Design and refine host experiences for property owners in a two-sided marketplace, enhancing onboarding and user journey while collaborating with teams to deliver intuitive UI solutions.
The Role We Need:
PadSplit is hiring a Senior Product Designer to accelerate growth on the supply side of our two-sided marketplace. This role will shape how property owners discover PadSplit, understand our value, and seamlessly onboard their homes so they can start earning quickly and confidently. You’ll play a central part in designing a frictionless, human, and scalable host experience.
The Person We Are Looking For:
We’re looking for a senior-level designer who blends product intuition, growth-minded experimentation, and deep empathy for users. You thrive in complex systems, move fluidly between big-picture architecture and pixel-level detail, and can clearly tie design decisions to business outcomes. Above all, you are authentic, collaborative, and energized by solving meaningful problems.
Here’s What You’ll Be Doing Day-to-Day:
- Design Host Funnel – Create and refine pages, flows, and experiments that convert curious owners into successful hosts.
- Own Onboarding – Simplify property setup, pricing configuration, and listing preparation to ensure hosts launch quickly.
- Humanize Complexity – Make topics like compliance, property rules, and earnings feel clear, warm, and approachable.
- Conduct Research – Interview, observe, and gather insights from hosts to translate real needs into stronger UX.
- Experiment Rapidly – Run landing page tests, funnel optimizations, and A/B experiments with growth and product partners.
- Collaborate Cross-Functionally – Work closely with PMs, engineers, marketers, and data analysts to deliver cohesive solutions.
- Craft High-Quality UI – Build responsive, polished interfaces in Figma using thoughtful components and interaction patterns.
- Build AI-Infused Experiences – Prototype and design intelligent workflows and AI-powered features alongside our ML/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.
The Interview Process:
- NO BOTS HERE: your resume will be reviewed by live humans from PeopleOps and the hiring manager, our Head of Design.
- If we’re interested, the next step would be a video screen with a member of the PeopleOps team for about thirty (30) minutes.
- If it goes well, the next steps would be a video interview with hiring manager for one (1) hour.
- If warranted, the final step would be a video panel interview with key stakeholders at PadSplit for one (1) hour.
- The panel interview will require a candidate to work on a design assessment where you will showcase your design skills to the panel for discussion.
- If warranted, then we move to offer!
