• Define and evolve the multi-platform vision for Lime for Business, with a primary focus on employee and rider-facing experiences in the Rider mobile app across key use cases such as commute, business travel, and campus mobility.

• Lead full-cycle user centered design, from discovery and concepting through wireframes, high-fidelity designs, prototyping, and final specs—grounded in user research, business objectives, and technical constraints.

• Partner closely with Product, Engineering and Customer Success Managers to deliver and iterate on cohesive, high-quality mobile experiences that integrate seamlessly with Lime’s existing Rider app architecture, design systems, and performance requirements.

• Collaborate with Operations and Hardware partners to ensure mobile designs align with real-world rider behaviors, fleet availability, and on-the-ground realities.

• Contribute to and extend Lime’s mobile design systems and UX frameworks, ensuring consistency, accessibility, and quality across employee-facing surfaces.

• Influence product strategy through strong design storytelling, clearly articulating user problems, design rationale, trade-offs, and success metrics to cross-functional partners and leadership.

• Help strengthen Lime’s design culture by mentoring peers, advocating for rider-centric decision-making, and raising the bar for mobile UX as Lime for Business scales.

About You:

• 7+ years of experience in crafting, building and shipping quality consumer-facing products across a diverse group of platforms and form factors.

• Expertise in mobile app design & development, preferred expertise in transportation, working with hardware partners.

• Strong proficiency designing across web and multi-platform ecosystems.

• An ability to own and drive the strategy and execution of entire end-to-end product solutions.

• A process that grounds work in user research and considers the context of the user’s experience.

• Meticulous and detail-oriented with an ability to execute at a high level of aesthetic craft.

• Experience working in a very dynamic environment.

• Highly proficient with Figma and iterating quickly as the ideas evolve.

• Experience participating in both foundational and evaluative research.

Preferred Qualifications:

• Entrepreneurial spirit, comfortable in a fast-paced environment with a high degree of autonomy.

• Experience designing 0–1 products or founding design efforts within a new product area or business line.

• Background in transportation, operations, logistics, or marketplace product ecosystems, or in environments that integrate with hardware or IoT devices.

• Experience shaping or leading design systems

• Experience designing internal tools for operators, customer success, or field teams, including workflow optimization and service design.

• Comfortable leading or partnering closely with UX Research across both formative and evaluative research cycles.

• Ability to drive product strategy in addition to execution—framing the problem space, defining end-to-end solutions, and influencing product, engineering, and business stakeholders.

• Demonstrated ability to operate as a senior IC who can grow into a leadership role as the team expands.

• Passion for sustainability, safe mobility, and redefining how people move in cities, with empathy for diverse user groups (riders, employers, operators).

What We Offer

• Comprehensive Health & Wellness: A choice of medical, dental, and vision plans. We also provide company-paid life and disability insurance and company-funded mental health benefits.
