The Tango team is a vigorous cocktail of hard workers, creative brains, energizers, geeks, overachievers, athletes, and more. We push the limits to bring our app from “one of the top” to “the leader”.
The best way to describe Tango's work style is not to use the word “impossible”.

Responsibilities
About the role
We’re looking for a Product Design Lead.
This is a hands-on role. You’ll lead a team of senior product designers, but you’ll also spend a significant part of your time doing design work yourself.
You’ll work on complex product problems, help the team find simple solutions, and keep the quality of our design high.
AI is becoming an important part of how we work at Tango. You’ll help us figure out where it can improve the design process, build new workflows around it, and lead this change within the team.
We’re looking for someone who enjoys both sides of the job: designing products and leading people.
What you’ll do
- Lead a team of senior product designers and help them grow.
- Work hands-on on complex product problems.
- Keep a high bar for product thinking and design quality.
- Work closely with Product, Engineering, and business teams.
- Balance user needs, business goals, and technical constraints.
- Take ideas from early exploration to shipped features and track how they perform.
- Move projects forward when there is no obvious answer or clear path.
- Improve how the design team works.
- Find practical ways to use AI throughout the design process.
- Build and test new AI workflows with the team.
- Present your work, get stakeholders on board, and deal with different opinions when needed.
Requirements
- 5+ years in product design. You’re still a strong hands-on designer and comfortable solving difficult product problems yourself.
