About Quizlet :

At Quizlet, our mission is to help every learner achieve their outcomes in the most effective and delightful way. Our $1B+ learning platform serves tens of millions of students every month,  including two-thirds of U.S. high schoolers and half of U.S. college students, powering over 2 billion learning interactions monthly.

We blend cognitive science with machine learning to personalize and enhance the learning experience for students, professionals, and lifelong learners alike. We’re energized by the potential to power more learners through multiple approaches and various tools.

Let’s Build the Future of Learning

Join us to design and deliver AI-powered learning tools that scale across the world and unlock human potential.

About the Team :

The Design organization at Quizlet is passionate about creating high-quality experiences that help people learn, study, and achieve their goals. Our team includes product designers, user researchers, and content designers.

The Growth team is responsible for bringing new users to Quizlet and helping them reach that “aha moment” so that they’ll stay and study. Recent examples of Growth initiatives include redesigning the new user experience (sign-up and onboarding), optimizing landing pages to encourage users to study, and tailoring parts of the user experience for international markets.

About the Role :

This is a “player-coach” role that requires hands-on design work while also directing the work of one to two other designers on the Growth team. You will be responsible for setting the overall design strategy and overseeing the design execution for the team. If successful, there will be an opportunity to grow from a “player-coach” role into a full-time design manager role within 12-18 months as the Growth team scales.

We’re happy to share that this is an onsite position at our San Francisco office. To help foster team collaboration, we require that employees be in the office at a minimum of three days a week : Monday, Wednesday, and Thursday and as needed by your manager or the company. We believe that this working environment facilitates increased work efficiency, team partnership, and supports growth as an employee and organization.

In this role, you will :

• Lead design strategy and execution for our Growth team
• Work on end-to-end product design, including UX, UI, interaction, and visual design for Quizlet’s apps (mobile native and web)
• Use quantitative and qualitative insights to inform your designs, iterate rapidly, and optimize experiences
• Use presentation and storytelling skills to get feedback, explain your designs, and get people excited about them
• Push yourself and the team to raise the design bar at Quizlet through a culture of curiosity, feedback, and open communication
