Product Designer

As part of the company 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're looking for someone who is curious, hungry to learn, and excited to work on real products that touch millions of lives every day. You'll work closely with senior designers, product managers, and engineers to help ship thoughtful, user-centered experiences. You'll have support, but also real ownership, because we believe the best way to grow is by doing. If you're someone who takes pride in the details, welcomes feedback, and cares deeply about the people using the products you build, we'd love to meet you.
