About the Job

We’re seeking an experienced and innovative Principal Product Designer to join the Life360 Product Design team at a pivotal moment in our growth. As part of our newly formed Ads Operating Group, you’ll help build an ad and promotions platform from-the-ground-up that delivers meaningful value to families while driving membership and revenue growth. This is a zero-to-one opportunity for a visionary designer who thrives on experimentation, scalability, and crafting intuitive, impactful experiences.

In this role, you’ll own the end-to-end design of advertising systems that feel seamless, respectful, and valuable. You’ll collaborate with product, engineering, and analytics teams to define strategies, prototype innovative ideas, and iterate using data insights. Your work will balance business goals with user needs, ensuring that ads enhance — rather than interrupt — Life360 members’ experiences.

We’re looking for a proactive problem solver who excels at connecting design with outcomes, brings a strong portfolio, and is ready to push creative boundaries in the ad space. If you're ready to lead the charge in shaping how ads work to enhance everyday family life, we want to hear from you.

We take into consideration an individual's background and experience in determining final salary - therefore, base pay offered may vary considerably depending on geographic location, job-related knowledge, skills, and experience. The compensation package includes a wide range of medical, dental, vision, financial, and other benefits, as well as equity.

What You Will Do

As a Principal Product Designer at Life360, you’ll lead the design of our ad and promotions platform, building it from the ground up to deliver seamless, valuable experiences that enhance family life while driving business growth.

You will:

• Design intuitive, user-centric ad experiences that balance user needs with business goals.
• Partner with product, engineering, and analytics teams to identify opportunities and deliver innovative solutions.

You should have:

• 7+ years of product design experience, ideally with ad or promotional systems.
• A strong portfolio showcasing intuitive, impactful user experiences.
• Proficiency in Figma and design systems, with a focus on scalable, reusable components.
• A data-driven mindset, collaborating with analytics teams to improve experiences.
• Strong communication and storytelling skills to articulate design decisions across the company.
• Experience partnering with product managers and engineers to deliver high-quality solutions in fast-paced environments.
• A growth-oriented, entrepreneurial mindset, ready to drive impact and take ownership of projects from start to finish.

Bonus qualifications:

• Experience with motion design and animation for interactive ad experiences.
• Familiarity with growth-focused design practices and retention strategies.

We value having a diverse and inclusive community from many backgrounds, so even if you don’t meet 100% of the above qualifications, you should still seriously consider applying!
