About Bounce
At Bounce we’re on a mission to make people’s journeys lighter, because we believe nobody should have to plan their day around their stuff.
We started with the largest luggage storage network on the planet: 35,000+ local businesses across 100+ countries, where travelers drop their bags and get on with their day. Now we’re going further, with luggage delivery and our own 24/7 lockers. Our goal is for “bounce it” to be the first thing people say when they arrive in a new city.
We’re a small, nimble team across Lisbon, San Francisco, and Tokyo. We move fast, test ideas early, and change course when the data tells us to. If you want to make travel lighter for everyone, come build it with us.
We were named the fastest-growing travel company in the US on the 2024 Inc 5000, and we’re backed by leading Silicon Valley investors, including a16z, General Catalyst, and 359 Capital.
About the role
We're looking for a Product Designer to join our design team, working in the Core pod. You'll work across our consumer and partner products (web and mobile), and will own and contribute to the full design process, from early discovery and ideation through to polished, shipping-ready UI.
You'll be embedded in a cross-functional pod with product managers and engineers, working alongside Senior Designers you can bounce ideas off.
The mission
This is an ideal role for someone who's sharp, curious, and ready to grow fast. You'll help shape the experience for both the travelers who book with Bounce and the partners who store their bags, making the marketplace work better for everyone involved.
You won't just be executing tasks. You'll be encouraged to ask questions, challenge assumptions, and develop a strong design voice of your own.
How product gets built at Bounce
We build for our customers and partners first. Technology is how we get there, not the goal.
We work in 1-week cycles, and most projects fit into one or two of them. Each project has one owner, but the whole team pitches in. You'll always need input along the way, and we expect you to ask for it.
This role is for you if you enjoy every part of building a product, not just making things look good. As a small team, we rely on people who can take a problem from discovery to shipped UI. You won't be handed a queue of tickets. You'll help shape what we build and why.

Our core values
Velocity is priority #1. The faster we ship, the faster we learn. One day sooner compounds.
Be experiment-driven. Small hypotheses, small scopes, fast learning.
Freedom with responsibility. You have the freedom to act, and we trust you to do what's best for Bounce.
Own the outcome. Commit to the outcome, not the task.
Think at scale. A small improvement shipped globally can beat a big one in a single city.
Be scrappy. There are no experts, it's just us. If something needs doing, we figure it out.
Strive for feedback. Care personally, challenge directly, and make feedback a habit.
Relationships matter. We genuinely care about the people we work with. We build community, not just collaborate.
