• Our Team & Culture

We’re a lean but ambitious team of ~85 spread across the globe (UK, Europe & North America). We may be geographically spread out, but we’re tied by our mission to radically change how teams communicate ideas spatially and expressively from anywhere.

Our focus is on output and getting the work done, not counting the hours you work. We appreciate that everyone has their own optimum setup, and so provide flexibility in terms of when and where you get work done.

About the Role:

We are looking for an experienced, passionate and detail oriented Product Designer who will work on the UX/UI on the collaboration experiences of Gravity Sketch across virtual reality and web. The role will focus on working very closely with our engineers and UX researchers to ensure the user’s journey through our product ecosystem is a great experience. At the core, the role will involve proactively identifying and addressing problems to be solved, championing the needs of the users in context of Gravity Sketch’s design philosophy, and creating exceptional user-centric experiences.

It’s an exciting time to join the company: following our recent Series A round we are in growth mode, and are seeing rapid expansion of use cases, industries, and personas that we are solving for. You’d be joining a currently small but nimble team of designers, and therefore the ability to work autonomously and take ownership is critical - but this also means there is space to help lay down the foundations and define the design culture at Gravity Sketch.

Responsibilities

• Leading and driving the user-centered product design process
• Utilizing user research findings in the design process
• Collaborating closely with our engineers throughout the product development process
• Advocating for our users and ensure that we provide the delightful user experience
• Effectively communicating ideas at all stages with documents, mockups, or visualizations

Requirements

• Having a strong portfolio showcasing user-centered designs for web, desktop, and mobile
• Considerable experience working as a UX/UI or Product Designer, covering the end-to-end product design process for software/web applications such as communication and collaboration-focused tools, dashboards, and file managers.
• Experience within a SaaS company is preferred.
• Able to work autonomously within cross-functional teams of designers, UX researchers, engineers
• Comfortable generating wireframes and prototypes through design tools such as Figma and the Adobe suite
• Strong communication skills for working with a remote/hybrid team
• Passion for technology, design and web-based applications
• Nice to have 3D or spatial design working experience
• Please note we will need a portfolio submitted in order to review your application.

This role can be fully remote (within +/- 4hrs of UK timezone), and we also have our office in Brixton, London, which you are welcome to use as much or little as suits you best.

Benefits

• £1,000 personal budget per year for professional development. You will learn a lot here but there may be more want or need. With this budget, we aim to support you in your career growth.

• Socials, ski trips & a biannual global meet up: we are passionate about bringing everyone together whenever we can, this helps build tighter bonds and alignment.
