Hole19 empowers golfers of all skill levels to perform their best. With over 5 million golfers using Hole19 in over 180 countries and thousands joining every month, we're one of the most-used golf apps on the market.
We've been told our Hole19 product is the golfer's best friend. We believe it's because we're genuinely passionate about building the best technology in golf. We're a tech company at heart, but our mission is to get people outdoors, active, and passionate about sport. If building products that combine technology with an active lifestyle excites you, you'll fit right in. Our mission is clear: Empower golfers with tools. Engage them through community. Excite with experiences.
At Hole19, we're building the app golfers actually open on the course: one hand on the club, the other on their phone, mid-round, in direct sunlight. We have three subscription tiers, onboarding flows that convert, and retention loops that keep golfers coming back season after season.
You'd be joining a small, direct product team where designers own real work, give honest feedback, and ship things they're proud of. You'll work closely with Product and Engineering, challenge assumptions when something doesn't add up, and see your decisions in production — in the pocket of someone walking the 14th fairway in Scotland, Japan, or California.
If you want broad ownership, direct collaboration, and the satisfaction of designing something people genuinely use, this is it.
Four things matter most, and the work shows them.
Critical thinking. You're past the "learning the basics" stage. You work autonomously on defined problems, connect decisions to outcomes, and challenge requests when they don't serve the user or the product. You frame the problem properly before jumping to solutions — that's where your UX rigour shows.
UI craft. You sweat the details — typography, hierarchy, motion — but never lose sight of what the work is actually for. Modern style: clean, current, opinionated. Not generic SaaS.
Mobile-first instincts. You've designed for mobile, not just translated web layouts. You understand touch, one-handed use, performance constraints, and how mobile context (outdoors, mid-task, on the move) changes everything.
AI fluent. You use AI deliberately — to expand what's possible, not to replace your judgment. You have a clear point of view on where it helps and where it doesn't.
Beyond the four: you ship things you're proud of, connect your work to outcomes in every conversation, take feedback directly, and make the people around you a little better just by working alongside them. You're curious about golf and the product. You don't need to play, but you need to care.
