At Lyft, our goal is to serve our riders by connecting them to the people, places, and communities that matter most—through transportation that's thoughtful, reliable, and built around real life. To do this, we start in our own community by creating an open, inclusive, and diverse organization.
We're looking for a talented Product Designer to help shape the Lyft Rider experience. As part of the Rider Core Experience team, you'll design high-impact app experiences that are central to Lyft's growth and success. You'll drive design execution across initiatives focused on rider conversion, retention, and service excellence within the Lyft app—partnering closely with product, engineering, and research to bring these experiences to life.
This role is for someone who thrives in fast-paced environments, rapidly prototypes concepts, and delivers polished work that balances user needs with business goals. You'll contribute to experiences that set new industry standards, helping Lyft grow by turning everyday riders into loyal customers.
We're looking for someone who champions a customer-first mindset and is experienced across the full product design lifecycle—from shaping early ideas to refining the details that ship. You'll use your craft, systems thinking, and product intuition to deliver high-quality work across key parts of the Rider experience.
The opportunity As a Product Designer on Lyft's Core Rider team, you'll shape how riders discover, evaluate, and choose between different ride options across the Lyft app. This role sits within our Offerings experience; where pricing, service differentiation, personalization, and feedback signals come together to help riders find the right ride for every moment.
We're looking for a designer who embraces complexity and sees problems as opportunities. You'll identify friction points in the ride selection and service experience, understand rider expectations, and design intuitive, trustworthy experiences that turn everyday transportation decisions into long-term loyalty. The ideal candidate is a self-starter who challenges existing patterns with strong user empathy and thrives on fast-moving, cross-functional teams.
You'll prototype and test new concepts, validate hypotheses with data and research, and iterate based on real-world insights, while partnering with product, engineering, data science, and research to deliver a clear design vision. This role offers the opportunity to own meaningful workstreams, collaborate with senior designers, and see your work ship at scale across millions of riders.
