We're hiring a Product Designer to help design the future of Slack. Designers here work across every stage of product development, from creating the experience of new features, to prototyping and finding creative solutions, to the craft and finish of every detail in the product. On our team, we appreciate designers who think deeply, speak clearly, work collaboratively, and have a solid collection of animated GIFs.
Slack has a positive, diverse, and supportive culture — we look for people who are curious, inventive, and work to be a little better every single day. If this sounds like a good fit for you, please send us a nice hello, plus links to your work and experience.

- Improve your team’s work by asking for and offering feedback from other product designers and cross-functional teammates.

- An outstanding portfolio, showcasing a foundation in typography, interaction, and visual design.
