Product Designer

• Design new educational games that captivate learners and make foundational concepts addictive to master
• Help evolve UX of Brilliant’s learning games across web and mobile, from first touch to mastery
• Invent and refine new interactive patterns for learning math, data, and computing (symbolic math, constructing graphs, drag‑and‑drop coding, etc.)
• Prototype quickly and at high fidelity to test feasibility, usability, and delight before committing engineering time
• Produce a range of artifacts: polished UI, icons, motion studies, prototypes, and clear Figma specs
• Work with content experts to choose the clearest way to teach a technical topic. Start with sketches on a whiteboard and turn that into a design system that we can ship
• Extend and steward design systems so they scale well across platforms and teams
• Hold the bar on the Brilliant brand at every touchpoint and contribute to a culture of excellence and accountability
• Keep asking, “How does this help our learners?”

• Demonstrated product design experience at consumer or SaaS companies
• Experience with content platforms (education, news, publishing, video, gaming) is a plus
• Care about building things that are useful, usable, and genuinely desirable
• Can turn a messy, ambiguous problem into a clear plan and shipped product
• Prototype using whatever tool makes the interaction feel most real (Figma, Principle, Framer, vibe coding…)
• Have a portfolio that shows features you helped build from scratch, especially complex interaction work
• Are interested in Brilliant’s subject areas and in how people learn
• Write clearly and document your work
• Like experimenting with new tools to improve your workflow and output
