We’re looking for a Staff Product Designer to join our growing team in India. Our ideal candidate has experience designing and enabling global teams to use design systems, including native components for mobile. This candidate also has product design experience and can generate impactful new ideas then bring them to life by using their deep design toolkit and influential storytelling. This role will start with a deep focus on accessibility and design system development, then extend to product design to support the India team’s product strategy.
What You’ll Do:
- Lead accessibility efforts by right-sizing and extending our design system, as well as designing new and retrofitting old components to meet accessibility standards.
- Document standards for accessible product design and enable global design, product, and engineering teams to meet those standards as part of standard practice.
- Present complex concepts in an easily digestible narrative to influence partners and stakeholders.
- Prototype complete experiences (going beyond screens) to make an improved product and service feel tangible.
- Advocate for the user by developing a deep understanding of the end-to-end experience. You’ll sweat the details so our travelers don’t have to.
- Contribute to more elegant, predictable experiences by defining and enhancing the components we use across our core mobile and web flows.
- Collaborate and design across team lines to help provide our customers with a seamless experience.
- Take your designs all the way to the finish line and into our customer’s hands.
What We’re Looking For:
- 7+ years of product design or design systems experience–mobile experience is a must.
- Demonstrated experience designing elegant web and mobile experiences from complex systems.
- A proven track record of driving and shipping quality and impactful work in a consumer, e-commerce, or B2C product.
- A strong portfolio of work that demonstrates strong strategic thinking as well as a deep commitment to details, excellence, and craft.
- A belief that fast cycles of soliciting feedback is the way to continually raise the quality of your work and that excellence is found in the details. You’re excited to drive impact by balancing short term wins with long-term holistic experiences.
- A working knowledge of design thinking and user-centric practices that you can wield to define an innovative vision that you temper with a practical understanding of the technological, business and user opportunities and constraints.
- A team oriented mindset. You believe that designers are facilitators and know the best work is done with a team of diverse perspectives.
- Strong communication skills. You know that behind every design decision is a story to be told. Yes, we use Slack, but we also Zoom often–including with our colleagues in San Francisco.
- Enthusiasm and a growth mindset! Our team is composed of smart, curious, fun individuals who dive headfirst into the problems at hand and share a genuine enthusiasm for building the next generation travel platform.
- An added background in travel–or a deep interest in travel–is a significant plus!
