We’re now entering our next chapter — one powered by AI. We’re looking for AI talent: curious problem-solvers who know how to apply AI to build tools, automate workflows, and create real impact. Whether it’s streamlining operations, enhancing customer experience, or reimagining internal systems — we want people who can make Careem work smarter and move faster.About The RoleCareem is the everything app for the greater Middle East - rides, food, groceries, payments and more, serving tens of millions of customers across the region. Design here means working at rare scale and complexity: one experience spanning many verticals, and customers whose day we can genuinely simplify.
We’re looking for a Senior Product Designer to own design for a major area of the super app experience - the level where you’re no longer just executing within a team, but shaping the strategy your team executes. You’ll work with design leadership to set the design vision for your area, drive multiple workstreams in parallel, and be a force multiplier whose influence is felt well beyond your own remit. You’ll work AI-natively: using modern tools to move from intent to high-fidelity, testable design faster, while applying the judgment that decides what’s actually good.
*What You’ll Do: Own the Problem, End to End** Strategic Ownership: Own design for your feature area from concept to launch - defining, designing and iterating experiences that improve user outcomes and move commercial KPIs. * Cross-Functional Collaboration: Drive your product team toward clarity on what you’re building, why, and for whom; operate as a strategic peer to product and engineering leads, proactively identifying and resolving dependencies.
