Associate Product Designer

Associate Product Designer 

For over 20 years we’ve been connecting diners and restaurants for millions of date nights, birthdays, Taco Tuesdays, happy hours and just-because dinners. Dining behaviors and restaurant operations are ever changing, especially now, and at OpenTable you’ll be playing a crucial role in shaping the future of the dining industry as it evolves during and after the pandemic. We’d love you to join us in thoughtfully supporting both our diner and restaurant customers through the good times and the tougher ones, too, driving experiences that will be used by millions globally.

We’re looking for an Associate Product Designer to join our UX team. You’ll work closely with a global team of product managers, product & brand designers, engineers, and data scientists to craft experiences that will meaningfully impact diners and restaurants around the world. 

In this role you will:

- Be a key design partner embedded in our Marketplace team, the team behind the crucial part of the dining journey where diners discover restaurants, Experiences, and all the content that OpenTable has to offer, making our product exciting and inspiring for new and returning customers.

Work to create, evolve and develop new experiences for diners, while balancing the needs of our users, restaurants, and the business. You’ll be encouraged to expertly navigate the full range of a product designer’s work—from strategy and research to high-fidelity designs. On some days you’ll be rapidly sketching ideas and launching experiments as A/B tests, and others you’ll be crafting a vision to set a project or team up for long-term success.
