Description
Are you passionate about bringing early ideas to life through interactive prototypes and compelling product stories? We’re looking for a Senior Product Experience Engineer who blends technical craft, creativity, and narrative thinking to explore what’s possible and help shape the future direction of Slack.
In this role, you’ll experiment with emerging technologies, build high-fidelity prototypes, and collaborate closely with product, design, engineering, and marketing to translate early concepts into functional experiences. Your work will make abstract ideas tangible, inspire teams, and accelerate alignment across the organization.
If you’re driven by solving real product problems, experimenting with new technologies, and shaping early-stage ideas, this role provides a direct path to informing Slack’s product direction.
What You’ll Do:
Build interactive prototypes
Design and develop high-fidelity prototypes using Figma, live code (HTML/CSS/JS), and / or emerging technologies to explore new product concepts and interaction patterns.
Translate early ideas into functional experiences
Work with Product and Design to turn abstract concepts into tangible prototypes that help teams evaluate usability, feasibility, and user value.
Craft product stories through prototypes
Combine hands-on prototyping with clear narrative framing to communicate the “why” behind new concepts and support product strategy and alignment.
Collaborate across the product organization
Partner closely with Product, Design, Engineering, Marketing, and Research to ensure prototypes and demos are grounded in user needs, technical reality, and business context.
Test and iterate quickly
Gather feedback from cross-functional partners, refine prototypes through rapid iteration, and help teams understand tradeoffs and potential directions.
Establish scalable prototyping practices
Create frameworks, documentation, and reusable assets that help distributed teams build, adapt, and reuse prototypes.
Support storytelling for vision work
Build prototypes, interaction flows, and supporting artifacts used in vision presentations, internal product reviews, customer narratives, and leadership discussions.
What You Need to Succeed
Strong ability to define and drive projects with minimal guidance, with an “owner-operator” mindset.
Excellent communication skills, including the ability to present complex concepts clearly to technical and non-technical audiences.
Proven success influencing peers and leaders in a highly matrixed, cross-functional environment.
Advanced storytelling abilities to frame concepts, align stakeholders, and communicate the value and rationale behind new ideas.
Creative problem-solver who can generate innovative approaches and explore ideas that push beyond today’s patterns.
Experience prototyping interactive experiences using Figma, code, or emerging technologies to explore and convey product direction.
Strong understanding of UI and interaction principles
Comfortable working in ambiguous, fast-paced environments with evolving requirements and tight timelines.
Self-motivated, flexible, resilient, and driven by curiosity.
