Product Designer

About PoloTab

At PoloTab, we're building the technology that powers the next generation of restaurants across Latin America.

Restaurants are incredibly complex businesses, yet much of the technology available to them is fragmented, outdated, or unnecessarily difficult to use. We're changing that by building an integrated platform that helps restaurants operate more efficiently, serve their customers better, and grow their businesses.

From point-of-sale systems and payments to kitchen operations, inventory, and business management, we're building products that restaurant teams rely on every single day.

We're a fast-growing, YC-backed startup with ambitious goals and a team that cares deeply about building exceptional products.

About the Role

We're looking for a Product Designer who thinks like a Product Manager and executes like a world-class designer.

At Polo, we don't have a traditional product organization where Product Managers define requirements, designers create mockups, and engineers implement them.

Instead, our Product Designers and Product Engineers share ownership of the product. Together, they identify problems, talk to customers, define solutions, prioritize opportunities, and ship improvements.

As a Product Designer, you won't simply receive tickets asking you to design a screen. You'll be expected to understand our customers, challenge assumptions, identify opportunities, and help decide what we should build—and what we shouldn't.

You'll own the design process from discovery through implementation, working closely with engineers to turn complex operational challenges into intuitive, thoughtful, and delightful experiences.

This is a hands-on role with real ownership, high autonomy, and direct impact on thousands of people using our products every day.

What You'll Do

Own Product Problems, Not Just Designs

• Work directly with customers, restaurant operators, and internal teams to understand their workflows, frustrations, and needs.

• Identify product opportunities, define problems, and help prioritize what we build.

• Challenge feature requests and dig deeper to understand the underlying customer problem.

• Collaborate with Product Engineers to define product requirements, scope solutions, and make tradeoffs.

• Think critically about business impact, technical feasibility, and user experience when making decisions.

• Follow your work beyond launch, learning from customer feedback and product usage to continuously improve the experience.
