Hotel Tonight Starts and Ends with Great Products

At Hotel Tonight, we take enormous pride in the product experiences we deliver to both customers and hotel partners. We build amazing products by questioning the standard way of doing things. We are looking for an outstanding product designer who shares our passion for beautiful, practical products that earn raves from our peers and our customers.

You may have seen our apps (or even booked a hotel through them!), but you should know that we're far more than an app developer. Because we've built the world’s first mobile-only online travel agency, there's a lot of code behind the scenes to process transactions, interface with hotels and determine which ones go on sale each day.

Every day, the team faces the challenges of scaling to support our increased booking volume, building a unified global platform and adapting to the newest mobile technologies, all while keeping our apps fast and our UX clean and simple. To accomplish this, we utilize whatever technology is best to solve a particular problem, not necessarily the one we're currently using.

What You'll Do

  • Create iconic memorable visual designs - ones that others will want to emulate - while keeping the product true to our core product values of Simplicity, Beauty & Fscking Usefulness.

What We're Looking for in You

  • Ability to create amazing interaction design and visual design. You have worked on apps in the App Store or Android Market and they have stellar reviews.
  • A passion for mobile products, great design, and breaking the rules to in order to make things better for the customer.
  • Damn opinionated. If something isn't up to our level of quality, even if it's not what you’re working on directly, we expect you to make a stink and help us improve it.
  • Independent and product-focused. We expect our developers to also define big portions of the products they build. If you want to be handed a complete product spec on your first day, you'd probably be happier working elsewhere.

What you'll get from us

  • An opportunity to define mobile commerce and change the way people book travel.
  • Camaraderie of a great team that works incessantly to build the next great online travel company.
  • Great SF office location at 2nd and Mission. (If you don’t live in SF,we’ll move you here.)
  • Great perks: Annual travel stipend, money to buy mobile devices and customize your desk/rig, unlimited coffee and snacks, and a gong (that you’ll get to bang when you ship something amazing.)
