The Apps User Experience team is crafting the core elements of creative and diverse experiences on Discord. Millions of people use apps & bots on Discord every day to manage communities, play games with friends, listen to music, and so much more.

Apps play a huge part in Discord's mission of creating a new kind of place where it’s easy to genuinely communicate, have fun hanging out, and build relationships. Join us and help build the future of our platform󠀡!

What you'll be doing

• Build & ship high-quality experiences for our users, working directly with design and product teams.

What you should have

• 5+ years full stack experience. Familiarity with web and application (e.g. React, TypeScript, Python), and API development is a plus. Mobile experience on Android and iOS (React Native) is also a plus.
• Attention to detail and an eye for visuals. Design skills are not required but you will work with the designer to iterate on existing designs.
• Led execution for multiple projects from inception to launch.
• A growth mindset. You view mistakes as learning opportunities and build upon your successes. You challenge yourself and those around you to improve

About Us

Discord is a voice, video and text app that helps friends and communities come together to hang out and explore their interests — from artists and activists, to study groups, sneakerheads, plant parents, and more. With 150 million monthly users across 19 million active communities, called servers, Discord has grown to become one of the most popular communications services in the world. Discord was built without selling ads or user data and instead, offers a premium subscription called Nitro that gives users special perks like higher quality streams and fun customizations.

We’re working toward an inclusive world where no one feels like an outsider, where genuine human connection is a click, text chat, or voice call away. A place where everyone can find belonging. Challenging? Heck yes. Rewarding? Double heck yes. It’s a mission that gives us the chance to positively impact millions of people all over the world. So if this strikes a chord with you, come build belonging with us!
