## Job description

At Vio https://www.vio.com/, we believe booking accommodation should feel fair and effortless, never overwhelming or unclear.

As one of the world's fastest-growing travel tech platforms, we help millions of users make smarter travel decisions by comparing stays across 100+ booking sites so that they can find the best place, at the best price, anywhere in the world.

Our goal is to help travelers book like an insider. That means cutting through the noise and complexity of hotel booking and surfacing real value with clarity, transparency, and full support. No tricks. No confusion. Just great stays, booked with confidence.

With operations in 100+ markets and growing fast, our mission is to reshape how people discover and book accommodation through technology that travelers can trust.

🔍 WHO WE'RE LOOKING FOR

We're looking for an exceptional, senior Product Designer to join our Search Squad. Search is your home domain - but we're hiring for range and depth: a full-funnel, end-to-end design thinker who sees the whole journey, from the first search to a confident booking, and who can go deep where it counts - leading deep strategic and psychological explorations of product and brand, not just shipping screens.

You'll be the design owner for some of Vio's highest-traffic surfaces - our Home and Search experience, SEO Landing Pages, and the Search Results Page - continuously optimising and improving the experience across the domain. You'll report into our central Design function, led by our Head of Design and Design Manager, and partner day-to-day with product managers, an Engineering Manager, frontend engineers, product analysts, UX researchers, and content designers. Design at Vio is a strategic function - not just how the product looks, but how it works, feels, and earns traveler trust.

☑️ WHAT YOU'LL DO

- Own product design end-to-end for the Search domain - from problem definition and research through UX/UI, prototyping, validation, and developer handoff - while thinking holistically across the full traveler funnel, not just one surface.

- Go deep where it counts - lead deep strategic and psychological explorations of the product and brand experience, reframing the hardest problems rather than only optimising existing screens.

- Turn business goals, traveler needs, and data into design solutions that help people judge dozens of options in seconds and book with confidence.

- Design and ship optimisations and improvements across the Search experience - quality and trust signals, review clarity, price insights, and helping travelers understand how the Vio ecosystem works - and prove their impact through A/B testing.

- Run your own user research - picking the lightest method that answers the question - and partner with our UX Research function, turning insights into decisions and, where you can, into metrics.

- Prototype first: use competitor benchmarking and prototypes to gather feedback before moving to high-fidelity design.

- Contribute to and build on Atlas, our design system - designing reusable, tokenised, multi-brand components rather than one-offs.

- Raise the bar on design craft across the domain - championing user-centred, evidence-led ways of working and lifting how the whole squad designs.

- Use AI as a tool to work smarter - accelerating ideation, research synthesis, prototyping, and copy/variant exploration.

- Partner closely with product, engineering, analytics, UX research and content to align on direction, trade-offs, and delivery within a two-week cadence.

🔎 WHO YOU ARE

- You have 5+ years designing large-scale, consumer-facing digital products, with a portfolio of shipped work.

- You've owned the full design process - discovery through delivery and iteration - not just handed off mockups, and you think across the whole journey while being able to go deep on the hardest strategic and behavioural problems.

- Your portfolio shows user-centered problem solving and business impact (ideally backed by data or metrics), alongside high-quality UX, UI, interaction, and visual design.

- You're comfortable designing information-dense, fast-decision interfaces such as search, comparison, or e-commerce.

- You design in an experiment-driven way - fluent in how user behaviour is measured across the funnel, motivated by A/B testing, and able to make sound calls when the metrics aren't there yet.

- You can run your own research and synthesise insight into decisions, and you work well with UX researchers.

- You work fluently in Figma and modern prototyping workflows, and you design with and contribute to design systems.

- You actively use AI as a tool in your craft to work faster without dropping quality.

- You bring people with you: you make the case for design decisions with evidence, influence PMs, engineers and senior stakeholders, and stay resilient when you need to hold your ground - and you navigate ambiguity well.

Nice to have: experience in travel/OTA or high-traffic consumer platforms, especially two-sided marketplaces (balancing traveler needs with partner / supply constraints); familiarity with experimentation tools; exposure to multi-brand or white-label design; an interest in designing AI-assisted or conversational experiences (we have a dedicated AI team, so this is a bonus, not a requirement).

❓ WHY JOIN US NOW?

- You'll own design for one of our most important, highest-traffic domains at a pivotal moment for how travelers discover their next stay.

- We're one of the fastest-growing accommodation booking platforms in the world today, having grown our bookings 30x between 2017 and 2025, and catering to the needs of millions of travelers each year. We do that by harnessing the power of advanced algorithms and an innovative suite of product features.

- In 2026, we underwent a company-wide rebrand and launched our first StoryTelling marketing campaign in the UK - the next step in our commitment to help travelers book like insiders, and to establish Vio as a consumer-facing, creative brand.

- The mobile applications (iOS https://apps.apple.com/us/app/vio-com-book-hotel-deals/id1639101398 and Android https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=com.vio.mobileapp&hl=en_US&gl=US) we launched in 2023 have been a big success, reaching 5 million installs and earning strong customer reviews.

- We're a passionate and diverse team of tech enthusiasts and creatives, with a commitment to the traveler above all else.

- We reward our employees for the value they create by granting Stock Appreciation Rights https://medium.com/viodotcom/why-findhotel-offers-share-appreciation-rights-sar-1b688867d8c4 to all employees.

➕ WHAT WE OFFER

- Plenty of chances to learn and grow within an open, diverse culture that promotes knowledge sharing, trust, and transparency.

- A great compensation package, perks, and benefits - including significant stock appreciation rights.

- Flexible time off, with as many holidays as you need, and a chance to work remotely.

- You'll be part of an international team https://medium.com/viodotcom/2021-our-people-in-numbers-b72145c3fa9b in one of the best office locations in Amsterdam.

- We value good food and offer catered lunches from various cuisines, great coffee, and the occasional barbecue in our garden.

- We enjoy getting together to celebrate our wins, with company events in Amsterdam and abroad.

- A budget for your home office.

- Access to free mental health support via OpenUp https://openup.com/.

We encourage people from all ethnic groups, genders, sexualities, ages, and abilities to apply. If this job description resonates with you, we'd love to hear from you.

Please note: Although this role can be remote, we are only considering candidates based in CET +/-3 timezones to optimise team and work alignment.
