Sr. UX Designer (Remote) Full Time

Who We Are

Mode Mobile builds apps that reward people for engaging with content, entertainment, games, and digital communities they love. Our portfolio includes category-leading products with millions of users globally, growing through organic expansion and strategic acquisitions.

You’ll be working closely with NGL (“Not Gonna Lie”), one of the most viral social apps of recent years, with 144M+ monthly users across web and mobile. NGL gives people a safe, curious, and authentic space to connect through anonymous messaging and self-expression.

Now part of Mode Mobile’s portfolio, NGL is entering its next phase of explosive growth, including monetization evolution, brand expansion, social behaviors at scale, and product innovation. This role starts with NGL and will extend across Mode’s broader portfolio as we develop user experiences that shape engagement, retention, virality, and revenue.

The Role

We’re seeking a bold, strategic UX Designer who blends creativity, analytical rigor, and a growth mindset. This is not a simple UI design role; it is for a thinker-doer who wants to shape how millions of users engage, share, and monetize across our products.

You’ll design and optimize user experiences that drive engagement, retention, and revenue, starting with Mode’s new social app, and expanding across Mode’s broader portfolio. You’ll work at the intersection of design, product, data, and monetization, turning insights into elegant, high-impact experiences that fuel growth loops and business outcomes.

We’re looking for a self-starter who thrives in ambiguity, sees patterns in data, and acts fast to test, learn, and scale what works.

Our Team and Culture Drive Our Success

Our team is the heart of our culture.  We value innovation, collaboration, and curiosity, with a passion for getting things done.  We strive to hire and cultivate the best team members and foster a culture of open communication and transparency.  We are driven and hard-working but also committed to having fun along the way.  We allow OKRs to guide us, assume positive intent, sometimes agree to disagree and commit, honor our commitments, seek to accomplish more with less, and encourage everyone to speak up as our team owns our company’s success.
