About RDC+ Realtor.com has connected home buyers and agents for 25 years. RDC+ is building what comes next: an AI-first collaboration platform that makes the working relationship between agents and buyers seamless from first search to closed deal. The core experiences have launched — this role is about refining, expanding, and elevating them. The Role You'll be the primary designer embedded with the RDC+ product team, spanning both the agent-facing platform and the consumer experience across iOS, Android, and web. Your work will range from leading design direction on specific surfaces to executing within established patterns on others — the balance shifts based on where the team's focus is. This isn't a role where you hand off comps and move on. You'll shape features early alongside PMs and engineers, carry them through delivery, and stay close enough to the data to know when something needs to be revisited.

Requirements

Senior to lead-level product design experience, with a portfolio that shows end-to-end ownership — not just polished UI
Strong interaction design, UX copy, and systems thinking across both mobile and web
Experience designing for complex, workflow-heavy tools — not just consumer apps
Comfortable operating before requirements are fully defined; you know how to bring focus to ambiguous problems without waiting for perfect inputs
Proven ability to collaborate with PMs and engineers as a true thought partner, not a downstream executor

Nice To Haves

Experience designing for two distinct user types on a shared platform (e.g. marketplace, B2B2C, or prosumer tools)
Familiarity with AI-integrated UX patterns
Experience with MLS platforms or real estate workflows
Has worked on a lean team where you had to prioritize ruthlessly and still ship quality work

Responsibilities

Own end-to-end design on agent and consumer surfaces — research synthesis, IA, flows, UI, and UX copy
Lead design direction independently on some surfaces; execute within existing design system patterns on others
Partner with PMs from early problem framing through shipping, not just during the design phase
Collaborate with Consumer Design, UX Research, Content, and Design Systems teams to align experiences and avoid redundant solutions
Represent design in cross-functional rituals and product reviews — you'll be the design voice in the room, with leadership support as you grow into more strategic storytelling
Coordinate design deliverables across multiple squads without losing quality or consistency
