产品设计负责人，市场平台
Lead Product Designer, Marketplace
我们正在构建全球领先的AI驱动的、一站式数字业务平台。我们让创作者、教练、教育者和企业能够将他们的受众聚集在一起，进行互动讨论、直播、活动、聊天、课程和支付——所有内容都在一个地方，全部以他们自己的品牌呈现。
我们是一家完全远程的公司，目前有大约270名（仍在增长）来自全球30多个国家的团队成员。我们寻找世界各地的优秀人才，让他们发挥出人生中最好的工作，并在他们自己的生活中产生有意义的影响。我们不追踪工作时间，但对高标准的要求非常严格。我们在不同时区协作，高度异步化，并且喜欢大量记录文档。
每年两次，我们会把整个公司带到世界上的美丽地点进行公司团建。迄今为止，我们已在土耳其、葡萄牙、墨西哥、泰国、哥伦比亚、意大利、爱尔兰等地举办过团建，还有更多地方即将加入！

关于Discover
人们不仅仅在寻找内容。他们在寻找成长、连接和转变——改变他们自我认知和世界观的体验。这就是Circle所处的地方。不是另一个以点击量和消费优化的平台，而是一个围绕成为更好的自己而建立的地方。
Discover是Circle向世界展示自己的界面——创作者被发现、人们找到值得花时间的体验的地方。这是一个涉及社区、课程、活动等的双边市场问题。这也是平台上最真实有趣的设计师挑战之一。
关于该职位
你将作为主设计师负责Discover的全流程：识别机会、设定设计方向，并交付提升Circle发现体验标准的工作。你将与一个由创始人领导的产品团队紧密合作，该团队拥有清晰的愿景和高标准——你将带来精湛的技艺、系统思维以及自下而上的想法，使这一愿景成为现实。
你将加入一个设计团队，这里上下文信息开放共享，所有权明确，有才华的人被信任去完成他们最好的工作。
该职位适合在消费者市场产品方面有丰富经验的设计师——能够大规模地负责发现、排序和参与度；如果你的背景主要是内部工具、CMS平台或增长系统，那么这个职位可能不适合你。

ABOUT DISCOVER
People are looking for more than content. They're looking for growth, connection, and transformation — experiences that change how they see themselves and the world. Circle is where they find that. Not another platform optimizing for clicks and consumption — a place built around becoming something.
Discover is where Circle becomes visible to the world — the surface where creators get found and people find experiences worth their time. It's a two-sided marketplace problem spanning communities, courses, events, and more. And it's one of the most genuinely interesting design challenges on the platform.
ABOUT THE ROLE
You'll own Discover end-to-end as the lead designer: identifying opportunities, setting design direction, and shipping work that raises the bar for how discovery feels at Circle. You'll work closely with a founder-led product team that has strong vision and high standards — and you'll bring the craft, the systems thinking, and the bottom-up ideas that make that vision real.
You'll be joining a design team where context is shared openly, ownership is real, and talented people are trusted to do their best work.
This role is for designers with deep experience in consumer marketplace products — owning discovery, ranking, and engagement at scale; if your background is primarily in internal tools, CMS platforms, or growth systems, this role will not be a fit — please apply to our Core Product https://circle.so/careers/greenhouse--5153629008 role instead.
THE PROBLEM YOU'LL BE SOLVING
Discovery is one of the hardest design problems. You're serving two audiences with opposing needs simultaneously: creators who need visibility, trust signals, and growth; and consumers who need signal through noise, confidence to commit, and experiences that deliver on their promise.
What makes this genuinely novel is AI as the core interaction model — not a filter or a recommendation widget, but the primary way Discover understands intent and surfaces what's worth someone's time. How does an AI-driven experience build trust in a marketplace? How do you make an AI-driven surface feel like a trusted recommendation from someone who knows you, not a ranked list from a system that doesn't? These are real open questions, and the quality of the answers will show up directly in the product.
WHAT YOU'LL BE DOING
- Own Discover's design end-to-end. Identify opportunities, frame problems, set design direction, and ship. You connect dots across the platform — understanding how a community business compound product feeds into what Discover surfaces — and you make that systems understanding visible in every design decision.
- Design AI-driven discovery experiences. The new world UX is conversational and relational. You'll design the interfaces, curation experiences, and trust signals that make AI-driven discovery feel effortless — building the relationship between the platform, creators, and members in ways that feel human, not algorithmic.
- Serve both sides of the market. You understand what makes a marketplace work at a systems level — how creator visibility gets earned, how consumer confidence gets built, how one broken experience erodes trust on both sides. That understanding drives your design decisions, not just your surface-level execution.
- Prototype at speed. You use AI-assisted tools — Cursor, Claude Code, v0, Lovable — because you've already figured out it's how ideas get stress-tested fast. You stay in the problem through to launch, working closely with engineers to close the gap between concept and shipped experience.
- Mentor and elevate. You raise the craft standard on Discover through the quality of your own work and how you develop designers alongside you.
WHAT YOU'LL NEED TO BE SUCCESSFUL
- Strong alignment with our values, find our values on our career page https://circle.so/careers if you haven’t read up on them yet
- You are proficient in English (spoken, written, and reading) at a CEFR Level C2 https://magoosh.com/english-speaking/english-proficiency-levels-a-guide-to-determining-your-level/ / ILR Level 5 https://www.govtilr.org/.
- Marketplace or two-sided platform experience — this is a hard requirement. You've designed for both sides of a market. You know what breaks trust and what builds it. Your portfolio shows you shaped outcomes, not just interfaces.
- 5+ years of product design experience, including shipped 0→1 work, complex multi-user flows, and clear evidence that you drove product direction — not just executed it.
- Experience as the most senior designer on a product area — setting direction, making tradeoffs, and owning outcomes without constant guidance.
- Genuine fluency with AI-assisted prototyping. You build realistic prototypes yourself using tools like Cursor, Claude Code, v0, or Lovable. This is how you think, not just how you produce. You can speak concretely about your process.
- Proficiency in Figma for high-fidelity design and cross-functional collaboration.
- Proactive communication. You share your thinking before you're asked, surface decisions early, give real opinions, and keep your team informed without being prompted. At Circle, communication is how trust gets built and work gets shipped.
- Comfort designing in ambiguity. Discover is still taking shape. You build conviction through iteration, not by waiting for perfect requirements.
