The Role
You’ll be part of a dynamic micro-team with a clear focus, bringing together engineering, product management, and design to work towards shared goals. Each team works together to design, test, build, measure, ship and iterate the experiences that will deliver value to the business by helping customers with:
- Inspiration – help them find and fall in love with a shortlist of trips from among 200+ unique adventures
- Information – give them what they need to choose one trip
- Reassurance – help them get comfortable with all the details and logistics beyond the trip it
The teams have a high amount of ownership, autonomy and agency, and are expected to use this latitude wisely. We have recently been working highly collaboratively in one-week sprints, shipping multiple A/B tests. While this will continue, there will also be scope for larger and more strategic product initiatives, including the development of a native mobile app.
What You’ll Do
You’ll be responsible for all aspects of the product design – researching, conceiving, prototyping, presenting and designing multiple options for high-quality product experiences that solve real customer and business problems. We don’t do “hand-offs”, so you’ll be deeply involved across the product lifecycle and expected to wear many hats.
Your Responsibilities
- Develop a deep, nuanced and multi-faceted understanding of MBA, our customers, user experiences, values and expanding range of adventures around the world
- Positively influence our product direction by designing industry-leading software experiences that evolve and innovate on our existing UI, UX, and brand foundations

- Demonstrate an extremely high level of ownership, standards, velocity, and drive with a bias for action
- Consistently design and deliver high-quality UIs that raise the standard for what good design looks like at MBA
- Participate in design reviews and share your work regularly with the company leadership
- Drive and support UX research projects
- You will also help us develop our first mobile app, so native app design experience is a must
