Blinq starts in a uniquely human moment: two people meeting in the real world. We’ve made it effortless to share who you are in that moment. Now we’re exploring how Blinq can help people find the right people, understand the context around a connection, remember who they’ve met and turn first interactions into relationships that actually go somewhere. As a Staff Product Designer, you will shape that future from the ground up, taking complex, ambiguous problems and turning them into products that feel remarkably simple and human. You will work closely with Product, Engineering and our founders, while raising the bar for product thinking and craft across Blinq.\nWhat You’ll Do\nYou’ll join at a stage where some of our most important product questions are still open. You’ll help turn ambiguity into direction, moving between understanding the problem, exploring possibilities and shipping exceptional experiences.\nOwn problems end to end, from framing the opportunity and shaping direction with Product and Engineering, through exploration, prototyping and validation, to holding the experience quality bar through launch.\nShape 0→1 products and interactions across the moments before, during and after people meet.\nPartner deeply with Product and Engineering to challenge assumptions, make smart trade-offs and influence what we build, not just how we build it.\nTurn complicated systems, behaviours and edge cases into experiences that feel simple, intuitive and unmistakably Blinq.\nKnow when to go deep and when to move fast, aligning with the team on what the problem needs, making good decisions with imperfect information and keeping the quality bar high either way.\nWhat You’ll Bring\nA body of work showing meaningful ownership of complex, ambiguous or 0→1 product problems, from early thinking through to launch and impact.\nExceptional visual, product and interaction design craft, backed by the systems thinking needed to make complex products feel simple.\nStrong product judgement and the ability to influence senior Product, Engineering and company leaders through the quality of your thinking.\nComfort operating without a playbook. You’re curious, decisive and energised by finding the problem, challenging assumptions and moving between strategy and pixels.\nLeadership without authority. You create clarity, bring people with you, give useful feedback and make the designers and product teams around you better.","description_format":"text","description_chars":2504,"description_truncated":false,"requirements":{"experience_years_min":null,"management_years_min":null,"team_size_min":null,"manages_managers":false,"education":null,"security_clearance":false,"languages":[]},"benefits":[],"hiring_locations":[{"name":"Australia","iso":"AU","kind":"country"}],"hiring_excludes":[],"relocation_offered":false,"industries":["Enterprise Networks"],"lifecycle":[{"event":"open","at":"2026-09-12T15:02:33Z"}],"visa":[],"liveness":{"score":11,"band":"cold","label":"Long shot","p_open":1,"p_active":0.407,"p_room":0.28,"age_days":206,"expected_fill_days":43,"reasons":["conf:3","win:tail","crowd:"],"computed_at":"2026-11-12T10:38:37Z"},"pay":null,"html_url":"https://alion.io/job/blinq-staff-product-designer","json_url":"https://alion.io/job/blinq-staff-product-designer.json","meta":{"generated_at":"2026-11-13T23:39:46Z","cache_seconds":300,"methodology":"https://alion.io/methodology","terms":"https://alion.io/terms","contact":"https://alion.io/contact","api":"https://alion.io/developers","about":"Alion is a live layer of people, companies and AI agents: who they are, whether they are real and active right now, what they do and how to work with them, readable by people and by agents and paid per call.","catalog":"https://alion.io/catalog.json","usage":{"tier":"crawler_verified","counted_by":"address","units_charged":1,"used_today":47213,"day_limit":null,"remaining_today":null,"minute_limit":300,"resets_at":"2026-11-14T00:00:00Z"}},"offers":[{"id":"company.slices","title":"One company in depth, by slice","status":"live","price":{"credits":0.1,"usd":0.01,"plus_per_slice":{"credits":0.05,"usd":0.005}},"unit":"per company, plus each slice with data","note":"the employer in depth","call":{"mcp_tool":"get_company","arguments":{"id":7831},"rest":"https://alion.io/mcp/rest/get_company?id=7831"},"human":"https://alion.io/catalog?offer=company.slices&for=job%2Fblinq-staff-product-designer"},{"id":"market.stats","title":"A market slice: pay, demand and time to fill","status":"free","price":{"credits":0,"usd":0},"unit":"per slice","note":"pay, demand and time to fill for this role and place","call":{"mcp_tool":"market_stats"},"human":"https://alion.io/catalog?offer=market.stats&for=job%2Fblinq-staff-product-designer"},{"id":"job.search","title":"Open jobs by role, technology, place, pay and visa","status":"live","price":{"credits":0.1,"usd":0.01},"unit":"per posting in a list","note":"similar open postings","call":{"mcp_tool":"search_jobs"},"human":"https://alion.io/catalog?offer=job.search&for=job%2Fblinq-staff-product-designer"},{"id":"company.verify","title":"Is this company real and active right now","status":"pilot","price":null,"unit":"per company","request":{"url":"https://alion.io/catalog/request","method":"POST","body":"{\"offer\": \"company.verify\", \"for\": \"job/blinq-staff-product-designer\", \"note\": \"what you need it for\"}"},"human":"https://alion.io/catalog?offer=company.verify&for=job%2Fblinq-staff-product-designer"}],"agent":{"mcp":"https://alion.io/mcp/jobs","mcp_open":"https://alion.io/mcp/open","next":[{"tool":"get_job","arguments":{"id":827073}},{"tool":"search_jobs","arguments":{"company":"blinqnetworks.com","detail":"compact"}},{"tool":"match_people","arguments":{"job_id":827073},"note":"people open to offers who fit this vacancy"}],"note":"The same data through MCP tools: https://alion.io/mcp/open needs no sign-in (compact searches, postings, people); https://alion.io/mcp with an Alion account has everything.
