Tailscale is a secure networking platform built on WireGuard that helps teams safely interconnect people and devices. The Product Design team is seeking an experienced designer to join the dedicated Product Growth team as the second designer on a cross-functional squad.
You will focus on growth initiatives including activation, onboarding, monetization, user expansion, and referral flywheel optimization. Working closely with Product, UX Research, and Engineering, you'll deliver minimum-viable solutions designed to test hypotheses and drive measurable impact through experimentation.
Key responsibilities include drafting and proposing product changes for growth initiatives, participating in the experimentation lifecycle, contributing to a backlog of experiment ideas, understanding user needs and advocating for product changes, upholding quality standards for shipped work, and partnering with cross-functional teams to define problems and measure impact.
You'll report to the Product Design Manager and work alongside an experienced Product Designer in the growth space. The role emphasizes regular delivery cadence, learning from experiments, and maintaining high craft standards while balancing speed with quality.
Required qualifications: 3-5+ years of product design experience, ideally with onboarding, growth, or monetization focus; hands-on experience with growth tooling (A/B testing, behavioral analytics like Amplitude or Pendo); experience with self-serve, product-led SaaS; comfort interpreting experiment results; ability to balance speed and quality; experience in distributed, async environments.
Nice-to-have: familiarity with Tailscale or networking concepts (DNS, VPNs, traffic routing); experience with LLM tools in design workflows for prototyping and user testing.
Tailscale is fully distributed, backed by top-tier VCs (Accel, CRV, Insight, Heavybit, Uncork Capital), and founded in 2019. The company offers competitive compensation, equity, comprehensive benefits with no waiting period, and a remote-first culture.
