UI/UX Designer

Overview
Zown streamlines ridehailing pick-ups by assigning each trip a dynamic pin, ensuring passengers and drivers meet at the most efficient location, optimized in real-time.

Our platform allows a property manager to onboard in 5 minutes by inputting potential pick-up locations around their site. Every time a mobility provider receives a trip request from the venue, Zown passes them the optimal pick-up location via API, ensuring its location streamlines the pick-up based on the trip's specific characteristics.

We have secured a pilot with the City of Detroit to use our platform to streamline rezoning requests for food delivery to provide safer and more efficient site operations. We are recruiting a UI/UX designer to hit the ground running and build our MVP into a fully fledged interface to meet the needs of our growing user base.
