Reddit’s Ads Design & Research team shapes the end-to-end advertising experience across advertiser tools, consumer ad experiences, measurement, and the systems that connect them. We’re looking for a Principal UX Engineer who sees code as a product-design medium. You’ll use it to bring ambitious ideas to life, explore and validate new directions, and help teams make better product decisions earlier.
