Lodgify is a fast‑growing scale‑up company leading the vacation rental industry. Backed by $30M in funding, our platform empowers property owners and managers worldwide to efficiently manage and grow their business through technology. Headquartered in Barcelona, we have a team of 380+ people representing over 60 nationalities, united by a passion for transforming the future of short‑term rentals. Role Overview We are looking for a Head of Design to shape the overall quality of Lodgify’s product experience and provide hands‑on design leadership, craft direction, and coaching to our Product Design team. This is a hybrid role, not a purely managerial one: expect hands‑on product experience, along with coaching, rituals, and team leadership. You'll own the product experience layer, turning prioritized customer problems into simple, coherent, high‑quality experiences across the full host journey, including how AI becomes a meaningful part of that experience. You'll report to our Chief Product and Design Officer and work closely with Product Management, Engineering, and Customer Intelligence. Translate prioritized customer problems and business goals into clear product experience direction across Lodgify’s product domains. Personally lead or contribute to strategic, ambiguous, or high‑impact product initiatives — from framing the problem, to prototyping directions, to reviewing detailed design work. Help define how AI becomes part of Lodgify’s product experience, shaping new mental models, workflows, and decision‑support patterns that create real value for hosts. Manage and mentor our Product Design team through regular 1:1s, feedback, and development conversations. Lead and improve design critique, product reviews, and design quality rituals, establishing shared standards for what "good" looks like at Lodgify. Provide guidance and quality direction for our Design System, ensuring it serves as a lever for coherence across product domains. Act as a strategic design partner to Product, Engineering, and company leadership, bringing customer insight and design judgment into complex decisions. Significant experience (10 years plus) designing complex B2B SaaS or workflow‑heavy digital products. Strong hands‑on design capability across UX, interaction design, systems thinking, prototyping, and product strategy. Experience operating at Principal, Staff, Lead, Group Lead, or Head of Design level. A track record of simplifying complex workflows and making difficult product experiences easier to understand and use. Strong product judgment and the ability to connect design decisions to customer outcomes and business impact. Excellent communication skills — you can explain design decisions in business, customer, and product terms, and constructively challenge PMs, engineers, and leaders. Strong coaching and mentorship instincts, even if your formal people‑management experience is still growing. Genuine curiosity about AI‑native product experiences and how AI can reshape workflows and user expectations. Comfort operating in ambiguity, with a pragmatic leadership style suited to a fast‑moving scale‑up. Within your first 6 months, Lodgify’s product experience feels noticeably more coherent across domains, with fewer fragmented workflows and inconsistent patterns. Strategic product initiatives have a stronger, design‑led experience foundation, reflected in clearer usability and research signals. AI‑powered workflows are more clearly defined and genuinely useful to our hosts. The design team is healthier, more capable, and more influential, with clearer expectations, stronger feedback loops, and visible growth in craft and product thinking. You're seen as a trusted design partner within Product Leadership, having measurably raised the quality and consistency of Lodgify’s product experience. What’s in it for you?
