Senior Product Designer @Duffel

View department →

Duffel is a YC-backed B2B travel startup powering products for companies like Ramp, Rippling and Bilt.As the sole product designer, I own the end-to-end design function - setting processes, building the design system, defining direction across multiple products, and working across product, engineering, and leadership to establish design as a strategic practice.I\'ve shaped Duffel\'s evolution from a booking platform into a full travel operations platform - redesigning the consumer booking experience, designing the agent workspace and support tooling, and leading the vision for an AI-powered travel support assistant the team is building toward today.
