Role

The Product team at Carrot is seeking a Content Design Lead to help shape mobile experiences focused on helping people improve their fertility and hormonal health.

This role is a hands‑on opportunity for an expert practitioner who thrives in early‑stage product development and who is adept at working across domains and levels. In a given week, you might define and write the many states of a complex interaction, experiment with new variables for an LLM prompt, present product ideas to cross‑functional leaders, give feedback on design system iterations, and synthesize input from clinical partners.

We're looking for someone who moves toward ambiguity with excitement, asks “why” before “what,” and brings rigor and clarity to everything they touch. You approach novel problems with a spirit of experimentation and rapid iteration. You know that content design is a constitutionally strategic practice, and that interface is only the tip of the UX iceberg.

Responsibilities

• Partner with a product designer to co‑lead development of intuitive, compelling mobile experiences that drive repeat engagement and healthy habit building.
• Collaborate closely with product managers and engineers from concept to launch.
• Deeply understand complex problems for our customers, members, and internal teams, and propose solutions that meet business goals, technical constraints, and user needs.
• Develop and refine LLM prompts that improve personalization and efficacy.
• Conduct research, using qualitative and quantitative insights to drive strategy and design decisions.
• Define, design, and steward interactions, IA, language, and concepts that scale and cohere across a complex ecosystem.
• Seek and provide feedback through design critiques, engineering reviews, and workshops.
• Build consensus and maintain alignment with stakeholders and leadership via collaboration, influencing, storytelling, and formal presentations.
• Nurture relationships across the organization to uphold and further develop content design and UX’s positions as foundational strategic disciplines.
• Help shape our team’s culture, process, and future.
• Advocate for users through the entire product development process.

The Team

Carrot’s Content Design team works collaboratively to iterate on a rapidly evolving platform and service. You'll report to the Senior UX Strategist and work closely with a product design partner, a product manager, engineers, other designers, and cross‑functional teams.

Minimum Qualifications

• 7+ years of professional experience in product content design and strategy.
• Portfolio that highlights systems thinking, problem‑solving, exceptional writing, cross‑functional collaboration, and measurable impact in a product context.
• Experience conducting user research and translating insights into product solutions.
• Highly developed sense of ownership and accountability.
• Ability to build consensus, drive alignment, and influence leaders in a dynamic, cross‑functional environment.
• Talent for prioritization, trade‑off negotiation, and pivoting as work evolves.
• Experience with design tools (e.g., Figma), CMSes, and user research platforms.

Preferred Qualifications

• Experience in behavior change.
• Experience with 0‑1 product development and/or early‑stage companies.
• Experience presenting to and working with senior business leaders.
• Experience building mobile experiences that drive repeat engagement.
• Experience with or deep interest in AI and prompting.
• Success working with/on multi‑disciplinary product teams.
• Experience with health tech, women's health, and/or fertility.
• Familiarity with localization and strategic considerations for a global audience.
• Experience founding or substantively scaling content design practices.
• Experience with conversational design.Familiarity with accessibility standards and inclusive content practices.
• Appetite for continuous growth and feedback, as well as a developed talent for mentoring others.
