The role

ABOUT STRAVA Strava is the app for active people. With over 200 million athletes in more than 185 countries, it’s more than tracking workouts—it’s where people make progress together, from new habits to new personal bests. No matter your sport or how you track it, Strava’s got you covered. Find your crew, crush your goals, and make every effort count. Start your journey https://www.strava.com/subscription with Strava today. Our mission is simple: to motivate people to live their best active lives. We believe in the power of movement to connect and drive people forward. ABOUT THIS ROLE Strava's San Francisco office is home to some of the product teams driving the company's most critical growth areas. The SF design portfolio spans some of Strava's highest-priority product surfaces — from athlete engagement and growth, to commercial products and platform trust — areas that are central to Strava's commercial growth and long-term athlete retention. As Director, Product Design, you'll lead design across these verticals, owning design direction, setting the craft standard, and developing a team of 5 designers. You'll work in close partnership with PM and Engineering leaders, hold a strong design perspective in product strategy conversations, and be a senior voice in Strava's global Design org, reporting directly to the Senior Director of Product Design. We follow a flexible hybrid model that translates to more than half of your time on-site in our San Francisco office, three days per week. WHAT YOU'LL DO - Own design direction and quality across a portfolio of SF-based product verticals spanning athlete engagement, growth, and platform integrity — driving design strategy and key decisions at the vertical and feature level - Stay actively in the work: give precise, substantive craft feedback, engage in design decisions at the detail level, and set the standard through your own taste and judgment — not just through oversight - Manage and develop a team of 5 Product Designers
