The opportunity

We’re looking for a Senior Product Designer to join our consumer product design team! This person will work closely with a globally distributed team of product managers, product & brand designers, engineers, and data scientists to craft experiences that will significantly impact diners and restaurants worldwide.

The Sr. Product Designer will be an influential design partner embedded in our Booking & User Experience team, who owns the crucial part of the dining journey where diners complete their reservations, Experiences, takeout orders and more.

This individual will work to create, evolve and develop new experiences for diners, while balancing the needs of our users, restaurants, and the business. The Sr. Product Designer is expected 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 rapidly sketch ideas and launching experiments as A/B tests, and on others you’ll craft a vision to set a project or team up for long-term success.
