Role
Who you are
- 4+ years designing consumer-facing digital products, ideally for social or creator-driven platforms
- Product judgment: You start from the user problem and the outcome you're after, prioritize hard, and can say no to good ideas that don't move what matters
- Holistic product sense: You have an eye for how the whole product fits together, from the core loops to the moments that hook a new user and keep them coming back
- Iteration over big launches: You'd rather ship small and improve over many rounds than disappear into one giant feature. You follow up after launch rather than hand off and walk away
- Design systems expertise: hands-on experience building, scaling, and maintaining systems from the ground up, with a strong grasp of tokens, components, documentation, and deep Figma skills (component architecture, variables, auto layout) for keeping living libraries in sync with production
- Cross-functional collaboration: You work closely with engineers to ensure design system components translate accurately into code
- Cross-platform design: Experience designing for both desktop and mobile, with an understanding of platform-specific UX patterns and accessibility best practices
- In-person: Looking to hire in NYC to work alongside the product team. 5 days in the office
- Gaming: A passion for games and gaming communities. You understand what makes them unique, from the language players use to the social dynamics around play
- Bonus: Experience designing for communities, content creation, or real-time interaction products (Discord, Twitch, TikTok, etc.)
What the job involves
- You'll join a small, talented product team designing consumer-facing experiences built around gaming culture and creator-driven communities.
- You'll own meaningful parts of the product end to end, from the core flows players use every day to the design system that keeps the team moving fast, shipping and iterating closely with engineers.
- Designing across both desktop and mobile, you'll shape polished, accessible experiences seen by millions of gamers
Our take
Video games have become highly social experiences due to multiplayer gaming, eSports and social media, spawning a huge market for audiences who enjoy watching gaming-related video content. Gamers commonly stream games and edit the footage to produce memes and engage with friends, but this requires many software tools and a separate platform on which to share experiences.
Medal provides a social platform for gaming video clips. It allows users to record and edit footage, make gaming memes, and share content with friends form one place. While the company competes with platform giants like Twitch, it stands out by being being specifically designed for gaming content. It also collects in-game data to mitigate cheating and cyberbullying, and integrates directly into any Windows or Android game.
In 2025, Medal spun out "General Intuition", and has since been hiring to both its own and the new company's team. General Intuition's mission is to build a new class of models that can perceive, predict and act in both virtual and physical environments. It is leveraging Medal's vast datasets to this end, reducing the limitations on machine intelligence by training AI on interaction and exploration rather than just written words.
