About Ahrefs

Ahrefs is seeking a strong Product Designer to join our Product team. This is a senior role that goes beyond traditional design responsibilities. In our company, we don't have a conventional product manager role, so our product designers take full ownership of their products, combining design, product management, and leadership skills. You'll work closely with engineers and data scientists, leading projects from initial ideas through release, managing ongoing improvements and support.

This role is based out of our Palo Alto, California office. Our product designers work side by side with engineers and data scientists day to day, so you'll be based in the Palo Alto office. This is an on-site role.
