The Discovery and Connection Team (D&C) supports people at the beginning part of their journey with Twitter. New and returning people visit Twitter for fresh and timely content and stay when they connect with a community and/or passion. Our charter is to craft a sense of belonging for everyone on Twitter by helping them connect with people, interests and passions.

As part of the Design and Research organization at Twitter we do our work with a set of 8 principles in mind. It’s our mission to uphold these principles and have them reflected in the experiences we design and build.

• Stand for people: From helping people stay informed to engaging in the public conversation to growing their businesses, always advocate for what is best for the people we serve.
• Live in culture: Be immersed in and inspired by culture and counterculture.
• Set standards & break records: Strive for greatness. Don’t shortchange, shortcut, or settle.
• Work out loud: Share your work and your POV. Create generously. Be transparent.
• Real talk: Give direct, honest, timely feedback that meets people where they are—and helps them along their professional journey.
• Always be learning: Run toward what you don't know.
• Own it: Be responsible for your work, and accountable for the impact it has on other teams and those we serve. Bias toward action. Be decisive. Optimize to fail quickly, and iterate.
• Soar: Bias toward action. Be decisive. Optimize to fail quickly, and iterate.

Who is the customer journey team?

Whether you’re looking for Ariana Grande fanart, #herpetology, or extreme unicycling, it’s all happening on Twitter. Our team is responsible for helping new members navigate the diverse array of public conversations happening on Twitter and quickly find a sense of belonging. We seek to build deep understanding and empathy with our customers to understand what brought them to Twitter in the first place and to identify how we can help them continue to find value on the platform.

What you might bring to the team

As a senior designer passionate about customer journey, you’ll spend as much time dreaming about the future with researchers as you do planning an experimentation roadmap with product managers and engineers. You’ll bring strong opinions about how design can lead a strategic vision and collaborate respectfully with cross-functional partners. You bias to action and build quickly and share often to include as many perspectives as possible in your work.
