archer56 The UX Product Designer is responsible for end-to-end product design for consumer aviation apps on iOS, Android, and web platforms. The role involves shipping consumer mobile app features and refining them based on user data and feedback.
Responsibilities
End-to-end product design for consumer aviation apps on iOS and Android, along with the websites and web apps that support them
Design for a wide range of users, from casual flyers and aviation enthusiasts to working pilots who need information that's fast, accurate, and trustworthy
Run product explorations: sketch out directions, pressure-test them with users and the team, and kill the weak ones early
You'll get context and constraints from Design Leadership, PM and engineering, but the design leadership on your projects is yours
Ship to the App Store and Google Play, then keep refining based on how people actually use what you shipped: analytics, experiments, reviews, and user research
Raise the bar on craft across the org, through your own work and through feedback on everyone else's

Required
5+ years of product design experience minimum.
A track record of shipping features for consumer mobile apps on the App Store and Google Play, ideally at a startup, a big tech company, or both
Products you've designed that are live and in users' hands. We will ask about them, in detail: what you decided, what you got wrong, what you'd change
Deep fluency in native iOS and Android design (Human Interface Guidelines, Material Design) and strong systems thinking across mobile and web. You know when a pattern should be shared across platforms and when it shouldn't
Experience using data to shape design decisions, from engagement and retention metrics to App Store feedback
Comfort with ambiguity. If you need a fully scoped ticket before you can start, this won't be a fit
A portfolio that shows your thinking, not just polished final screens
Bonus Qualifications:
You're a pilot, student pilot, plane spotter, or all-around aviation nerd. You'd be designing for people like you, and that matters
Experience designing consumer apps built around real-time data, maps, or location
Experience growing a consumer app: onboarding, retention, subscriptions, or monetization, social posting and marketing collateral
Experience working alongside AI/ML teams, or designing products with AI-driven features
