Whop is building the social commerce infrastructure for the world. We believe in a future where all businesses are communities that directly engage their customers. We believe the best products in the universe are made by builders, not corporations. We're looking for a Product Designer who shares our passion for design that’s clean, bold, and creator-first — and who thrives in a fast-moving, zero-to-one environment. About you: We’re seeking a Design Lead to guide the vision, quality, and execution of product design. This is a hybrid role for someone who’s eager to lead by doing — balancing hands-on design work with mentorship and strategic thinking.

You want to leave a (big) dent on the world. You have a really high bar for what constitutes a great product and user experience. You are generally disappointed in the bar held by most people every day. You drive towards simplicity and expect others to do the same. What does the role look like?
