Collectively, we’ve shaped and defined the experiences across category-defining SaaS tools, scaled global systems, and built high-performing teams that elevate the impact and culture of design across organizations.

About the role:
Apollo is hiring a Senior Service Designer to help operationalize and scale our end-to-end customer journeys across products, systems, and teams.
This role focuses on making journeys real in day-to-day product development. You’ll work closely with a Staff Service Designer and the Journey Management Tiger Team to maintain living journey maps, run journey-based working groups, and embed service thinking into how squads plan, design, and deliver.
This is a highly collaborative, hands-on role for someone who thrives at the intersection of design, operations, and cross-functional facilitation.
Responsibilities:
- Maintain and evolve living journey maps and service blueprints, ensuring they reflect real product delivery, customer insights, and business priorities.
- Facilitate journey-based working groups to align cross-functional teams on shared outcomes, dependencies, and end-to-end customer success.
- Partner with product squads on high-impact initiatives to frame problems through a journey lens and identify moments that matter.
- Surface and document cross-squad dependencies, handoffs, and risks, helping teams address them earlier in the delivery process.
- Connect qualitative and quantitative insights to journey artifacts, keeping journeys grounded in real customer and usage signals.
- Support adoption of journey-first ways of working by creating lightweight templates, playbooks, and guidance for teams.
- Collaborate with the Journey Management Tiger Team and Design System partners to ensure journey insights inform shared patterns, guardrails, and system evolution.
- Track journey health over time and contribute to quarterly reviews that highlight progress, gaps, and opportunities for improvement.
- 6–8+ years of experience in UX, product, or service design, with 2+ years focused on service design, systems thinking, or journey-level work.
- Strong hands-on experience creating and maintaining journey maps, service blueprints, and ecosystem diagrams.
- Demonstrated ability to operate within complex, cross-functional environments, coordinating across product, design, engineering, research, and operations.
- Experience facilitating workshops, working groups, and alignment sessions with diverse stakeholders.
- Comfort embedding with product teams and influencing outcomes without direct ownership.
- Strong synthesis skills—able to connect research, metrics, and delivery insights into clear journey-level narratives.
- Excellent visual communication skills and fluency with tools like Figma, FigJam, Miro, or similar.
- Pragmatic mindset: able to balance rigor with speed and adapt artifacts to real delivery constraints.
- Clear communicator with the ability to build trust and momentum across teams.
Bonus
- Experience in B2B SaaS or enterprise software.
- Familiarity with GTM, sales, or workflow systems.
- Exposure to AI-driven or automated service experiences.
