Life360

5d • Remote

About The Position

Life360 is seeking a transformative design leader to join their Ecosystems team, pioneering the next horizon of the Life360 experience. This role is ideal for someone with a zero-to-one mindset and strong collaboration and partnership skills, who can deliver at scale. The designer will be at the forefront of shaping how everyday family life is improved, both within the Life360 app and across third-party ecosystems. The position is US-based with a salary range of $171,000 to $252,000, with compensation considering individual background, experience, and geographic location. The compensation package includes a wide range of medical, dental, vision, financial, and other benefits, as well as equity.

Requirements

• 10+ years of experience designing for mobile-first, consumer-facing products, including location-based and or health/fitness and wellness features.
• Experience with design partner programs and systems of continuous feedback with early access customers.
• Strong UI/UX craft with a portfolio demonstrating elegant, data-informed solutions to complex problems.
• Experience designing with and for AI-enhanced experiences.
• Skilled in rapid prototyping, with a bias toward agency, exploration and iteration with a proven ability to close the gap and deliver a scalable feature or product.
• Excellent communication and storytelling abilities—able to influence across functions and levels.
• Systems thinker with a track record of creating scalable frameworks and design processes.
• Positive, collaborative mindset—brings energy, curiosity, and humility to every challenge.
• Curiosity and experimentation: You actively explore AI tools to understand what they can (and can't) do for design work — research synthesis, concept generation, critique, content, system documentation. Some experiments will fail. That's part of it.
• Judgment and ownership: AI-generated work gets the same critical eye you'd give any design review. You evaluate outputs against user needs, brand, and product goals — and you're accountable for everything you ship.
• Better work, not just faster work: When AI is working well, it helps you make better decisions — not just move faster. You're always asking whether it's actually improving the outcome, not just the output.
• Team leadership: You share what works. You bring workflows, prompts, and tools back to the team.
• Continuous learning: The tooling is changing fast. You stay curious, stay current, and speak up when something would meaningfully improve how we work.

Responsibilities

• Lead Product Design Across Platforms: Drive end-to-end design across Life360's platforms, translating insights and strategy into elegant, scalable solutions aligned with product and business goals.
• Deeply understand partner apps — their value props, user bases, and technical capabilities — and design experiences that connect them meaningfully to Life360 without disrupting what members already love.
• Design the in-app experience for how users discover, connect, and manage partner integrations within Life360.
• Explore, Prototype, and Innovate: Lead early-stage design efforts by rapidly prototyping concepts with AI-native and standard design tooling to test novel user experiences at speed and scale.
• Map and storyboard user journeys for partner integrations and turn those into visual artifacts stakeholders can quickly react to.
• Simplify and Systematize: Design frameworks and interaction models that reduce complexity and enhance clarity, performance, and delight.
• Develop scalable patterns used across product teams to elevate and unify design standards.
• Collaborate and Influence: Partner across Product, Engineering, Brand, and Research to deliver high-quality outcomes and influence strategy with a strong design point of view.
• Present insights and solutions at both the IC and C level that impact the business and roadmap.
• Mentor and Lead by Example: Guide and mentor fellow designers, modeling exceptional craft, curiosity, and cross-functional collaboration.
• Champion design culture and innovation by sharing best practices and bringing in inspiration from across industries.

Benefits

• Competitive pay and benefits
• Medical, dental, vision, life and disability insurance plans (100% paid for employees)
• 401(k) plan with company matching program
• Mental Wellness Program & Employee Assistance Program (EAP) for mental well being
