Senior Product Designer
At Apollo GraphQL, we’re on a mission to make it radically easier for engineering teams to ship fast, reliable products and services on top of the world’s data, powering everything from web to mobile to agentic experiences.
Apollo supports some of the largest GraphQL APIs in the world. Companies like Walmart, Expedia, Peloton, DoorDash, and The New York Times are just a small sample of our customers. And what consumes an API is changing: increasingly it’s an agent acting on someone’s behalf, one that needs a graph it can traverse and controls over what it can reach. That’s the next thing we’re building, and design will decide whether it’s usable.
About the role
Apollo assigns designers to our highest-leverage problems, and priorities are set quarterly. Current areas include developer onboarding, our core product interfaces, the design system, and emerging agentic products.
You’ll work alongside our Head of Design, owning well-scoped problem areas end to end: understanding the users and the system behind them, shaping a v1 with engineering, and shipping polished, usable experiences. You’ll bring a point of view to your work and help raise the craft bar across the team.
Minimum requirements
Preferred qualifications
Apollo helps teams build, operate, and scale the graphs that power modern applications. If you’ve streamed a show, booked a trip, or read the news online, there’s a good chance Apollo was working quietly behind the scenes. We support some of the largest and most sophisticated GraphQL platforms in the world.
But we’re not here just to maintain the status quo. Apollo is redefining how software teams build and ship - bringing clarity, speed, and leverage to increasingly complex systems. Our platform gives teams a single, coherent way to connect clients, services, and now AI-powered experiences, without drowning in endpoints or bespoke integrations.
Just as importantly, we’re building a company where ambitious people can do the best work of their careers. That means meaningful ownership, smart teammates, and tackling hard problems that actually matter. If you like moving fast, thinking deeply, and helping shape what comes next, you’ll feel right at home here.

Apollo's careers page says its benefits package depends on whether you are located in the UK, Canada, or the US. Each role sets its own location requirements, so check the location line on each posting before you apply.
Yes. Apollo's job postings list a salary range, and many also offer equity. Pay is set per country. Postings open to the US or Canada note that Canada has a different compensation range, and the company describes its approach as competitive, market-informed pay with consistency within the team in each country.
Apollo offers Flexible Time Off rather than a fixed allowance. In the UK and Canada it runs as flexible time off in practice, which the careers page says folds in country-specific nuances. Parental leave covers both birthing and non-birthing parents, and a personal leave specialist guides you through the process.
According to Apollo's job postings, US employees choose from a set of Anthem Blue Cross medical plans, and California residents can also choose Kaiser plans. Dental and vision coverage come through Sun Life Financial. Benefits for employees in the UK and Canada follow each country's own package.
