Role
Who you are
- You are skilled at using design to capture ideas, inspire a vision, or ground a conversation. You’re able to use this skill to work with and contribute to design systems
- You are at your best when working independently to explore concepts from beginning to end, while also incorporating feedback by sharing in-progress designs early and often
- You love taking complex ideas and making them easy to understand
- You have a track record of running research to understand users and advocate for their needs
- You bring a proactive and entrepreneurial mindset to getting things done
- You have past experience, or a keen interest in, mapping, GIS, or transportation technology. You might also have an interest in coding, or an understanding for how design insights meld with engineering constraints
What the job involves
- As a Senior Product Designer at Via, you will drive the Remix product experience from inception through execution
- You will take a key role in leading research & design for new product areas, collaborating closely with product managers, engineers, and other cross-functional team members to ensure that Remix helps cities plan and run successful public transportation
- You’ll help design the future of new products and dive deep with our city customers and partners to understand their needs. We succeed when the planners and city officials we work with use Remix to have a greater impact for the public good
- Influence the shape of the product with research and data while executing design work using high quality wireframes, mockups, user journeys, and cross-platform interactive prototypes
- Partner with product, engineering, growth, and success to define goals and process
- Create artifacts that help us shape our vision and roadmap
- Facilitate design thinking sessions with your team
- Advocate for design by sharing your work and presenting cross-functionally, while being able to precisely articulate design rationale
Our take
Via is a world-leading public mobility technology provider, transforming transportation and logistics systems into highly efficient digital networks. Its TransitTech platform powers cost-effective, convenient, and equitable mobility across the globe including public transport, student transport, corporate transport, and paratransit.
The company has two smart go-to-market strategies. First, it licenses the technology to cities wanting on-demand solutions. Secondly, it provides a full solution for operators (such as TfL) including technologies, operations, marketing, and data science. After acquiring Remix, a mapping and transit-planning tool, Via combined the software with its own on-demand transit data to help cities visualize how on-demand services can become part of the public transit system.
With hundreds of partnerships in place, and operating across the globe, Via is committed to revolutionizing the way the world moves. The company has stated plans to go public, but for now, seems focussed on expanding its services - for example with the wheelchair-accessible autonomous shuttle service it launched in partnership with May Mobility. Substantial funds will enable Via to expand its suite of products and improve its services, as well as innovate and accelerate expansion across markets and verticals.
