About the job

At Google, we "Focus on the user and all else will follow." Our Visual Designers weave space, typography, color, and iconography to help people successfully navigate our products, ensuring they are beautiful and accessible. You will join our multi-disciplinary UX team, collaborating with Engineering and Product Management, to leverage user insights and create industry-leading products.

As a Visual Designer, you will rely on user-centered design methods to craft industry-leading user experiences from concept to execution. You will collaborate with your design partners to leverage and evolve the Google design language to build beautiful, innovative, inspired products that people love to use.

In this role, you will own the quality of everything our team puts out, from launch visuals and executive decks to design system components. You will work with the design system team on components and templates, and partner with product marketing to produce go-to-market assets for our industry solutions and launches. Our team works as an AI native, so you will move between the latest AI design and coding tools and traditional tools like Figma to get work out fast without lowering the bar. Over time, you will document how production gets done, decide what stays in house and what goes to agency partners, and set the quality bar the rest of the team works to.

  • Work with the design system team on components, templates, and specs, and build kits that make it fast for any designer to present their work well.

  • Set and document the quality bar for everything the team ships, coach designers on getting there, and write clear, precise specs that engineers can build from.

  • Use the latest AI design and coding tools alongside traditional tools like Figma to speed up production, and document how production gets done so the work doesn't depend on any one person.
