Staff Product Designer, Discovery

Wander is seeking a Staff Product Designer to lead design for its Discovery team and help hospitality operators reach more travelers and grow their businesses. The role partners with Product and Engineering to set direction, solve complex problems, and ship clear, high-quality experiences.

Responsibilities:

• You'll partner closely with Product and Engineering to define direction, solve hard problems, and ship exceptional experiences
• You'll be the team's only designer, working alongside a small, senior engineering team that ships daily
• You'll represent Design in the room, advocate for our customers, and protect the quality and consistency of our product
• Turn noisy, uncertain information into something operators trust and act on
• Make complex workflows feel clear and intuitive
• Discovery has more good ideas than capacity. You'll bring customer evidence and a clear point of view on what we build and what we don't

Requirements:

• You can independently set product direction, challenge assumptions, and hold your own in cross-functional decisions
• You're proactive, autonomous, and deeply trustworthy
• You identify blind spots, bring people together, and move things forward without waiting to be asked
• You balance business needs, customer problems, and great design
• You know when to push boundaries and when to defend the design system, and you evolve it without becoming a gatekeeper
• You make dashboards, metrics, and data visualization feel simple and trustworthy
• You're comfortable using AI, Figma, code, and tools like Vercel to prototype, experiment, and ship fast
• You care about the smallest details and the biggest ideas
• You'd rather cut a feature than ship a confusing one
• include a portfolio with shipped product work
• Experience with SEO, marketing tech, or growth products
