Product designer
For our client, a pre-seed startup with ambitious plans, we are seeking a highly motivated Designer to join the client team and help shape the future of the company.
You will join our early-stage start-up team as sole designer and will have the opportunity to shape the UX/UI of the product, the design system & design ways of working. The product is in the early stages of discovery to create a product aimed at helping conference producers and influencers.
We’re looking for a motivated, self-starter, with at least 5 years of design experience.
Responsibilities:
Take broad and ambiguous problems and turn them into solution ideas we can test and build to create delightful products.
Drive experimentation and user feedback to rapidly learn and iterate.
Design that is incredibly simple, elegant, and enjoyable to use
Partner closely with product and engineering from concept to launch.
In the earlier stages, your role will be multi-functioning and you can expect to be helping with experimentation strategy and user research.
We work fractionally but want someone who can turn work around rapidly after each test. You’ll likely work 2-3 days a week with a small squad of engineers, some of whom are UK based and some of whom are near shore.
You should consider joining us if:
You are experienced in product design, rapid experimentation, prototyping, data visualisation
You have user research experience.
You value collaboration and are at your best when you are part of a (small) team
You are comfortable with the pace of a fast-moving startup and the ever-changing priorities. In fact, you are more than comfortable, you thrive in it!
You’re not looking for a set of product requirements and a design brief.
You have a diverse portfolio (B2B favoured), across SaaS and Data products, that reflect design excellence, with examples of effective data visualisation designs.
You have empathy for customer needs, but also want to work closely with engineering to understand technical constraints.
You are flexible; we’re a very young startup and you’ll be designing lots of low fidelity things to rapidly test assumptions and hypothesis.
You’re a pro at Figma and have extensive experience with prototyping tools.
Great communication skills whether it be face to face, through video, phone or email.
Smart, inquisitive, and have a willingness to sink your teeth into the role. In particular you should be curious about the best UX for the user – you don’t assume you’re first version design will be anything close to what a user wants.
English fluency is required
We offer
Long-term employment with competitive compensation, based on experience
Possibility to work remotely
An open, transparent and fun work culture
Multi-national team and collaborative work environment
Continuous knowledge sharing with engaged co-workers
