Job description

At Neighbor, we’re building the largest hyperlocal marketplace the world has ever seen.

Our marketplace is already flourishing in all 50 states and we’re just getting started! **About the Role** Neighbor is a two-sided marketplace for self storage and vehicle storage. Hosts list everything from garages and driveways to RV pads and commercial facility units, and renters compare options, book, and manage reservations through Neighbor’s website and apps. You’ll report directly to a Co-Founder and our VP of Product & Design, and you’ll set the bar for design craft across the company. That means mentoring Neighbor’s other designers, shaping product direction with PMs and engineers from the first sketch, and making sure real renter insight reaches every team. Renters on Neighbor compare everything from storage facility units to neighborhood garages and RV pads.
