About This Role
Strava is the leading digital community for active people with more than 125 million athletes in more than 190 countries. The platform offers a holistic view of your active lifestyle, no matter where you live, which sport you love and/or what device you use. Everyone belongs on Strava when they are pursuing an active life.
Strava's Design Team advocates for our community members and our business, setting and executing on the vision for our product to connect athletes to what motivates them and help them find their personal best. We use design, research, data, strategy and empathy to guide cross-functional teams toward our common goal of becoming the preeminent platform for athletes. It is important to us to include diverse perspectives, and empower our teams to do great work.
As a Staff Product Designer focusing on Trust and Safety, you will lead multiple projects of significant scope, complexity, and responsibility in creative vision, strategy, and execution.

A community that is safe, free from abusive interactions and spam, free from bots and impersonation and built on strong principles is the remit of this role.
We are looking for someone who is a passionate advocate for the user, and will influence strategies in building user facing T&S experiences including reporting and appeals flows, block and mute functionality, privacy controls (audience, activity and map viz, heatmap privacy, etc.), to name a few. This person will also serve as a consultant on community moderator tools (in conjunction with our Groups designer), groups T&S challenges and direct messaging safety. This will ensure that content and behaviors causing harm to users or society do not compromise the quality of the product and the community it supports.
You'll work closely with teams to identify user needs and problems, and define optimized end-to-end user journeys. You'll collaborate closely with the design, product, data and engineering teams to deliver the best-in-class experience for Strava's users.
