The Role
Air is looking for a Senior Product Designer to lead the creation of exceptional, user-centered experiences across mobile and web. You’ll be the bridge between vision and execution - working ahead of engineering to translate ambiguous problems into clear, intuitive designs that scale across platforms. By owning the product design process end-to-end, you’ll unlock faster decision-making, reduce bottlenecks, and ensure our product keeps pace with the demands of multiple platforms. Your work will not only elevate our design quality and consistency but also empower the team to take quick, strategic bets that drive measurable impact for our customers and the business.
