The Role We Need:
PadSplit is hiring a Senior Product Designer to shape and improve experiences across our two-sided housing marketplace.

- Collaborate Cross-Functionally – Work closely with PMs, engineers, marketers, operations, and data partners to develop and deliver cohesive solutions.
- Craft High-Quality UI – Build responsive, polished interfaces in Figma using thoughtful components, interaction patterns, and PadSplit’s design system.
- Build AI-Infused Experiences – Prototype and design intelligent workflows and AI-powered features alongside our engineering, ML, and AI teams.
Here’s What You’ll Need to Be Successful:
- Proven Experience – 4+ years designing digital products, ideally with complex acquisition funnels or marketplace environments.
- Deep UX Skills – Strong research abilities and comfort engaging directly with users to uncover pain points and opportunities.
- Business Fluency – Ability to connect design decisions to metrics, revenue, and real estate economics like rent, ROI, and occupancy.
- Workflow Mastery – Experience designing multi-step processes, complex service environments, and edge-case-heavy workflows.
- UI Excellence – Expertise in Figma and interaction design across web and mobile, with strong systems thinking and component reuse.
- Data Orientation – Familiarity with A/B testing, experimentation frameworks, and interpreting both qual and quant insights.
- AI Capability – Demonstrated experience designing AI-powered features and leveraging modern AI tools in your design practice.
- Authentic Collaboration – A humble, kind, curious, and mission-driven approach that elevates the team and the user experience.
