The Yahoo Mail Ads Growth & Monetization team is responsible for designing and evolving advertising experiences across the Mail ecosystem. We focus on building scalable, user-centered monetization solutions that support long-term revenue growth while maintaining user trust and product quality.

We are looking for a Senior Product Designer with strong product thinking, visual craft, and systems-level design skills to work on Yahoo Mail s ad-supported experiences across desktop, mobile web, iOS, and Android. In this role, you will partner closely with Product Management, Engineering, Data Science, Research, and business stakeholders to shape advertising experiences within the inbox. The ideal candidate thrives in ambiguity and brings strong judgment to complex, revenue-critical design decisions, translating monetization strategy into clear design direction and high-quality solutions that balance user needs, advertiser value, and business goals.

Product designers at Yahoo Mail collaborate with cross-functional partners to define the vision for new features while owning and driving the craftsmanship for every interaction and visual design detail. Day-to-day, you will:

• Lead the design strategy for Yahoo Mail ads monetization, including ad formats, placements, and in-product surfaces that drive sustainable revenue while preserving a high-quality inbox experience
• Own the end-to-end design process for complex monetization features, from concept through launch, ensuring solutions are scalable, user-centered, and production-ready

• Apply sound design judgment to balance user needs, advertiser goals, and business outcomes
• Partner effectively with Product Managers, Engineers, and Data partners, clearly communicating design rationale and adapting your approach to different audiences and contexts
