As part of the Delivery Hero network, talabat is the pioneer of the online food ordering industry in the Middle East. We're on a mission to become one of the most "Experience-first" companies in the region, and we're looking for a Product Designer to grow with us. We are looking for a Product Designer who is passionate about building intuitive, scalable, and user-centered digital products.
At the IC2 level, you have moved beyond basic execution and entry-level support. You take autonomous ownership of feature-level end-to-end design within your product squad. You partner comfortably with Product Managers and Engineers to navigate complex interaction problems, leverage user data, and contribute directly to feature-level strategy and delivery.
If you thrive in an agile, fast-paced environment, love turning user insights into elegant interface solutions, and want to build products used by millions of people daily, we'd love to meet you!
What's On Your Plate?
- End-to-End Execution: Own the full design lifecycle for feature initiatives-from discovery and user research to wireframing, interactive prototyping, and pixel-perfect production delivery.
- Problem Definition & Framing: Work directly with your PM and Engineering leads to translate user needs and business requirements into clear, validated design solutions.
- User Research & Insights: Plan and execute evaluative user research (usability testing, user interviews) and utilize quantitative metrics to validate design hypotheses.
- Design System Stewardship: Apply and advocate for our design system consistently across web and mobile experiences. Identify gaps, propose new components, and help evolve system patterns.
- Systems & Edge Case Thinking: Design with a deep understanding of complex backend workflows, edge cases, offline states, and multi-step user journeys.
- Cross-Functional Collaboration: Partner closely with developers during handoff and QA to ensure technical feasibility and craft quality during release.
- Design Advocacy & Communication: Present design solutions, logic, and trade-offs clearly to squad stakeholders, incorporating feedback iteratively.
- Craft & Process Innovation: Participate actively in design critiques, help facilitate ideation workshops, and integrate AI tools to accelerate design workflows.
What Did We Order?
- Education: Bachelor's Degree in Fine Arts, Design, HCI, Visual Communication, or a related field (or equivalent practical experience).
- Experience: 3-4 years of full-time UX/UI design experience in an agile, consumer-facing digital product environment (e-commerce, food delivery, or hyper-scale platforms).
- Portfolio: A strong product design portfolio demonstrating end-to-end problem-solving, UX rationale, edge-case consideration, and polished visual UI execution.
- Tooling Expertise: Advanced proficiency in Figma (component libraries, auto-layout, interactive prototyping) and familiarity with AI design tools.
- Data & Research Competency: Demonstrated experience using qualitative feedback and quantitative metrics (A/B testing, funnels, heatmaps) to guide design iterations.
- Cross-Functional Skills: Solid understanding of technical constraints, design handoff workflows, and collaboration with Product Management and Engineering ("Three-in-a-Box" model).
- Mindset: Autonomous, detail-oriented, open to critique, and driven by a continuous growth mindset.
