Senior Product Designer

At Preply, we’re all about creating life-changing learning experiences. We help people discover the magic of the perfect tutor, craft a personalised learning journey, and stay motivated to keep growing. Our approach is human-led, tech-enabled - and it’s creating real impact.

We’ve just reached unicorn status with a $150M Series D, accelerating our vision to transform education through human-led, AI-enhanced learning. Today, 100,000+ tutors teach 90+ languages to learners in 180 countries - and we’re only getting started. As a category-defining company, we’re shaping what the future of learning looks like at global scale.

Every Preply lesson sparks change, fuels ambition, and drives progress that matters. Joining Preply means helping define the future of education at global scale, and building something that truly matters for millions of people, every day.

At Preply, we believe learning with the right tutor can be life-changing. Designing products that help people build confidence, make progress, and unlock opportunity through learning is both a privilege and a responsibility. It takes a diverse, multidisciplinary team to build a product at this scale - and Design plays a central role in shaping how learners and tutors experience Preply every day.
Design at Preply is about creating bold, beautiful, and seamless experiences that make learning feel intuitive, motivating, and human. We care deeply about craft and about turning a deep understanding of learners and tutors into products that genuinely improve how people learn and teach.
This is a role with real ownership and influence: you’ll shape direction as much as execution, working through ambiguity to turn complex problems into simple, high-quality experiences.

• Own design at a squad level, co-creating product strategy and the product roadmap with your Product Manager counterpart.

• Lead design end-to-end - from understanding learner and tutor needs, to exploration, prototyping, iteration, and high-quality execution.

• Design bold, thoughtful learning and growth experiences, using research, feedback, and experimentation to improve usability and outcomes.

• Challenge assumptions and push beyond existing patterns, exploring what the experience could be - not just what it is today.

• Partner closely with Engineering to balance ambition with practicality and deliver polished, scalable solutions.

• Contribute to shared patterns, the design system, critiques, and cross-functional discussions, helping maintain coherence and raise the bar across Preply.

• Proven experience as a Senior Product Designer on B2C products with frequent, real-world usage (ideally mobile-heavy or cross-platform).

• Clear ownership of product design at a squad level, collaborating closely with Product, Engineering, and leadership to guide outcomes.

• Exceptional craft and product judgment, demonstrated through shipped work.

• Strong user empathy, with experience using research, data, and experimentation to inform decisions.

• Experience designing or scaling AI-driven features would be a plus.

• A portfolio showing senior-level ownership, craft quality, and impact.

• An open, collaborative, dynamic and diverse culture;

• A generous monthly allowance for lessons on Preply.com, Learning & Development budget and time off for your self-development;

• A competitive financial package with equity, leave allowance and health insurance;

• Access to free mental and physical health support platforms

• The opportunity to shape the lives of learners and tutors through language learning and teaching in 175 countries (and counting!).

  …and more, depending on your location.
