Design is integral to Fleetio’s culture and how we build products together. One of our core beliefs as a company is “Design is an important part of everything we do.”

We’re adding another talented Product Designer to our growing Product Design team to help us continue to build remarkable software. As a Product Designer at Fleetio, you will create intuitive, innovative, and, most importantly, useful software interfaces that our customers will love to use. You will rely on user-centered design principles to produce high-quality visuals from concept to execution and craft new solutions for complex problems. You will collaborate with other product designers, engineers, and product managers to continually refine and iterate the Fleetio design language system.

If you are a creative, driven, and passionate designer who intentionally puts yourself in customers’ shoes and thinks deeply about improving their experience, we would love to hear from you!

Fleetio (pronounced “flee-tee-oh”) is a leading provider of fleet management SaaS that helps organizations of all sizes track, analyze, automate, and manage their vehicles and equipment.

We have over 200 employees all over the United States, Canada, and Mexico, and have over 5000 paying customers in 70+ countries.

We’re building the fleet management platform of the future – the single screen for fleet managers to drive their businesses forward.

  • Collaborate closely with product, design, engineering, and marketing teams to solve complex problems, humanize product ideas and develop these ideas into modern and intuitive application designs and features
