Senior Product Designer, Diner Platform, Content

Join us and help shape the future of dining! We’re looking for a Senior Product Designer to join our consumer product design team. The Sr. Product Designer will not only be an influential design partner embedded on our Content team and own key parts of our diner-facing experiences that support millions of visits every single day but also impact the content quality that powers experiences. From reviews and images to our newsfeed product and editorial lists, the Sr. Product Designer has the opportunity to both help our restaurants present their best selves and delight diners.

This individual will work closely with a distributed team of product managers, product & brand designers, engineers, and data scientists to craft experiences that will significantly impact diners and restaurants around the world.

At OpenTable, we love designing experiences that help restaurateurs run thriving businesses. We do this by creating industry-leading tools that help them launch, run and grow their restaurants, allowing them to spend less time worrying about their business and more time focusing on delivering incredible hospitality.

In this role you will:

• Develop, build, and evolve new experiences for diners, while balancing the needs of our users, restaurants, and the business.
• Expertly navigate the full range of a product designer’s work—from strategy and research to high-fidelity designs; one day this person could rapidly sketch ideas and launch experiments as A/B tests and another day craft a vision to set a project or team up for long-term success.
• Influence product strategy and translate complex workflows into elegant and accessible user experiences.
• Work through all stages of the design process; from capturing insights with user research, building and testing prototypes in front of real users to visual design, and working collaboratively with product managers and engineers to implement the experience.
• Wear a critical thinking hat. When finding yourself in a debate, you can appreciate both sides of an issue while remaining kind and standing by your convictions.
• Be proactive, conceive and complete a project independently while being open to feedback and coaching.
• Prioritize and break down design work into measurable outcomes and communicate decisions with clarity.
• Pull from your large arsenal of tools and know when to use them to deliver results and gain consensus.
