Product Designer Open To Full Remote H/F Staycation

Job Description

About Staycation

For most people, hotels are places you only visit when you travel.

But we see something different.

Behind their doors, hotels hide some of the most extraordinary spaces cities have to offer: breathtaking rooftops with skyline views, world-class spas and pools, bars and restaurants led by visionary chefs, interiors that spark the imagination, and beds so perfect you never want to leave them.

Yet, most of these spaces remain invisible to the people who live just a few streets away.

Staycation was born from a simple belief: the most inspiring places in your city shouldn't be reserved for tourists. They should be part of your everyday life: an alternative to a date night at the restaurant, a spontaneous midweek escape, or a unique way to celebrate a special moment.

Our mission is to transform hotels into a new form of urban entertainment.

Places people turn to when they want to feel, connect or recharge. Whether it's 24 hours, 48 hours, or just a few hours, we're reinventing the way people experience the cities they call home.

Today, Staycation means:

- 4 million users in France, Belgium and Switzerland (soon in the UK and Spain)
- 2,000+ partner hotels among the best 4, 5 and iconic palaces
- 9.3/10 average rating for our experiences

Joining Staycation means becoming part of a passionate, creative, and ambitious team on a quest to redefine what hospitality and city life can be.

Before applying, please note: this is a full remote position, but only open to candidates based in France.

The Role

As a Product Designer, your mission is to help shape the future of the Staycation experience, an essential service for urban dwellers.

Your goal: co-create simple, elegant solutions to complex problems, always keeping the user at the heart of everything you do.

At Staycation, the product team is a cross-functional powerhouse made up of Developers, Product Managers, and Product Designers.

Reporting to the CTO, you'll join a squad made up of a Product Manager, a Lead Developer, and several Developers.

The squad identifies and prioritizes key problems, and you'll work together to design the right solutions.

Your playground? The entire Staycation product ecosystem: mobile app, website, hotel services and internal tools.

Key Responsibilities

- Design end-to-end solutions
Be involved in every stage of the product development process-from identifying user needs and defining solutions to delivery and continuous improvement.
- Champion the user perspective in every new feature
You'll know our Personas inside out: their constraints, their needs, their pain points-and you'll make sure their voice is heard throughout the design process.
- Set and elevate best practices
You'll implement design processes, take ownership of the design system, and ensure a top-quality experience in the final product-working closely with developers to make it happen.
- Help grow the design culture
You'll collaborate with other Product and Visual Designers to ensure consistency across all touchpoints. You'll bring in top creative talent (illustrators, 3D artists, etc.) to maximize delight in the product. At Staycation, you'll be both the voice of the user and a champion for design.
- Establish strong User Research processes
Conduct in-depth user research to define Personas and understand their needs. You'll set up processes to continuously enrich and track this knowledge.
