Product Designer

Job description

As part of the Delivery Hero network, talabat is the pioneer of the online food ordering industry in the Middle East. We're on a mission to become one of the most "Experience-first" companies in the region, and we're looking for a Product Designer to grow with us. We are looking for a Product Designer who is passionate about building intuitive, scalable, and user-centered digital products. At the IC2 level, you have moved beyond basic execution and entry-level support.

You take autonomous ownership of feature-level end-to-end design within your product squad. You partner comfortably with Product Managers and Engineers to navigate complex interaction problems, leverage user data, and contribute directly to feature-level strategy and delivery. If you thrive in an agile, fast-paced environment, love turning user insights into elegant interface solutions, and want to build products used by millions of people daily, we’d love to meet you!

What’s On Your Plate?

End-to-End Execution

Own the full design lifecycle for feature initiatives—from discovery and user research to wireframing, interactive prototyping, and pixel-perfect production delivery.

Problem Definition & Framing
