Senior Product Designer

At Navan, we strongly believe that the best way to achieve business success is by listening to our customers and focusing on solving their needs with innovative, elegant, technology-driven solutions. Our product designers are transforming how people experience business travel.

We’re looking for a Senior Product Designer to join our Product Design Team. You’ll partner with your Product & Engineering counterparts to create innovative, delightful travel experiences.

Our ideal candidate is a visionary architect with a well tuned intuition who can generate impactful new ideas at the intersection of customer and business needs then bring them to life by using their deep design toolkit and influential storytelling.

What you’ll do:

• Work with the Product Design team and a team of Product Managers and Engineers to design and build the next generation of business travel shopping, management, and servicing experiences
• Present complex concepts in an easily digestible narrative to influence partners and stakeholders
• Prototype complete experiences (going beyond screens) to make an improved product and service feel tangible
• Advocate for the user by developing a deep understanding of the end-to-end travel experience. You’ll sweat the details so our travelers don’t have to
• Contribute to more elegant, predictable experiences by defining and enhancing the components we use across our core mobile and web flows
• Collaborate and design across team lines to help provide our customers with a seamless experience
• Take your designs all the way to the finish line and into our customer’s hands

What we’re looking for:

• 4+ years of strategic product design or service design experience
• Demonstrated experience designing elegant web and mobile experiences from complex systems
• A proven track record of driving and shipping quality and impactful work in a consumer, e-commerce, or B2C product
• A strong portfolio of work that demonstrates strong strategic thinking as well as a deep commitment to details, excellence, and craft.
• A belief that fast cycles of soliciting feedback is the way to continually raise the quality of your work and that excellence is found in the details. You’re excited to drive impact by balancing short term wins with long-term holistic experiences
• A working knowledge of design thinking and user-centric practices that you can wield to define an innovative vision that you temper with a practical understanding of the technological, business and user opportunities and constraints
• A team oriented mindset. You believe that designers are facilitators and know the best work is done with a team of diverse perspectives
• Strong written and verbal communication skills. You know that behind every design decision is a story to be told. Yes, we use Slack, but we also Zoom and Loom often
• Enthusiasm and a growth mindset! Our PDE team is composed of smart, curious, fun individuals who dive headfirst into the problems at hand and share a genuine enthusiasm for building the next generation travel platform. If your team knows you as the designer who says, “what if we tried...” more often than “that won’t work,” this could be a great fit

Bonus points:

• An added background in travel–or a deep interest in travel–is a significant plus!
• Motion design
