We are fixing that. Wander.com is the leading marketplace for exceptional vacation homes with best-in-category guest satisfaction. WanderOS takes that same battle-tested engine and puts it in the hands of every property manager on Earth: conversion-optimized direct booking websites, automated guest marketing, and AI-powered distribution to millions of travelers. Operators own their brand, their bookings, and their guests. No middlemen.\nWander is led by a second-time founder and an all-star team from companies like Shopify. We are a Series B company gearing up for Series C, and product velocity has gone vertical: AI agents, payments, new distribution channels, and performance products, all shipping on a cadence most companies would call impossible. We call it Tuesday.\nOur mission is to help people find their happy place. Our vision is to build the infrastructure for people to experience the world. If you want to make a dent in one of the largest industries on the planet, this is the place.\nAbout the role\nWanderOS (wander.com/os) is the operating system for the businesses that run travel, and it is shipping faster than anything in the category. Direct booking websites, guest messaging, pricing, payments, distribution, and the AI agents that are starting to run operations on behalf of property managers all live in one product. The design bar has to keep up with product velocity, and that is where you come in.\nAs an L6 Senior Product Designer you will own the end-to-end design of core WanderOS workflows, from fuzzy problem to shipped product and the follow-through after launch. You will report directly to Wander's CPO and work shoulder to shoulder with Product, Engineering, and the founder. You sweat the details, you zoom between the holistic view and the operator's view continuously, and you deliver beautiful, useful, usable experiences that people run their businesses on. This is a small team with a huge surface area, so your work will be in front of thousands of operators within weeks, not quarters.\nThis role is remote across the US or Canada. If you are in Austin or San Francisco, we have offices waiting for you (SF is in the Presidio).\nLevel: L6 Senior Product Designer\nYears of experience set the level. This posting is for L6 Senior:\n7 to 8+ years of product design experience shipping software products.\nYou own design end to end: discovery, flows, systems, pixels, and what happens after launch.\nYou navigate high ambiguity, and you mentor mid-level designers.\nIf you have 10 to 13+ years and define strategy across multiple product pillars, apply to our L7 Staff Product Designer posting instead. Title, scope, and compensation are set by level.\nWho you are\nYou have 7 to 8+ years of product design experience, ideally in B2B SaaS, marketplaces, fintech, or operational tools, with a portfolio of shipped products that shows end-to-end ownership, systems thinking, and craft at the pixel level.\nYou have owned at least one complex product or workflow end to end and can show the outcomes.\nYou have a deep technical understanding of how your designs get built. Bonus points if you have built something in code: a side project, a prototype, or a product.\nYou are a systems thinker. You see how the pieces fit together and how an operator's actions play out over weeks and months, not just one screen.\nYou interpret experiments and quantitative data to inform decisions, and you know when to trust the numbers and when to go talk to an operator.\nYou are a practiced communicator and storyteller who can defend a design rationale with reasoning and data.\nYou lead through ambiguity. Give you a messy problem and a deadline and you come back with a plan.\nYou have mentored mid-level designers and raised the bar around you.\nYou have worked with and evolved a design system.\nYou are enthusiastic about using AI to change how products are designed and how operators work.\nYou have deep mastery of Figma and modern prototyping tools, and you adopt new tools fast.\nHardcore. You set a high bar, move fast, and ship.\nWhat the job involves\nOwn the end-to-end design of core WanderOS workflows property managers use every day: onboarding, calendar and reservations, pricing, guest communication, payments, and reporting.\nTurn complex operational problems into simple, fast, obvious interfaces. Our customers run businesses on this software. Every click counts.\nOwn the full process: discovery, flows, wireframes, high-fidelity design, prototypes, and polish through launch.\nShape how AI agents show up inside WanderOS: what they do autonomously, how operators supervise them, and how trust is built and kept.\nAnchor and represent design inside a cross-functional team and take ownership of the design solution for your projects.\nGrow and maintain the WanderOS design system so the team can ship consistently at ludicrous speed, with patterns for responsive web and mobile that scale across new products as they land.\nMentor mid-level designers, give and take critique, and help improve the tools, patterns, and processes the team uses.\nTalk to operators constantly. Run research, synthesize it, and bring the insight back into the roadmap.\nPrototype fast, test with real operators, and ship. We would rather learn in a week than debate for a month.\nCare about outcomes, not just outputs: activation, adoption, retention, and revenue.\nBonus points\nExperience designing AI-powered products or agentic workflows for business users.\nBackground in travel, hospitality, vacation rentals, property management, or other operational SaaS.\nExperience with data-heavy interfaces: dashboards, pricing tools, calendars, or financial products.\nMobile-first design chops and strong knowledge of native app and mobile web patterns.\nCompensation and benefits\nBase salary: $170,000 to $210,000 USD. This is Series B startup market rate for the L6 Senior level, with placement in the range based on experience and location. Canadian offers are calibrated to local market rates.\nMeaningful equity. You will own a piece of what you build.\nHealth, dental, and vision coverage.\nRemote-first across the US and Canada, with offices in Austin, TX and San Francisco (Presidio) if you want a desk.\nApplication process\nOnly applicants who include a design portfolio with their application will be considered. Show us the work.\nJoin us\nYou could spend the next few years moving pixels at a company that ships twice a year. Or you could own the design of the operating system for a $4 trillion industry, at a company that ships every week.
