What the job involves
- Now we’re on the lookout for a Senior Product Designer to elevate our team and help design the future of dating. This is a contract/temporary position to start, but for the right person it could turn into a full-time role
- Our Product team, while small, is fiercely dedicated to developing the best dating experience for relationship-seekers
- We thrive on an agile approach, which enables us to quickly absorb learnings and make data-driven decisions. As a key member of our team, you will infuse your product design expertise throughout the development cycle — from discovery to post-launch iteration — and ensure user needs remain central to our process
- Work with product managers to break down complex, sometimes ambiguous problems into concrete concepts and successful solutions
- Collaborate closely with our product managers and content designer, as well as engineers and our customer experience team, to take features from start to finish — and ensure solutions drive desired UX, business, and technical outcomes
- Continue to build and maintain our atomic design system
- Join bi-weekly critique sessions with our small design team
Our take
Dating apps remain as popular as ever, with a user base of over 320 million users. With a plethora of apps to choose from, each one has its own approach to dating and relationships.
Coffee Meets Bagel is a dating app that promises more serious connections. The app distinguishes itself from competitors like Bumble and Tinder by limiting the number of matches it offers during a 24-hour window.
Younger consumers are frequently looking for new ways to connect online, which gives new apps hope in a market forecasted to have a volume of almost $9 billion by 2028. However, the landscape can change quickly and Coffee Meets Bagel will always be grappling for position against other new entrants and big players, such as Bumble, Happn, The League, and Hinge.
