- Experience working across each design lifecycle stage, from research to ideation to delivery
- A track record of working closely with Product Designers, Product Managers, and Engineers

What the job involves
- We’re looking for a Product Designer to work on QR Code Generator’s Growth and Engagement teams
- This role requires a designer who can collaborate with Product and Engineering partners to understand business, product and user goals, translate them into UX strategy, and execute quickly and with an iterative mindset
- Bring excellent design and problem-solving skills with the ability to execute
- Partner with Product and Engineering leads to identify opportunities, define success, and prioritize requirements
- Help define project scope, work within it, and execute in a timely manner
- Take a data-driven approach toward identifying problems and evaluating solutions

Our take
Bitly provides the service of shortening URLs along with offering link management for companies. Many major companies utilize shorter URLs for branding reasons; for example, Pepsi uses pep.si.
Shortened URLs have become big business, and competition in the space comes from the likes of TinyURL, along with Rebrandly and BL.INK. Bitly, that was majority purchased by Spectrum Equity for $63 million in 2017, has raised massive amounts of funding and achieved impressive annual revenues, and certainly seems to have established itself as a credible business in the market.
After acquiring leading QR code platform Egoditor and its flagship site QR Code Generator in 2021, Bitly has embarked upon rapid expansion, and added to the pool of talent across the business. For now, the company's focus seems to be on growing its global SaaS footprint; targeting QR Codes, link-in-bio, and link management.
