About the Role

We're hiring a Senior Product Designer to help liberate the power of the cloud, and build beautiful simple experiences that help businesses across the globe enhance their guest experience, manage their work and employees better, grow and become more compelling.

You'll play a central role in shaping our product experience, working as a true equal with Engineering and Product. This is a role where you will be empowered to have a significant impact.

Why Should You Apply

ROLLER is a remote-first company, and this is a remote job. We have an office in Melbourne where we collaborate - this job is Melbourne based.

Design is central to ROLLER, both as a product and company. Our vision is to help our customers (leisure and attractions businesses) operate more effectively and deliver a better guest experience for their customers.

You'll have the opportunity to work on multiple types of products, from SaaS to eCommerce to CRM and more, with a wide range of complexities. Packaging up all the fantastic things you can do in a way that ANYONE can is a monumental design challenge.

At ~4 Product Designers across 5 different squads, we're small enough that you can still significantly impact the product experience and the creative culture, and we're big enough to have the resources to execute big ideas.

The company is financially strong (we grow and hire mindfully, and we make millions of dollars in recurring revenue, with years of data to prove its durability).

If you want to have the opportunity to work across an whole customer journey and not be confined to a single part of a product, you can do that at ROLLER.
