About the Role

Product designers at Envoy lead the creation of new products and the entire user experience of Envoy’s products for workplaces. Fundamentally we believe that workplaces work better when they work for people who use them. Product designers at Envoy push the boundaries and seek to be recognized for great design. 

This role focuses on our products Employees use. The primary way we envision employees interacting with their workplace is from their mobile app. We also provide a desktop website, emails, and integrations into popular apps like Slack and Microsoft Teams for employees. We seek to build intuitive, contextual and informative products for employees to use and manage their entire workplace experience. Booking a desk, room, lunch, social events and more can all be booked through Envoy.

This role will involve plenty of research into employees and how they use our products.. This person will travel with the team to do research on employees using our products and will identify ways to transform how those employees use workplaces. They’ll design solutions that challenge the status quo to deliver an amazing user experience. They’ll work with engineering and PM partners to deliver impactful solutions.
