Job Description

Snapshot Join Google DeepMind as a Sr. Staff AI Product Designer on the GeminiApp team, crafting world-class iOS experiences for Gemini. This is a unique opportunity to be at the cutting edge of AI interface experimentation, tackling ambiguous, high-impact design challenges. You'll be instrumental in inventing novel interaction patterns and rich multimodal experiences for users to get the most out of AI, with carefully considered connection to iOS guidelines patterns. Your work will push the boundaries of interface design beyond today’s chat logs based on messaging apps, to create tomorrow’s “natively AI” interfaces. About us Artificial Intelligence could be one of humanity’s most useful inventions. At Google DeepMind, we’re a team of scientists, engineers, machine learning experts and more, working together to advance the state of the art in artificial intelligence. We use our technologies for widespread public benefit and scientific discovery, and collaborate with others on critical challenges, ensuring safety and ethics are the highest priority. The role As the Sr Staff AI Product Designer for Gemini on the iOS platform, you will be the architect of "first-of-their-kind" mobile interactions. We expect you to have 5 or more years designing for widely-respected iOS consumer apps. In this role, you aren't just designing an app; you are designing conversational experiences with agentic behaviors and system-wide intelligence. Your world-class solutions will show care and consideration for established native components and integrations that iOS users expect, while proposing novel new patterns that raise the bar for AI experiences on mobile devices. You will operate at the intersection of Google’s frontier models and Apple’s sophisticated hardware ecosystem. Your work will bridge the gap between high-latency LLM processing and the high-frequency, "instant-on" expectations of iPhone users. You will be a strategic partner to PMs, engineers, and researchers, ensuring that Gemini feels like a first-class citizen on iOS – intuitive, enjoyable, and indispensable.

Develop a deep expertise in user needs across various geographies, platforms, and audience segments, leveraging this understanding to inform all design decisions. Translate complex user insights into actionable design solutions that deliver measurable value to our customers, specifically embracing AI as a tool in your design process not just the end-product for which you are designing. Elevate design craft and champion user-centered design principles throughout the product development lifecycle. About you You are a pivotal and highly impactful designer with compelling iOS platform expertise and design experience (5 years or more), capable of independently driving major design initiatives for AI product experiences. You thrive in complex, rapidly changing environments, consistently delivering breakthrough design, learning to use emerging tools in your design process (e.g., vibe coding), and effectively aligning diverse stakeholders to achieve significant user value.
