Help make the world more hospitable The hospitality industry is uniquely human, and it deserves technology that’s just as inspiring as the people behind it. At Mews, we’re transforming the industry with a platform that helps hotels run smarter, move faster and create better guest experiences. You’ll work with smart, curious people who care deeply about what they do. You’ll have autonomy and the trust to make good decisions and move quickly. And you’ll enjoy a real sense of purpose as you see the impact of what we’re building. If you’re motivated by ownership, curiosity and meaningful impact, and are driven to deliver consistent high performance, you’ll feel at home here. About the role Let's get into the specifics. It’s impossible to capture every nuance of a role – especially at a rapidly growing company like Mews – but if we had to distil it into a job description (which we do because this is a job description), it would be this: Build and maintain the design foundation that lets multiple product tribes move fast without drifting apart. This role owns the division's design substrate: the design system, cross-tribe agents and skills, research and discovery engines, and the architectural standards that make coherent design possible at scale. The Principal Designer works directly with the VP and partners with Staff Designers across tribes — not to coordinate, but to encode judgment into systems that outlast any single project. The hospitality industry is at an inflection point. Hotels need software that moves as fast as they do, and the design choices made at the system level right now will shape what's possible for every product tribe at Mews for years. What you would do Build and maintain the division's design foundation — the design system, cross-tribe agents and skills, research and discovery engines, design architecture, guidelines, and standards Hold the multi-year view: write clearly about what design across the division will need that it doesn't yet have, and drive towards it with enough conviction to see it through Work with Staff Designers so that tribe-level design substrates compose into a coherent whole rather than a collection of parallel efforts Partner with the VP on the most complex cross-tribe design problems — the ones that don't fit inside any single tribe's scope Encode design judgment into reusable systems — components, tokens, patterns, agents, skills — rather than one-off artifacts that live and die with a single project Contribute craft feedback and calibration input into Director and Staff Designer performance reviews What you would bring A body of shipped, high-quality design work and demonstrable taste — senior enough to be credible across multiple tribes without needing to prove it Multi-year thinking and the ability to encode it into systems and agents that outlast any single initiative Genuine satisfaction in cross-tribe substrate work — the unglamorous problems that don't carry a team's name on them You've gone beyond personal productivity with AI: you've redesigned how you or your team works using AI, built approaches other people can follow, and you attend carefully to what the AI gives you rather than accepting it without scrutiny Ability to operate as a multiplier for a VP without needing the title or formal authority that typically comes with that level of influence Nice to have Experience maintaining a design system used across multiple product teams at significant scale Familiarity with agentic design tooling or building AI skills and research engines Spain €79.500 — €100.500 EUR Czechia 1 491 000 Kč — 2 005 000 Kč CZK UK £81,000 — £106,000 GBP United States $157,000 — $202,000 USD Ireland €91.000 — €117.000 EUR Pay Transparency at Mews Salary ranges are provided in good faith and reflect current
