## Description

Via is a global leader in smart transportation, using technology to transform how people move through cities and communities around the world. Our impact ranges from improving individual daily journeys to helping cities operate more efficiently, accessibly, and equitably. We’re driven by ambitious goals and complex problems with real-world impact. 
 We’re looking for a Principal Product Designer to help shape the future of Via’s Transit Operations platform - leading a core product area that powers how transit agencies manage and operate their services every day.
 This is a senior individual contributor role for a designer who thrives on complexity. You’ll take on some of the most challenging areas of our operations platform: deeply interconnected workflows, information-dense systems, and products used for hours every day by dispatchers and transit operators to make decisions that directly impact riders and drivers.
 As a Principal Product Designer, you’ll bring exceptional product judgment, systems thinking, and craft. You’ll turn ambiguity into clear product direction and carry that direction through execution in close partnership with Product, Engineering, and leadership. Your influence will extend beyond the work you directly own - helping establish patterns, challenge assumptions, and raise the quality and coherence of the broader Transit Operations experience and Design organization.
 What you’ll do: 
• Lead design for complex and strategic areas of Via’s Transit Operations product, setting direction across interconnected workflows and creating coherent, scalable exper
