Senior Product Designer
Home’s mission is to make housing better for everyone. It’s our vision to build a truly innovative and 100% digital self-serve marketplace, where landlords and tenants are connected through a seamless user experience as well as sleek design. That is why we’re looking for a senior (full-stack) designer to co-own the transition from an operational / sales-driven company to a product-led organisation. It’s our vision to build a truly innovative and 100% digital self-serve marketplace, where landlords and tenants are connected in a way that makes housing better for everyone. Your role will be to re-define the experience of renting and letting an apartment in the 21st century that truly “wows” the customer, while driving relevant business results for the company.

- execute excellent UX flows
- apply visual design systems
- prototype using a variety of tools and methods
- create production ready designs
- participate or conduct usability testing
- collaborate closely with multi-disciplinary teams to ensure that the quality of implementation meets design requirements
Your experience allows you to guide and mentor and grow junior designers and (eventually) build out and lead our design team as we scale.

- You are extremely organized and smart about how to prioritize work
- You are excellent in cross-functional collaboration and communication

- Deep understanding of design processes to guide, plan, and scope project work
- Design experience in both web and mobile context
