Description

What is Slice?:

Slice is the leading technology and marketing platform made exclusively for local pizzerias, making it super easy to order delicious, authentic local pizza anywhere, anytime.

We serve the $46 billion U.S.

pizza market in two ways:

by providing a pizzazeria-centric mobile and web ordering experience for consumers, and by empowering local restaurants with the technology, tools, and marketing to grow their business, while helping them compete with Big Pizza.

Can you imagine what a small mom and pop pizza shop could achieve with the resources of major chains like Domino's or Pizza Hut?

Slice is hiring a Staff Product Designer to drive design strategy, and execution for the Shop org—a group of folks who create tools that help our partner shops run and grow their businesses.

This includes products that provide owner's access to data, analytics and insights to help them grow their business; that enable in-store staff to manage orders; that run our POS system; and more.

The Shop team creates 1st party solutions for the pizzerias and restaurants we partner with—directly shaping every restaurant owner's experience with Slice to fuel their connection with their customers.

We look forward to hearing from you

Create simple, intuitive, and delightful designs. You'll translate complex ideas into flows and interfaces that customers love, drive strong outcomes for the business, and continuously elevate the quality of our products.

What we're looking for:
