About this role

We’re looking for a Product Designer to help shape experiences across the GHIN mobile app, web products, and AI-powered tools. GHIN Golfer Products (mobile app and GHIN.com) will be a primary focus, with an emphasis on ongoing feature development, optimization, and expansion following its recent redesign. The role will also contribute to consumer websites, administrative tools, and other digital systems for golfers and golf administrators.

This role is ideal for a well-rounded product designer who brings strong visual design craft, UX thinking, experience working with established design systems, and the ability to support user research initiatives.

What you’ll do:

• Design new features and enhancements across the GHIN mobile app, while contributing to a portfolio of web-based products and platforms
• Translate business requirements, user needs, and technical constraints into thoughtful, user-centered design solutions that simplify workflows and deliver intuitive experiences
• Explore multiple design directions, evaluate tradeoffs, and present clear recommendations to stakeholders
• Create wireframes, high-fidelity designs, prototypes, and implementation-ready documentation in Figma
• Partner closely with product managers, engineers, and stakeholders throughout the product-development process, from discovery through delivery
• Contribute to and evolve the GHIN design system, ensuring consistency across mobile and web products
• Support user research activities to inform decisions and improve product outcomes (e.g., interviews, surveys, usability testing)
• Provide design support for GHIN marketing initiatives, including digital and print collateral (e.g., slides, signage, email campaigns)

Where you’ll be:

This role will be based at our Liberty Corner, NJ campus on a hybrid schedule. Employees are required to spend 3 days per week working in the office, between Monday - Thursday. Tuesdays and Wednesdays are mandatory in-office community days. Employees can choose between Monday or Thursday as their third in-office day.

What you bring:

• At least 3-5 years of experience designing digital products, ideally consumer-facing mobile apps and responsive web experiences
• A portfolio demonstrating strong visual design, UX problem-solving, and the ability to simplify complex user experiences
• Expertise in Figma, including design systems, reusable components, prototyping, and scalable design workflows
• Strong visual craft, interaction-design skills, and attention to detail across typography, hierarchy, layout, and usability
• Experience translating requirements into well-reasoned design solutions and independently driving projects from concept through implementation
• Excellent communication and collaboration skills, with the ability to work effectively across product, engineering, business, and design stakeholders
• Curiosity around emerging technologies, including AI-powered products and tools, and an interest in applying them thoughtfully within the design process

Nice to have:

• Experience with design system governance and design-to-code collaboration
• Experience designing AI-powered or data-rich product experiences
• Familiarity with user research and product analytics
• Brand or marketing design experience
• Passion for golf
