RESPONSIBILITIES: - Lead the end-to-end design of new connected member experiences, from early discovery and concept development through production-ready designs. - Define interaction principles, navigation models, information architecture, and scalable UX patterns that create intuitive and consistent experiences across the WHOOP ecosystem. - Design cohesive member journeys across multiple touchpoints, translating complex product capabilities and information into clear, intuitive interactions that prioritize utility and ease of use. - Partner closely with Product, Engineering, Research, Design Systems, and Platform teams to navigate constraints, make thoughtful tradeoffs, and bring high-quality experiences to market. - Prototype and test interaction models, workflows, and product concepts to validate assumptions, accelerate decision-making, and continuously refine the member experience. - Help shape the long-term UX vision for emerging WHOOP products, championing simplicity and contributing to the continued evolution of WHOOP design principles. QUALIFICATIONS: - 7+ years of product design experience, with a portfolio demonstrating end-to-end ownership of high-quality consumer product experiences. - Exceptional UX and interaction design skills, with demonstrated ability to simplify complex problems and workflows into intuitive, member-centered experiences. - Strong systems thinking, including experience developing information architecture, navigation models, reusable interaction patterns, or design frameworks. - Experience designing highly crafted mobile experiences and working across multiple touchpoints, platforms, form factors, or interaction paradigms. - High proficiency in Figma and prototyping, with the ability to use prototypes to explore ideas, communicate interaction models, and accelerate product decisions. - Strong communication and storytelling skills, with demonstrated success partnering with Product, Engineering, Research, and other cross-functional teams to influence product direction and bring complex experiences to market. - Passion for health, fitness, and building products that empower people to better understand and improve their daily lives. - Strong commitment to embracing and leveraging AI tools in day-to-day tasks, ensuring AI-assisted work aligns with the same high-quality standards as personal contributions.
