Product Manager, Design & UX
What is Fizz
Fizz is the social platform built for authentic connection. We started by building the largest college social network in the U.S., and are now expanding Fizz into a global community where people can connect around the places they live, the communities they belong to, and the things they care about.
We're building a different kind of social product: one centered on conversation, community, and meeting people, rather than consuming content from creators and influencers.
The Role
We're looking for a Product Manager, Design & UX who sits at the intersection of product management, product design, and building.
This is not a traditional PM role. You'll spend the majority of your time hands-on: designing in Figma, using AI to analyze data and prototype ideas, and shipping product changes yourself when possible.
You'll operate in two modes. Sometimes you'll own a product problem end-to-end, from identifying the opportunity and pulling the data to designing, shipping, and measuring the solution. Other times, you'll partner with another PM and focus on turning their ideas into exceptional product experiences.
You should be equally excited about both.
We care less about whether you started as a PM or designer. We care that you have exceptional product judgment, are excellent at product design, and want to use AI to dramatically increase what one person can build.
What You'll Do
Spend significant time in Figma designing production-ready product experiences
Own product initiatives end-to-end, from problem → data → design → ship → iterate
Partner with other PMs to turn product ideas into simple, intuitive experiences
Use AI to query and analyze product data yourself, uncover opportunities, and make data-driven product decisions
Build prototypes quickly using AI and other modern development tools
Ship visual and UI changes directly to production without engineering support when possible
Own and evolve Fizz's design system
Work directly with engineers on changes that require deeper technical work
Use experiments, product data, and user feedback to continuously improve what you ship
What We're Looking For
Exceptional product judgment and consumer product taste
Advanced Figma skills and a desire to spend >70% of your time designing and building
Excellent UX and interaction design skills
Strong visual design instincts and attention to detail
Experience building consumer mobile products
Strong analytical thinking and comfort using AI to independently query and analyze product data
Technical enough to use AI coding tools to prototype and ship visual product changes yourself
Ability to independently own a product problem and be accountable for its outcome
Equally comfortable partnering with another PM and focusing primarily on design
High ownership, low ego, and a bias toward shipping
You Might Be a Great Fit If...
You're a PM who opens Figma instead of waiting for a designer
You're a product designer who wants more ownership over product decisions, data, and outcomes
You use AI to answer your own product questions instead of waiting for an analyst
You'd rather make a simple product change yourself than write a ticket for an engineer
You obsess over user flows and interaction details that others miss
You enjoy both figuring out what to build and personally designing and building how it should work
Why Fizz
You'll have significant ownership over a consumer product used at scale. You'll work with a small team of PMs and engineers, move quickly from idea to production, and help us define a more AI-native way of building products.
