About the role
Planning a trip is stressful. You'll make WAYO feel calm and trustworthy, from the first question we ask a traveller to the moment a local's tip pops up on their phone.
Why now: The product works but was designed by an engineer. We need someone who owns the experience, sets a design system and runs research with real travellers.
Your first 90 days
Day 30
Watch five travellers plan a trip with WAYO and map where they get stuck.
Day 60
Redesign the planner flow and ship it with the engineers.
Day 90
Own the WAYO design system and the design of the mobile app.
What you'll do
- Design end-to-end flows for planning, checking and travelling.
- Run quick research: interviews, usability tests and survey follow-ups.
- Build and maintain a design system in Figma that matches the code.
- Prototype ideas fast and test them before we build.
- Make accessibility part of every design.
What you'll bring
- A portfolio showing shipped product work and your thinking, not only final screens.
- Strong interaction and visual design skills.
- You've done user research yourself.
Bonus points
- Mobile app design experience.
- You can write some front-end code.
- Travel or maps product experience.
This probably isn't for you if…
- You prefer handing off static mocks and moving on.
