About the role

Full text from the employer, as published on Arbetsförmedlingen (JobTech), arranged into sections. Nothing added or removed.

01Who We Are

We are a well-funded, early-stage technology company on a mission to fundamentally redefine the way the world searches, discovers, and transacts, built on a philosophy that puts the user first at every step.

The user is not simply a means of transaction. They are a valued participant whose data works for them, not against them, enriching their world and their own experience within it, with them retaining full control.

Our mission is underpinned by proprietary, patent-pending technology built on a novel engine and system.

02The Problem You Will Be Solving

The internet was built to inform the many, not to serve the individual. Platforms optimize for engagement, extraction, and consumption at global scale. AI has made this model even more efficient, with the user still largely remaining the input, not the full beneficiary.

The problem is not information. The world has never had more. The problem is that people give away a lifetime of data without receiving the personalized experience it should enable.

People should not have to search. They should simply find.

03Who You Are

• Highly talented and motivated to build products with people, for people

• You thrive in zero-to-one environments and find genuine satisfaction in creating from scratch

• A fast-paced thinker with a relentless desire to learn, improve, and raise the standard around you

• Able to inspire, elevate, and collaborate; you make the people around you better

• A great communicator; you express complex ideas with clarity, precision, and confidence across all levels of the organization

• Able to transform ideas into working systems and technical milestones with light speed and precision

• Highly ambitious and action-driven; you thrive under pressure and find genuine energy in working at the edge of what is considered possible

04What You Will Do

• Define the information architecture for the full consumer platform, ensuring search, discovery, social interaction, and transactional flows form a seamless, unified experience with minimal friction or context switching

• Build comprehensive design systems from foundational principles including component libraries, design tokens, typography, spatial systems, motion, and accessibility standards that scale from early-stage to millions of users

• Design dynamic, AI-powered interfaces that gracefully handle personalized and structurally variable content through robust, flexible design patterns

• Design intuitive search and discovery experiences that make sophisticated platform intelligence feel natural and invisible to the user

• Design complex transactional and booking flows that guide users through multi-step processes with clear state management and recovery paths while hiding underlying complexity

• Establish motion and micro-interaction principles as core product engineering decisions, balancing implementation cost, performance constraints, and user experience quality

05Minimum Qualifications

• 5 or more years of senior product design experience on consumer products used at meaningful scale

• Portfolio that demonstrates consumer product design at an unambiguous level of quality; shipped products that real users interact with daily, designed with evident care for every interaction detail

• Systems-level design practice as a default; designs component libraries, token architectures, and interaction patterns before designing individual screens

• Demonstrated experience designing AI-powered product surfaces with genuine understanding of how dynamic content changes the design problem

06Preferred Qualifications

• Background from a design-forward consumer product company

• Experience establishing a complete design system from zero in a fast-moving environment

• Aesthetic judgment that is strong, distinctive, and consistently defensible under technical and commercial scrutiny

• A track record of delivering complete design systems and end-to-end product flows faster than comparable teams would consider realistic

07What We Offer

Expect the most talented, rigorous, and driven colleagues you have worked with; people who lift each other up and hold each other to the highest standard. This company is driven by ideas and innovation, regardless of age, position, or background. The best ideas must win and the people behind them recognized and rewarded.

A home for exceptional people and geniuses within their domain; those who have always known what they are capable of and have been waiting for the environment to prove it to the world, whilst first being seen and supported by their coworkers.

Compensation includes an attractive salary and meaningful equity ownership for an early-stage startup.

08Equal Opportunity

We are an equal opportunity employer committed to building an inclusive, high-performance culture where everyone can do their best work and reach their full potential. We welcome applicants of all backgrounds and do not discriminate on the basis of race, color, religion, national origin, gender, gender identity or expression, sexual orientation, age, disability, or any other characteristic protected by applicable law.

09Application
