Product Designer II

What you’ll do

• Design product experiences—systematically, interactively, and visually—with a high bar for craft and consistency across the Pinterest product ecosystem.
• Partner with Design Innovation teammates and cross-functional partners to evolve our product design language and bring it to life in key product surfaces and features.
• Explore and prototype new interaction patterns and end-to-end flows that make Pinterest feel more modern, memorable, and uniquely “Pinterest.”
• Use AI tools to accelerate parts of your workflow—from early concept exploration and competitive/visual research to generating variations, content, and structured design artifacts—while validating outputs for quality, alignment with our brand, and user needs.
• Collaborate closely with engineering, product management, and research to develop impactful, user-centric, and data-informed solutions; work with engineers throughout implementation to ensure high-quality execution.
• Incorporate insights from qualitative and quantitative research, experiments, and marketplace/AI trends to refine design directions and identify new opportunities for innovation.
• Contribute to design reviews and critique, helping to uphold and inspire a high level of design execution and inclusive, accessible experiences across the team.

What we’re looking for

• Experience designing for consumer products, with strong visual and interaction design skills demonstrated in a portfolio of shipped or in-progress work.
• Ability to design within and extend a design system, balancing consistency with thoughtful innovation across surfaces and platforms.
• Demonstrated experience using AI tools (such as LLMs or design/creative AI tools) to augment your design workflow—for example, to explore concepts, structure information, or generate and refine content—paired with a clear approach to validating accuracy, quality, and brand alignment.
• Strong product thinking and systems mindset: you can connect craft decisions to user outcomes, product strategy, and measurable impact.
• Great communication and storytelling skills, with the ability to clearly articulate design decisions, tradeoffs, and how AI fits into your process to cross-functional partners at different levels.
• High attention to detail and a sense of ownership over the quality and cohesion of the product experience, including accessibility and inclusive design considerations.
• Collaborative, low-ego working style with a growth mindset; you’re excited to learn, give and receive feedback, and contribute to a positive, inclusive team culture.
• Bachelor’s degree in design, a related field or equivalent experience.
