This will be a remote role to start, with plans to transition to hybrid
in-office 2x/week located in downtown Toronto.
With millions of diners, 60,000+ restaurant partners and 25+ years of
experience, OpenTable, part of Booking Holdings, Inc. (NASDAQ: BKNG), is an
industry leader with a passion for helping restaurants thrive. Our world-class
technology empowers restaurants to focus on what matters most – their team,
their guests, and their bottom line – while enabling diners to discover and book
the perfect restaurant for every occasion.
Every employee at OpenTable has a tangible impact on what we do and how we do
it. You’ll also be part of a global team and its portfolio of metasearch brands.
Hospitality is all about taking care of others, and it defines our culture.
In this role, you will:
Lead product design on our consumer growth team & work closely with a global
team of product managers, product & brand designers, engineers and data
scientists, to define our strategy and drive the future of OpenTable’s customer
experience!
The Product Design Lead will build impactful user experiences that delight
customers and drive our business forward, evolve, and develop new experiences
while balancing the needs of our diners, restaurants, and the business.
This individual will collaborate with other designers whilst navigating the full
range of a product designer’s work—from research to high-fidelity designs. On
some days you’ll be sketching ideas and launching experiments as A/B tests, and
on others, conducting a customer interview or running a team workshop.
Additionally, you’ll be a part of our UX leadership team and manage a small
product design team, where you’ll have the opportunity to mentor and grow your
fellow designers.
