Staff Product Designer, Document Cloud Growth

Adobe Design is looking for a Staff Product Designer to join the Document Cloud team, focused on growth for PDF Spaces — Acrobat’s AI‑powered way to work with documents. This is a new and ambitious product experience, and we’re looking for a designer who wants to shape how it reaches users at scale. The Document Cloud Design team has a strong legacy of innovation — honored in TIME’s Best Inventions in 2023 for Liquid Mode and again in 2024 for Acrobat’s AI Assistant, and recognized by Fast Company as one of the Top Most Innovative Companies in Applied AI. If you’re passionate about connecting great product experiences to the people who need them, we’d love to hear from you. You’ll own the design of how users move from first encounter with PDF Spaces through activation, engagement, and sharing — work that ranges from precise, data‑grounded optimizations to larger bets that rethink how Spaces surfaces in a workflow entirely. What you’ll do Discover. Dig into funnel data with your partners to find where users hesitate, miss the value of Spaces, or drop off — and turn those signals into design opportunities. Hypothesize. Frame clear design hypotheses and prototype quickly to test how placement, messaging, and interaction design affect whether users understand and adopt Spaces. Experiment. Run tests ranging from entry‑point and copy changes to larger redesigns of how Spaces is introduced in a workflow. Prioritize speed of insight over perfection. Influence. Connect design decisions to business outcomes and present rationale clearly to partners and senior stakeholders. Collaborate. Work closely with research, data science, content strategy, product management, and engineering to align on user needs and intent across the Spaces funnel. Define. Set the standard for what growth design means on this team — contribute frameworks and approaches others can build on. Elevate. Operate at staff scope: shape the problem, influence roadmap, and raise the quality of the team’s thinking about how Spaces reaches and resonates with users. What you need to succeed Must‑haves 8+ years of product design experience. A portfolio demonstrating strong UX across multi‑surface, multi‑platform experiences. Experience working on E2E growth, activation, engagement, or conversion problems. Comfort reasoning from behavioral data and metrics, not just user research. Strong problem‑framing skills — ability to define the right problem before pursuing solutions. A track record of running experiments: hypotheses formed, tests run, learnings applied. Proven cross‑functional collaboration, particularly with research, data, PM, and content partners. Exceptional communication skills and ability to drive alignment with senior partners. Proficiency in Figma and ability to convey ideas through prototyping in Figma, Cursor, etc. Nice‑to‑haves Experience with AI/ML‑powered product experiences. Familiarity with A/B testing platforms and experimentation infrastructure. Experience designing for document or productivity workflows. Preferred Accessibility Design Skills Experience designing accessible and inclusive interfaces for people with disabilities. Understanding of applying WCAG conformance criteria in design, specifically testing comps, wireframes, and prototypes for accessibility standards. Accessibility certifications CPACC, WAS, CPWA, or ADS from the IAAP preferred. How to apply Please submit your resume and portfolio. We are particularly interested in seeing: Work where the starting point was a user problem or a gap in the funnel — not a feature request. Examples of both optimization work and larger conceptual swings, with clear explanation of how you decided which the situation called for. How you partnered with research, data, PM, and content to define and validate your approach. Evidence of staff‑level scope: you shaped the problem or influenced the roadmap, not just executed. Expected Pay Range The U.S. pay range for this position is $146,300 – $274,300 annually. In California, the range is $189,400 – $274,300. Pay within this range varies by work location and may also depend on job‑related knowledge, skills, and experience. Adobe is proud to be an Equal Employment Opportunity employer.
