Lead Product Designer - Core​/Visual Editor

Position: Lead Product Designer - Core / Visual Editor
We built Bubble with a clear mission in mind: to empower everyone to create software. We believe anyone with an idea should be able to build it, so we're making software creation accessible to everyone. Our AI visual development platform enables anyone, whether they're first-time entrepreneurs or enterprise teams, to take an idea from prompt to fully-functional, scalable reality across web, iOS, and Android - all on one platform, all without writing or managing a single line of code.

As the only full-stack, cross-device no-code platform on the market with over 5 million users in over 100 countries, Bubble is breaking down the barriers to entrepreneurship and innovation across the globe.

What we've achieved:

Our product is working, and we are thriving. Entire VC-backed companies have been built entirely on Bubble. After finding product market fit and 8 years of bootstrapping, we raised a $100 million Series A and we're one of the fastest-growing companies in the New York tech ecosystem.

You can build just about anything on Bubble - and our community is living proof. More than just launching products, people are turning their ideas into real businesses. Mailead grew a $10k investment in a Bubble product into a $2M valuation, while Faceless.video went from 0 to $1M+ ARR in less than a year, among many other examples.

About The Role:

At Bubble, we're redefining how software gets made-and that transformation starts in our visual editor. We're looking for a Lead Product Designer to own the evolution of the core Bubble application building interfaces where makers bring their ideas to life. This is a high-impact role for a designer who thinks end-to-end about complex systems and workflows, and who thrives on turning that complexity into powerful, intuitive tools.

Our goal is to improve the ease of use of our visual development editor so that anyone can succeed at building applications on the Bubble platform while also enhancing and extending it to support additional use cases.
