About the Client

Our client is a fast-growing, VC-backed startup in the travel and AI space — building a product at the intersection of technology and wanderlust. Founded by seasoned operators with backgrounds at some of the most successful consumer startups, the team is now looking for a Lead Product Designer to join their early team and help shape the future of travel tech.

They’re setting a high bar — think YC-style energy, scrappy execution, and a big, bold vision. If you're excited by early-stage startups, high ownership, and real product impact, this could be the perfect next move.

About the Role

As a Lead Product Designer, you’ll take ownership of the entire design process for the core web application. This is a highly product-focused role that requires excellent UX/UI skills, strategic thinking, and a passion for turning complex systems into simple, elegant experiences.

You’ll work closely with founders, product managers, and engineers in a tight-knit, fast-moving team. Beyond design execution, you’ll also play a key role in shaping the product roadmap, defining the design system, and setting the tone for design culture.

Responsibilities

• Own design end-to-end for the product (from early ideation to final UI)

• Collaborate cross-functionally with product, engineering, and leadership

• Create wireframes, prototypes, and high-fidelity designs in Figma

• Build and maintain a scalable design system

• Translate user needs into intuitive, delightful product experiences

• Contribute to product strategy and participate in roadmap planning

• Help drive a high standard for product quality and usability

• Occasionally travel to the U.S. for team offsites or product sprints

What We’re Looking For

• 6+ years of experience in product design, with a strong portfolio of web apps

• Experience designing in fast-paced startup environments (0→1 experience a big plus)

• Strong UX and UI fundamentals; ability to create clean, modern, intuitive interfaces

• Mastery of Figma and modern design tools

• Comfortable working independently and wearing multiple hats

• Strong product intuition and a generalist mindset

• Excellent communication and collaboration skills

• Passion for travel (or at least curiosity about it!)

• Bonus: Experience working on AI-driven products or consumer applications

Why This Role?

• Join a breakout startup at the forefront of Travel + AI

• Work directly with founders and early team

• High-impact, high-ownership role with lots of autonomy

• Remote-first culture with flexibility

• Travel opportunities and a product you’ll actually enjoy using
