Job Description Location: London, GB Condé Nast thrives on collaboration, and our teams come together in the office four days a week (Monday - Thursday). We value diversity of background, views and cultures. We celebrate people for their personal qualities, skills and contributions, recognising the power our brands have to influence and shape culture. The New Yorker brings a distinctive editorial voice to everything it creates. Our goal is to build a stronger, more habitual relationship with our readers, making reading and play a valued part of their everyday lives. Across The New Yorker’s digital experiences and our Puzzles & Games offering, you’ll help give people compelling reasons to return: something worth reading, listening to or watching, a satisfying game, and thoughtful connections between visits. We’re looking for a Senior Product Designer to help shape these experiences across web and apps. Your work will span games themselves and the experiences around them, from gameplay and feedback to discovery, onboarding and the journeys that bring readers and players back. You’ll combine strong visual and interaction craft with clear product thinking, taking a key role in progressing initiatives from early exploration through launch and iteration. You’ll work closely with design leads, product managers, engineers, researchers and editorial partners to turn open questions into considered, usable products. We’re also evolving how we design and build. You’ll bring curiosity and familiarity with AI tools, with room to develop your skills in prototyping and working more directly with code as part of the role. What you'll be doing Connecting reading and play to lasting habits You design both games and the experiences around them, exploring and refining gameplay alongside discovery, onboarding, progress and returning to play. You connect this work to the wider reader experience, considering how each interaction builds familiarity, enjoyment and reasons to return. You question assumptions and work with your partners to define what is worth solving and how you’ll know it has worked. Bringing editorial character to digital experiences You translate distinctive brand identities into clear, engaging interfaces. You bring care to typography, hierarchy, layout and interaction, balancing the character of the brand with usability, accessibility and the needs of different devices. Making interaction feel right You use prototypes to explore behaviour, timing, motion and feedback. Whether you’re refining a reading journey, helping someone discover a game or developing an interaction within one, you pay attention to the details that make an experience intuitive and satisfying. Understanding readers and players You seek out research, analytics and direct feedback to inform your decisions. You run lightweight usability testing, partnering with UX Research where deeper investigation is needed, and use what you learn to improve the work. Designing with and contributing to systems You use shared components, patterns and design tokens confidently, recognising where consistency helps and where a new approach is justified. You contribute reusable solutions that support brand expression and work within the realities of our platforms. Staying close to implementation You collaborate with engineers throughout the design process, discussing feasibility early and reviewing the experience as it is built. You work through interaction details, edge cases and visual QA so the quality of the shipped product reflects the intent of the design. Using AI as part of your practice You explore where AI tools can add value to your design practice, building on your experience and learning alongside the team. You experiment with ways to develop ideas, prototype and collaborate with engineering, applying your judgement to the results and sharing what you learn. Learning from what ships You agree intended outcomes with your product and engineering partners, then use analytics and qualitative feedback to understand performance. You connect design decisions to measures such as engagement, repeat use and retention, and identify where further iteration will make a difference. Contributing to the team You communicate your thinking clearly, build productive relationships across disciplines and participate actively in critique. You share your work and methods, support other designers and bring an open, constructive approach to feedback. You'll thrive in this role if… • You bring strong visual and interaction design skills, with particular care for typography, detail and the quality of the finished experience. • You can take an ambiguous problem and turn it into a clear direction, working with others to make sensible decisions about scope and priorities. • You’re interested in editorial products, puzzles and games, and what makes people return to an experience over time. • You’re confident in Figma and interactive prototyping, and comfortable working with design systems, tokens and technical constraints. • You’re familiar with AI tools, have used them in your design practice and are cur
