About the role
At Zapier, we build and use automation every day to make work more efficient, creative, and human.
As Growth Design Lead, you'll lead design for a high-velocity experimentation program on our marketing site and campaign surfaces — turning insights into shipped, on-brand interactive experiences and measurable funnel lift. You'll set the bar for growth design craft inside Brand Studio.
This is a senior design IC role. You’ll partner with Growth Marketing, Product, Web/Engineering, Brand, and Data to design, prototype, and iterate experiences at the intersection of design, data, and growth.
What you'll do
- Own the design of the end-to-end visitor-to-lead experience on our marketing site and key campaign surfaces — discovery, education, and try/signup moments — in partnership with marketing, product, and engineering.
- Build and lead a high-velocity design experimentation practice for the top and middle of the funnel — designing test variants, defining success from a UX/conversion perspective, and scaling what works across landing pages, campaigns, and conversion modules.
- Define and evolve an AI-augmented growth design workflow for Brand Studio — faster research, variant exploration, and prototyping — always tied to shippable design quality and brand standards.
- Lead conversion optimization as a design discipline — form hypotheses with partners, design experiments, and iterate from test results and funnel data; translate learnings into system updates where appropriate.
- Improve site IA and page/module design for discoverability, navigation clarity, and conversion efficiency; collaborate on SEO/GEO implications with specialists rather than owning editorial strategy.
- Design high-performing lead-capture and signup flows — forms, gates, and integrated handoff UX — with RevOps/Marketing on requirements, while owning layout, interaction, validation, and accessibility.
- Set the standard for growth design inside Brand Studio — mentor designers, run critique, and raise the bar on craft, experimentation, and AI fluency.
- Extend existing systems (web design system, email design system, brand guidelines) so they support growth and testing; decide in Figma whether a pattern belongs in the system and build the component when it does.
- Partner with Growth Marketing, Brand, Product, Web/Engineering, and Data to turn insights into scalable, on-brand, accessible experiences; stay active in design review and what Brand Studio ships.
- Bring a high creative bar to performance work — brand integrity and funnel performance are both design problems.
- Use AI to raise the ceiling on what we can test — more variants, faster prototypes, documented patterns the rest of Brand Studio can reuse.
What they're looking for
- 10+ years in growth, product, or brand design, with a portfolio of shipped work you personally designed — landing pages, signup flows, campaign LPs, and interactive marketing surfaces — with clear before/after or test/learn outcomes where possible.
- Experience designing for A/B and multivariate tests, helping scale experimentation on web surfaces, and moving from hypothesis to Figma/prototype to live test without dropping quality, accessibility, or brand standards.
- Understand how IA, layout, hierarchy, page structure, performance-minded design, and clear CTAs affect conversion. Partner with SEO/content experts rather than owning content strategy, and stay curious about AI-driven discovery (GEO/AEO).
- Experience designing for CMS-driven, modular sites, contributing reusable components to shared design systems, and knowing when a pattern earns a permanent place in the library versus a one-off campaign.
- Experience designing lead-capture and signup experiences — forms, gates, onboarding-adjacent flows — and reading funnel metrics with partners to inform design decisions. You don't need to own CRM ops or lead scoring.
- Use tools like Cursor, v0, Claude, and Figma AI to explore variants, prototype faster, and increase design velocity — with judgment about quality, brand, and accessibility.
- Deep in Figma for high-fidelity UI, prototypes, and specs, with a high bar for usability, accessibility (ADA/WCAG), and brand integrity.
- A seasoned IC who has worked at the pace of a high-growth company, owns ambiguous, high-impact design work end-to-end, and mentors designers on growth craft, experimentation, and AI fluency.
- Communicate and collaborate well with growth marketers, brand and product designers, writers, engineers, and analysts, articulating design decisions in terms of user experience and measurable outcomes.
- Embody Zapier's values, which help develop trust and ensure we work and collaborate to democratize automation.
