Senior UX/UI Designer
The role
This is not a job for a generalist. We need someone who lives and breathes the accommodation booking journey, who knows what friction looks like for a traveller comparing a direct booking with Booking.com, and who can translate that insight into interfaces that convert.
You'll work closely with product and engineering across the full Roomstay platform contributing to UX strategy, shaping flows, and delivering UI that's pixel-perfect and intentional at every breakpoint. You'll pick up briefs independently, ask the right questions upfront, and produce work that holds up to scrutiny.
What you'll work on
Booking engine UI
Guest-facing flows, room selection, rate comparison, and checkout — optimised to convert at every step
Reporting dashboards
Property management tools, rate and availability controls, analytics, and reporting interfaces
Design system
Contributing to a scalable component library across web and mobile breakpoints
New features and experiments
Rapid prototyping and A/B test design for conversion-led product initiatives
What we're looking for
Must-haves
Accommodation or travel tech background. You've worked on a hotel, OTA, short-stay, or travel booking product. You know why a guest abandons. You understand rate logic, room categories, and the booking funnel intuitively.
Pixel-perfect UI execution. Your Figma files are clean, your asthetic is deliberate, your components are named and nested properly. You don't ship "close enough".
Cutting-edge design sensibility. Your references aren't from 2020. You're across what's emerging in product design — motion, micro-interaction, layout, typography and you bring informed opinions, not trends for trends' sake.
Strong UX reasoning. You can contribute to flow architecture and present rationale. You ask clarifying questions before diving in, not after.
Brief-driven and self-directed. You can take a written brief, interpret it, and return high-quality work without hand-holding. You flag blockers early and manage your own time.
Figma proficiency. Auto-layout, variables, components, prototyping all second nature. Dev-handoff-ready files as standard.
Bonus
Experience with booking engine, PMS, or channel manager products (Siteminder, Opera, MEWS etc.)
Understanding of conversion rate optimisation and A/B testing in e-commerce or booking contexts
Front-end awareness (HTML/CSS) — can gut-check what's buildable
Experience designing for B2B SaaS dashboards as well as consumer-facing interfaces
Motion and animation design for UI feedback and micro-interactions
How we work
We're a senior team that moves fast. There are no layers you'll work directly with product and engineering, with short feedback loops and clear briefs. We care about quality and turnaround, not hours logged.
This role is remote-first with flexible hours. We operate primarily across APAC and EMEA time zones, so some overlap is expected.
To apply
Show us work from the travel or accommodation space - if it's not in your portfolio, tell us about it. Case studies over static screens, but we'll take both.
No recruiters. No spec work requests. If we like what we see, we'll set up a short call within a few days.
