About Us

Theatr is a community-driven ticket marketplace helping people discover, buy, and sell live performances. We started as a tiny Instagram account (@stooping_theater) in New York’s theater scene and grew into a trusted platform featured by The New York Times, Forbes, NPR, and Vulture.

At our core, we’re building for connection. Live shows, whether a big Broadway musical or an artist’s late-night cabaret, remind us what it feels like to be fully present, to share a moment, to be moved. Even as AI transforms the world, the hunger for real, in-person experiences only gets stronger. We’re here to help people find them.

In just two years, we’ve brought 100K theater and concert lovers together and proven that community-powered discovery can reshape how people experience culture.

Now we’re entering our next chapter, and we’re looking for an experienced product designer who is obsessed with crafting meaningful human experiences and with bringing audiences and artists closer.

About the Role

As our Senior Product Designer, you’ll play a central role in defining how people experience Theatr across both mobile and web.

This isn’t a narrow execution role; you’ll influence product direction, craft the design language, and work closely with the founder and engineering team in a fast, collaborative loop.

Your work will touch the full lifecycle: clarifying problems, generating ideas, building prototypes, and helping ship polished, user-centered features.

If you enjoy designing consumer products that balance clarity, craft, and practicality, you’ll feel at home here.

You Will
• Own design end-to-end: from insights and concepts to prototypes and shipped features.
• Translate ambiguous ideas into clear problem statements and testable design approaches.
• Produce intuitive flows, interactions, and high-fidelity UI/UX in Figma.
• Maintain and evolve Theatr’s design system to ensure consistency and quality.
• Work closely with engineering to ensure smooth execution and measurable impact.
• Use research, data, and competitive insights to identify opportunities and refine designs.
• Run quick experiments, evaluate results, and iterate to improve conversion and engagement.
• Contribute to product discussions and help shape Theatr’s roadmap and long-term direction.

What We’re Looking For
• 3–5 years of product design experience, ideally in a fast-moving environment.
• Strong background in consumer mobile product design, with a portfolio that shows clear thinking and strong visual craft.
• Expertise in Figma; familiarity with modern design tools and AI workflows.
• A proactive, ownership-driven mindset; comfortable navigating ambiguity and driving projects forward.
• Collaborative and low ego; ability to balance user needs, product goals, and business constraints.
• Excellent interaction and visual design skills; attention to detail without slowing momentum.
• Analytical and data-informed approach to design decisions.
• Effective communicator and collaborator with product and engineering.
Bonus:
• Experience in social products, content communities, ticketing, or marketplace design.
• Experience in startups or working with small, focused teams.
• Genuine interest in live shows, arts, and culture.

What We Offer
• Competitive pay + equity + potential CPO in 1 year
• A product with real traction and a highly engaged user base.
• A small, fast-moving team where your work directly shapes the product.
• Opportunity to build core design foundations that will scale with the company.
• Creative ownership and room to grow into leadership roles as Theatr expands.
• The chance to shape how people discover and experience live culture in their cities in the new era.
