The Opportunity✨

In this role, you’ll join as our second product designer which means you'll play a huge role and get to work on everything design, UX, and brand for Waitwhile. We are looking for a designer who has a balance of great visual design coupled with the ability for storytelling in different formats. 

We’re redefining an age-old idea of waiting in line. There is a lot of work to be done – but our collaborative team of creatives makes the journey thrilling. We’re fast-paced, innovative, and collaborative. We pursue excellence in everything and have a lot of fun along the way. Come join us!

What you'll be doing 🚀
