Posted on Mar 6, 2026
We are at a category-defining moment, building the AI-native experience layer for a platform that is fundamentally replacing the way marketing gets done. As a Product Designer on our Platform Team, you won't just be executing clean briefs—you will be architecting the foundation that powers how millions of users experience ActiveCampaign at scale. This is the team where core interaction models are defined and where cross-cutting patterns either hold together or fall apart.
We are looking for a designer who is "dangerous" in the best way: someone who goes three layers deeper than asked, builds high-fidelity prototypes when a static frame would have sufficed, and seeks to understand the business rationale behind every pixel. If you are hungry to design with real stakes and want to lead the shift toward AI-first interfaces, this role is your opportunity to move faster, think bigger, and leave a permanent mark on a world-class SaaS ecosystem.
