Want to do meaningful design work at a mission-driven company, and have a real impact on the lives of millions of people working in retail? As a Senior Product Designer at Zipline you will do just that – solving complex and interesting problems that help retail workers keep their day on track.
At Zipline, our mission is to bring retail operations out of the dark ages and give companies effective tools that their employees love to use. You will help improve the way that this 4.4 trillion dollar industry communicates with its store employees and save them from sad, slow, inefficient systems (think fax machines, voicemails, and the postal service). People deserve better! We need your help to make this happen.

Typically, we see Zipliners using 15-25 days per year, and it's important to note that time off is not unlimited.

Got More Time, here's more about Zipline!
How do we work? Remotely. We have been 100% remote since the company was founded. We come together as a company every week for our Wednesdays Socials, where the topic can be a classic "Standup" format, a micro learning around burnout and mental health, followed by discussion, or a silly trivia…and anything in between! Some Fridays, we come together to learn from each other. One week it might be about opossum rescue. Another week it might be an update on our product roadmap or the results of our customer satisfaction survey. We are all expert Zoom navigators, and love the freedom of working from anywhere, using technology to connect.
With Zipline, retail employees feel more connected, understand the role they play in the brand's mission, and can feel good about the work they're doing. This is important to us because retail is one of America's most populous workforces but also one of the most underserved. Through Zipline, we can touch on one in four American workers whose jobs and needs are often underrepresented.
We have made incredible progress but changing the industry is hard. We are well funded by leading venture capital firms like Emergence Capital and ready to scale. We need your help to improve the way that this 4.4 trillion dollar industry communicates with its store employees. Cumbersome, slow, and inefficient systems should not be the status quo. Help us retool retail, and Keep Today on Track.
Please let us know you found this position on DesignX Job Board as a way to support us so we can keep fostering this community.
