Required:

• 3+ in Windows desktop application development using Windows App SDK, WinUI (or similar), C#, XAML — and ideally additional experience with native Windows code (C++, Win32/WinRT/COM).
• Deep understanding of Windows application architecture, including interop between managed code (.NET) and native code.
• Proven track record of designing, building, and shipping production-quality desktop applications, with an emphasis on reliability, performance, scalability, and maintainability.
• Strong experience with accessibility APIs on Windows (e.g. Microsoft UI Automation or similar), and a dedication to building accessible and inclusive software.
• Excellent software engineering fundamentals: OOP, design patterns, data structures, algorithms, memory management, multi-threading or asynchronous programming (where relevant).
• Experience leading technical design, mentoring other engineers, conducting code reviews, and making architecture-level decisions.
• Strong communication skills; ability to articulate tradeoffs, collaborate with cross-functional teams, and drive consensus.
• A user-centric mindset: focus on building polished, intuitive, and accessible experiences for end users.

Preferred / Bonus:

• Experience with writing automated tests for UI — unit tests, integration tests, UI automation tests; familiarity with relevant testing frameworks.
• Experience with performance optimization for desktop apps (memory usage, startup time, rendering performance, high-DPI support, responsiveness under load).
• Experience with localization/globalization, right-to-left UI support, internationalization, accessibility for multiple regions.
• Familiarity with telemetry, analytics, crash reporting, logging, and error monitoring in desktop applications.
• Previous experience in shaping CI/CD workflows, release pipelines, and deployment strategies for desktop applications.
• Demonstrated ability to take ownership of feature areas or modules and drive them long-term, including maintenance, refactoring, and technical debt management.

What we offer

• A high-impact role: you will define architecture, shape the future of our Windows product, and directly influence what millions of users see and experience.
• A collaborative, flat-structure engineering culture — you are not just a coder, but a builder and a decision-maker.
• Opportunities to lead — mentor others, steer technical direction, and grow into broader technical leadership (e.g. Tech Lead, Architect).
• Flexibility, autonomy, and responsibility: you define how to solve problems, own features end-to-end, and contribute to long-term product vision.
• A purpose-driven mission: building software that’s reliable, accessible, and user-centered — making a real difference for people.

Please note that this is a Full-Time Contractor (12-month contract) – you’ll have the flexibility to work remotely, with the option to join us in the office whenever you’d like!

At Picsart, creators are at the heart of everything we do. We believe that delivering exceptional creator experiences is key to our success. Our Design disciplines, Product Design, User Research, and UX Writing, shape these experiences and help define what’s next for Picsart.

In this role, you’ll design and shape the next generation of AI-powered creative experiences across Picsart. This includes evolving areas like Drive, AI Agents, and emerging product surfaces where creation, exploration, and automation come together.

You’ll help define how creators interact with intelligent systems, where content doesn’t just live but becomes usable, discoverable, and actionable. From AI-assisted workflows to agent-driven experiences, you’ll contribute to shaping a more adaptive, context-aware creative platform.

You’ll work across web and mobile platforms, designing systems that support how creators generate, organize, and evolve their work in an AI-native environment.

Embedded within core product areas, you’ll partner with product, engineering, growth, monetization, and product marketing teams to drive meaningful outcomes for both users and the business.

This is a hands-on individual contributor role. We’re looking for someone who leads through craft, contributing high-quality design work and influencing through execution.

You will operate with an AI-first design workflow, from ideation to prototyping, leveraging tools beyond Figma, including AI-assisted prototyping and code-based exploration, to move quickly and validate ideas in real contexts.

How You'll Make an Impact

• Design systems and interactions that define how AI-powered tools, agents, and workflows behave and feel.
• Work across interconnected experiences such as Drive, Agents, and creation flows to ensure coherence and continuity.
• Shape how assets, outputs, and ideas are surfaced, reused, and activated through intelligent systems such as search, recommendations, and automation.
• Create scalable patterns for organization, discovery, and interaction across complex and evolving product ecosystems.
• Sketch, prototype, and test rapidly using a mix of design and AI or code-based tools.
• Use research and data to ensure solutions align with real creative workflows and needs.
• Partner with product and data scientists to translate behavioral insights into product improvements.
• Work closely with engineering, product, growth, and marketing to ship cohesive, high-impact experiences.
• Push for excellence in craft and systems thinking, helping define the standard for AI-native product design.

What You'll Bring

• 5+ years of experience designing consumer-facing products, ideally SaaS, creative tools, or productivity platforms
• Experience designing complex systems or workflows such as content platforms, dashboards, automation tools, or multi-surface ecosystems
• Strong systems thinking, with the ability to design beyond individual screens
• Experience working with AI-assisted design workflows and rapid prototyping approaches
• Comfort working beyond traditional tools, not limited to Figma
• Familiarity with front-end code or code-based prototyping such as vibe coding
• Strong visual and interaction design skills including typography, layout, motion, and systems thinking
• Experience improving key user flows such as activation, retention, and engagement
• Strong communication and collaboration skills
• A portfolio demonstrating end-to-end thinking and measurable impact

Good To Have

• Experience designing AI powered features such as search, recommendations, auto tagging, or smart organization
• Familiarity with creative workflows such as design, video, or content production
• Experience with file systems, cloud storage, or asset management tools
• Interest in shaping AI native product experiences beyond traditional UI patterns
