Role
Who you are
- You have 7+ years designing for enterprises, with demonstrated experience driving initiatives across multiple product areas, aligning misaligned stakeholders, and partnering with VP-level leadership on product direction
- You present to executives, navigate conflicting feedback from sales, engineering, and customer success, and drive alignment when teams disagree
- You see how admin, workspaces, and observability connect—and design systems that work cohesively across all of them
- You establish design patterns, governance frameworks, and interaction models that other teams adopt and build on. Your work compounds value across the organization
- You've shipped admin experiences, RBAC systems, audit trails, or compliance features for thousands of users across multiple stakeholder groups (IT, Security, Compliance, end users)
- You design governance and oversight experiences that help enterprises adopt AI confidently—balancing democratized access with necessary controls, and making complex systems like permissions, provisioning, and IDP mapping intuitive without oversimplifying what power users need
- Demonstrate Craft and Impact: Share a portfolio that highlights polished UI, strong UX thinking, and clear, measurable impact on both user behavior and business goals
- Fluent in AI: Have hands-on experience designing AI-powered features and using AI tools to enhance creativity and expand design possibilities
- We're looking for the best fit for each of our roles, regardless of the type of companies in your background, so we encourage you to apply even if your skills and experiences don’t exactly match the job description
What the job involves
- As a Senior Product Designer on our AI Tasks team, you'll craft experiences that make powerful AI capabilities approachable and trustworthy
- You'll own Human-in-the-Loop and AI by Zapier—designing the tools that help millions of users confidently integrate AI execution and human review into their automations
- You'll report to Mindy Wagner and work directly with product, engineering, sales, and customer success to shape how our customers use AI to unlock new workflow capabilities
- Strategic impact and real influence. Your designs directly drive Zapier's enterprise growth, shape company strategy, and close major deals. You're defining how we think about enterprise design across the company
- Fascinating, career-defining problems. Enterprise AI governance, citizen development models, administrative AI agents, and organizational transformation are genuinely challenging design spaces at the forefront of where work is headed. Help establish industry-leading patterns
- Exceptional collaborators. Partner with product, engineering, and go-to-market teams who care deeply about outcomes and are building something genuinely differentiated
- Drive cross-zone design initiatives. Lead work across admin, workspaces, and observability surfaces. Navigate competing team priorities, align misaligned stakeholders, and establish shared direction that serves the platform. Transform requirements from sales conversations, compliance audits, and customer feedback into intuitive workflows that just make sense
- Partner with executive leadership and shape strategy. Present to executive stakeholders, translate business strategy into design direction, and influence company roadmap through research-backed design thinking. Lead cross-functional workshops and facilitate discovery that identifies strategic opportunities others miss
- Define AI governance UX and platform patterns. Design admin workflows, policy management tools, administrative AI agents, and real-time risk detection that give IT leaders confidence at scale. Create design systems and governance frameworks that work for both 500-person startups and 100,000-person enterprises—and that other teams build on
- Coach designers and build team capabilities. Help designers tackle enterprise complexity and level up on what makes enterprise design effective. Share your frameworks broadly and help the team grow
Application process
- Deadline to Apply: December 15, 2025 at 8:00 AM UTC
- All we ask is that you answer a few in-depth questions in our application that would typically be asked at the start of an interview process. This helps speed things up by letting us get to know you and your skillset a bit better right out of the gate. Please be sure to answer each question; the resume and CV fields are optional
- Education is not a requirement for our roles; however, if you receive an offer, you will need to include your most recent educational experience as part of our background check process
- After you apply, you are going to hear back from us—even if we don’t see an immediate fit with our team. In fact, throughout the process, we strive to never go more than seven days without letting you know the status of your application
Our take
Even before remote working became the "in thing", freelancers, small business owners, and large organisations have found themselves needing more and more software platforms to serve their operations needs. As people used more software services, Zapier founders saw the need to connect the actions between these softwares and save everyone some time.
Zapier is the largest integration and automation tool for businesses. Since being founded, Zapier has grown its suite of automation offerings across almost every mainstream software service. The company is one of the most successful to come out of Y Combinator, and has also been one of the pioneers of remote working.
Zapier has so far, been able to capitalise heavily on its advantage as first entrants and has had very little actual competition. Software services aren't going anywhere anytime soon and organisations are only going to need more of them. This puts Zapier in a strong place growth-wise but also opens up room for bolder companies to get in on the action. Companies like Airtable and Integromat are already preying on more niche segments of Zapier's market share.

Additional info
- As a fully remote company with 800+ team members across 40+ states, 38 countries, and 18+ timezones, we’ve adopted a culture of asynchronous work. This work style allows teams to collaborate effectively across locations, time zones, skills, and each individual’s energy levels, and empowers employees to work in a setting that fits their needs. In practice, we live on Slack, with most conversations in public channels. It mimics the open-office feel and allows everyone to search the chat logs if they need to find something that happened when they weren’t around
