About the company Whatnot is the largest live shopping platform in North America and Europe. We’re re‑defining e‑commerce by blending community, shopping, and entertainment into a platform just for you.

We’re a remote co‑located team driven by innovation and anchored in our values. With hubs in the US, UK, Germany, Ireland, and Poland, we’re building the future of online marketplaces together.

Role We’re looking for a Product Designer to join our Trust & Risk team—someone passionate about creating thoughtful, scalable systems that protect and empower our community.

In this role, you’ll design tools, workflows, and user experiences that help identify and prevent abuse, enforce platform policies fairly, and support users throughout their safety journeys—from proactive education to responsive resolution.

You’ll partner closely with product designers, product managers, engineers, operations, data scientists, and policy experts to build solutions that balance safety, speed, and user trust—whether you’re designing an appeals experience, reviews, internal enforcement tooling, or real‑time interventions during live shows.

Responsibilities

Design end‑to‑end experiences that protect the integrity of the platform while minimizing friction for good users

Collaborate with cross‑functional teams to translate complex policies and workflows into intuitive product experiences

Create wireframes, prototypes, and final visuals that bring clarity to ambiguous trust and safety problems

Contribute to the broader design system while advocating for accessibility and inclusive user experiences

Use data, research, and feedback to iterate on existing tools and identify areas for improvement

Support internal teams who moderate content, review reports, and resolve user issues with efficient and usable tooling

Qualifications

4+ years of experience designing digital products, ideally on Trust, Safety, Compliance, or Integrity teams

Strong interaction and systems thinking—you can untangle complex flows and design for edge cases

Strong portfolio demonstrating your experience

Expertise in design and prototyping tools (e.g., Figma, Protopie, Framer)

Deep understanding of user experience design principles and methodologies, including user research, wireframing, prototyping, and usability testing

Excellent communication and collaboration skills, with the ability to work effectively with cross‑functional teams

Team members in this role are required to be within commuting distance of our New York, NY, San Francisco, CA, Seattle, WA, or Los Angeles, CA hubs.

Benefits

Generous holiday and time‑off policy

Health insurance options including medical, dental, vision

Work from home support

Care benefits, including monthly wellness and childcare allowances and lifetime family planning benefits

Retirement plans: 401k with employer match up to 4% of base salary and pension plans internationally

Dog‑food allowance and other perks (e.g., app usage, monthly allowances)

Parental leave: 16 weeks paid plus one‑month gradual return to work, subject to local laws
