We're currently focused on product modernisation, driving growth and building infrastructure for the next 10 years of community-powered modding.
Our Role
We're looking for a Senior Product Designer who's excited about growth and has a track record of making a real, measurable impact at scale. You'll lead design work across key growth initiatives, shaping experiences that improve acquisition, onboarding, engagement, and long-term retention across both web and app.
You'll work closely with Product, Engineering, and Marketing to spot high-impact opportunities, form clear hypotheses, and design, test, and refine solutions that move both user and business metrics. This is a hands-on, craft-driven role for someone who cares deeply about the details, thinks in systems, and designs for real, working software — not just polished concepts.
The role sits at the intersection of user-centered design, strategy, and problem-solving. You'll use data and research to uncover insights, simplify complex flows, advocate for users, and help teams learn and ship through experimentation and iteration.
Salary:
£50,000 - £60,000
Location:
Remote, but within the UK.
Please note: We are unable to sponsor international visas at this time.
Responsibilities
- Own end-to-end design for growth initiatives across our ecosystem, including desktop and app experiences
- Identify and prioritise opportunities across the full user lifecycle using research, analysis, and product intuition
- Define, design, and iterate on experiments that improve activation, engagement, retention, and long-term value
- Partner with Product, Engineering, Marketing, and Community to shape strategy, define hypotheses, and measure impact
- Turn complex systems and constraints into intuitive, scalable, and accessible experiences
- Move comfortably from low-fidelity exploration to high-fidelity, production-ready designs and interactive prototypes (code-based prototyping is a plus)
- Contribute to and evolve our design systems to support consistency, speed, and scale as the product grows
- Act as a design leader within cross-functional teams by offering thoughtful critique, mentorship, and clear direction
- Engage directly with the modding community to understand creator and user needs, motivations, and pain points, and turn those insights into product decisions
Requirements
- Significant experience in product design, UX/UI, or growth-focused design roles, with increasing ownership and scope
- A strong portfolio that shows user-centered thinking, strategic problem-solving, and measurable product impact
- Experience designing consumer-facing digital products; familiarity with UGC platforms or creator ecosystems is a strong plus
- Proven ability to simplify complex workflows and systems into clear, approachable experiences
- High proficiency with Figma and modern design workflows
- Experience working closely with engineering and product teams in agile, cross-functional environments
- A solid understanding of how design decisions affect metrics, performance, and long-term product health
- Experience designing for both web and desktop
- Comfortable collaborating with engineers and using prototypes (Framer, Lovable, Cursor, Figma, or code) to communicate and validate ideas
- Comfortable navigating ambiguity and will use your initiative to push projects forward
Bonus Skills
- Experience working in revenue, growth acquisition, or conversion focused product areas.
- Familiarity with GitLab for issue tracking and collaboration.
- Knowledge of game modding and familiarity with Nexus Mods.
