Job Description

🌍 Redefining how people live

At Blueground, we believe that when your base is reliable, the world opens up. That’s why we’re building the world’s leading platform for living.

Every year, over 350 million people move between cities — yet today’s housing options haven’t kept up with the needs of a modern, mobile generation. Blueground was created to change that.

With 60,000+ homes around the world, available for stays from a few days to a year or more, we’re only just getting started. We’re on an ambitious growth path to redefine living and create an entirely new category. Our edge? Powerful proprietary technology, operational excellence, and a team that moves with speed and discipline.

Our Culture Is Anchored In Five Principles 

✨ Guests First – Every decision starts with their experience.

⚡ Move Fast – We value momentum and action.

🔍 Dive In – The magic is in the details, and we go deep.

🔄 Embrace Change – Change isn’t disruption; it’s how we grow.

🤝 Keep It Honest – Transparency accelerates progress and strengthens relationships.

If you’re ready to do the best work of your life and help reshape how the world lives, we’d love to meet you.

🔑 About the Role

We're looking for a Senior Product Designer & Builder to join the BlueB team and shape the internal tool behind Blueground's operations. Behind the guest's experience is BlueB, Blueground's internal Property Management System, which supports the teams and workflows that enable us to manage homes, bookings, payments and day-to-day operations at scale.

As product design evolves, the boundaries between designing, prototyping and building are becoming increasingly fluid. This remains fundamentally a product design role, centered on product thinking, user experience and design craft. You'll complement these strengths with AI and technical tools to explore ideas, validate interactions and bring solutions closer to the live product.

You'll lead projects across the full product design process, from understanding the problem and validating ideas to designing and supporting the final experience through delivery. Along the way, you'll help evolve our design system and use AI-assisted coding tools to create realistic, functional prototypes that accelerate decision-making and bring design and engineering closer together.

You won't be expected to build complete production features. However, when useful, you may contribute targeted UI enhancements, refine interaction details or help close gaps between the intended design and the experience that ships.

You'll report to the Design Director and work as part of the BlueB product team, collaborating closely with Product Managers, Engineers, operational stakeholders and the wider Product Design team.

What you’ll do 

  • Identify opportunities where design can improve Blueground’s operations and business performance.
  • Lead projects autonomously, turning early briefs into clear, scalable solutions.
  • Simplify complex internal workflows through thoughtful interaction and visual design.
  • Build production-faithful prototypes using Figma and AI-assisted coding tools.
  • Contribute targeted UI improvements directly to the codebase and support implementation through design QA.
  • Evolve Blueprint, our design system, across components, patterns, tokens and documentation.
  • Partner closely with Product, Engineering and operational teams from discovery through delivery.

About you

  • Strong experience designing complex B2B, enterprise or internal products.
  • Excellent product judgment and the ability to connect user needs with business value.
  • Confidence working autonomously and creating structure from ambiguity.
  • Strong interaction and visual design craft, including complex states and data-dense interfaces.
  • Hands-on experience building or scaling design systems.
  • A solid understanding of HTML, CSS and component-based front-end development, enabling effective collaboration with engineers.
  • Experience using AI-assisted tools to build functional prototypes and production UI.
  • A portfolio demonstrating product thinking, systems thinking, strong craft and technical prototyping.

Our tool stack

  • Frontend & System: React, Next.js, Material UI
  • Design: Figma
  • Research & Analytics: Dovetail, Hotjar, Posthog
  • Collaboration & PM: Slack, Jira, Confluence
  • AI tools: Claude, Cursor, etc.

Pay, Perks and Such

  • Competitive salary
  • Flexible paid time off
  • Comprehensive group health insurance
  • Access to training budget and resources
  • Access to premium AI-powered productivity tools (e.g. Cursor, Claude, ChatGPT)
  • Mobile data plan
  • Enhanced parental leave

  • Flexibility to work remotely through our Blueground Nomads mobility program
  • Complimentary accommodation at Blueground locations
  • A culture that embraces Diversity, Equity, and Inclusion at its core
