Staff Product Designer
Our mission at Duolingo is to develop the best education in the world and make it universally available. It's a big mission, and even though we've made a lot of headway, we still have work to do — and that's where you come in!
Duolingo's designers care about creating high-quality experiences that look and feel fun. From animators to writers, product designers to researchers, Design brings purpose, feeling, and delight to every interaction with our brand, inside the app and out. As a designer, you'll join a culture of creativity and craft, where we have a high bar for excellence and an endless curiosity about how to bring more unexpected quirk and fun to the pursuit of learning.
Join us in our mission to develop education for our half a billion (and growing!) learners around the world.
