Product DesignerDesign & Creative

We are seeking a hands-on Senior Product Designer to help transform an existing travel and hospitality MVP into a polished, intuitive, and launch-ready digital product. The platform connects travelers through trusted personal networks, enabling them to discover, rent, and exchange homes. You will help evolve an established mobile experience while shaping a more comprehensive and responsive web product. Working closely with founders, technical leadership, and engineers, you will identify usability gaps, refine key customer journeys, and translate business priorities into thoughtful design solutions. This role calls for strong product judgment, creativity, and the ability to work with an evolving product in an early-stage environment. Your work will directly support the platform's initial US launch and establish a scalable design foundation for future growth.

Review and evolve the existing product experience, including current Figma assets and the mobile MVP/beta application.
Collaborate with product and technical leadership to assess the existing experience, identify UX gaps, and prioritize improvements for the initial US launch.
Translate business and product requirements into clear, intuitive user flows and high-quality interfaces.
Improve and evolve the existing React Native mobile experience while designing new responsive web experiences that remain consistent with the core mobile product.
Improve key user journeys across the platform, including:
- Onboarding and account creation.
- Home discovery and browsing.
- Social interactions and trusted-network experiences.
- Home listing and property presentation.
- Booking and rental processes.
- Home exchange workflows.
- Payments and checkout.
- Messaging and user communication.
- Trust and safety processes.
- Identify usability inconsistencies, friction points, and opportunities to simplify the product.
- Create wireframes, interactive prototypes, high-fidelity designs, and reusable design components.
- Maintain and evolve the product design system to support consistency and scalability.
- Work closely with engineers to validate design feasibility and ensure accurate implementation.
- Provide product design recommendations, challenge assumptions constructively, and help distinguish launch-critical improvements from longer-term enhancements.
- Establish a cohesive experience across mobile and web platforms.
- Document important design decisions, user journeys, and UX workflows to support future product development and team onboarding.
