeys, wireframes, prototypes, and polished UIs that work across web and mobile.
• Develop the brand identity and visual language for new products.
• Bring a strong design voice to product discussions; influence what we build and how it works, not just how it looks.
• Collaborate closely with PMs, Engineers, and other Designers to ensure ideas translate into great shipped experiences.
• Push forward System1’s design systems and visual language as our product portfolio evolves.
• Experiment with AI-powered tools and workflows to make design faster, smarter, and more exploratory, and help the team adopt the best of what’s emerging.
