Overview
Design at Yelp is in the midst of an exciting transformation, and we’re on the lookout for product designers ready to take the next step in their career. You’ll have full ownership of the product design you’re working on, as well as the opportunity to 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 chance to make a real impact on a product that hundreds of millions of consumers trust to discover and engage with businesses in their community. The culture at Yelp is a unique environment that combines the best parts of being at a startup with the stability and resources of a successful public company.
We’re looking for a product designer to help us design engaging advertising products for Yelp’s mid-market and enterprise customers. If you’re looking to impact critical revenue-generating products at a fast-growing consumer company, this role is for you. The online advertising market is in the hundreds of billions, and Yelp’s share is $1B a year and growing fast.
