About The Role
Join Strava, the leading social network for athletes. As a Senior Manager of Product Design, you will own the design direction and quality across Explore, Live, and Map.

Enjoy a range of benefits including 100% company paid benefits for employees and families, flexible paid time off, and a $2,000 annual professional development stipend.
- Assumer la direction et la qualité du design pour les produits Explore, Live et Map, en prenant des décisions au niveau des fonctionnalités et des projets.
- Gérer et développer une équipe de 4 designers produits, en mettant l'accent sur la croissance de l'artisanat, le développement de carrière et l'amélioration de la qualité de leur travail.
- Collaborer avec les responsables de la gestion de produit et de l'ingénierie pour chaque vertical, en contribuant à la planification du produit et en veillant à ce que le design soit un élément significatif des décisions.
- Comfortable leading a distributed team across multiple European locations — London, Chamonix, and Berlin
- Strong cross-functional partnership skills: you've worked alongside PM and Engineering leaders to shape product direction and you know how to hold a point of view in senior conversations
- Demonstrated experience leading Product Design at a senior manager level (or equivalent), with a track record of managing designers and owning design direction across multiple product areas
- Experience with consumer product design at meaningful scale — you've worked on products that real people rely on, and you understand the responsibility that comes with that
- Demonstrated ability to raise craft and quality across a team — you develop others and build a culture where quality is expected, named, and consistently raised
- Based in London or actively relocating
- Still in the work at a high level — you give precise, substantive craft feedback, engage in design decisions at the detail level, and set the bar through your own taste and judgment, not just through oversight
- Ability to set and articulate a clear design vision — not just reacting to what's in front of you, but establishing a point of view on where the product should go and bringing others along with it
