Senior Product Designer

Why join Willa?

Do you want to have a massive impact on the lives of millions? Do you think freelancers deserve a functional work-life balance? Yes? Then don't stop reading.

This is an opportunity to step into, and shape, an inspiring role. And the career outlook is great—as in, we're growing-really-really-fast great. A few reasons for this are: our company structure is flat, we value transparency, and consider each member of the team an integral part of our overall success. It’s very a three-musketeers approach (one for all, and all for one vibe).

We love The Office, but we don't love the office, which is why Willa is a remote company. Most of us work from home, some work from co-working spaces.
