Grammarly's mission is to improve lives by improving communication.
Role
Who you are
- Extensive experience designing complex, scalable desktop products (productivity tools or similar); mobile design is not a primary focus for this role
- A genuine interest in AI technology, both conceptually and in practical workflows (reading, writing, translating) and are actively experimenting with AI-driven prototyping
- A strong, user-centered design portfolio demonstrating the ability to transform insights into meaningful product solutions for real-world business use cases
- Experience working with metrics and data-driven decision-making
- Passion for language, writing, and human communication
- Experience building, mentoring, or shaping design teams is a plus
- Has a demonstrated ability to work independently with minimal guidance, proactively manages tasks and priorities across multiple projects, analyzes and executes work efficiently, collaborates effectively with cross-functional teams, and thrives in fast-paced, results-driven environments
- Embodies our EAGER values—is ethical, adaptable, gritty, empathetic, and remarkable
- Is inspired by our MOVE principles: move fast and learn faster; obsess about creating customer value; value impact over activity; and embrace healthy disagreement rooted in trust
What the job involves
- To build on our success and reach even more users worldwide, we are searching for an innovative and highly skilled Staff Product Designer
- You will join our growing Agents function, crafting experiences that leverage the next generation of AI-powered Agents
- Your work will impact millions each day and redefine how people write, learn, and communicate
- Design next-generation Agent experiences: Bring new AI-powered Agent concepts to life, from ideation through launch, helping users communicate with greater clarity and confidence
- Collaborate across disciplines and geographies: Work closely with engineering teams in Europe and partner with designers in the US to refine user interactions and ensure cohesive performance across our platform
- Shape design strategy: Influence product direction by contributing user insights, prototyping new ideas, and developing a long-term design vision for the Agents roadmap
- Lead, mentor, and inspire: Elevate design standards through thoughtful feedback, design critique, and mentorship of less experienced team members
- Drive rapid iteration: Work side-by-side with company leadership and founders to quickly iterate, test, and learn in a fast-paced, build-focused environment
Our take
From professional writing to everyday correspondence, effective communication is critical. Grammarly is an AI-powered writing assistant that helps people write clearly and without mistakes, checking spelling, grammar, and other potential pitfalls.
Grammarly was originally launched as a subscription service for students, although the platform has moved into the mainstream in the last decade. It went freemium in 2015 and now works across more than 500,000 applications and websites including email clients, enterprise software, and word processors. Paid tiers give users more tools beyond grammar and spelling checks to include things like word choice, sentence rewrites, tone adjustments, fluency, and formality level.
The company has been profitable since the beginning and now has a valuation of more than $13 billion, placing it among the 10 most valuable startups in the US. The AI writing assistant space is heating up, and Grammarly is hoping to defend its positions against offerings including Scalenut, Ginger and Microsoft's Editor by the release of its SDK, making it far easier to integrate Grammarly into other applications. So far this has been used in over 4,000 products and earned excellent ratings and increased user numbers of Grammarly's service.
