We’re in the process of transforming design at Yelp and searching for a Lead Product Designer ready to take the next step in their career. You’ll have ownership of the design of the product you’re working on, and will collaborate with product managers, engineers, writers, researchers, and other designers to make quick decisions in a highly collaborative environment.

Yelp is the best source of knowledge about local businesses. At Yelp, you’ll have the opportunity to have a real impact on a product that hundreds of millions of consumers trust to discover and engage with businesses in their community!
