SessionLab is the leading platform for workshop facilitation and process design. Too much time is wasted in poorly planned and badly facilitated meetings and workshops, and we are working to empower people to design and run better workshops.
More than 90.000 professionals, many of whom are designers, use our Software-as-a-Service product and we are proud to receive regular praise from our customers.
We are looking for a Senior Product Designer to help us create rewarding experiences for our customers.
You’ll be our main designer, working with our CTO, product owner and developers to take our product UX and design to the next level. You will be participating in all stages of the design process and will have a real impact on the product.
We are a bootstrapped software business, headquartered in Tallinn, Estonia, and working across Europe with a fully remote 6-person team (team members currently in Sweden, Hungary, UK, Russia, Spain and Croatia). Therefore, we are looking for somebody who is self-motivated, independent and who ideally has previous remote working experience.
- You have experience working on modern collaborative web applications and building a design system for them.
- You are a generalist with a wide set of design skills including user experience design, user interface design, information design and visual design (the order we’ve listed these skills here indicates our priorities).
- You understand technical constraints, their impact, and can adjust your design approach accordingly. You enjoy the problem solving aspects of complex design challenges.
- You are able to break down complex new designs into smaller design improvements that can be applied gradually instead of having one big release.
- You seek to take on responsibilities and take ownership of the work you do.
- You thrive working independently, but also enjoy collaborating with people from different disciplines and you always try to look at the big picture.
- You are good at communicating with people from various backgrounds (e.g. developers, marketers, end-users).
- Ability to navigate in the entire product development process, from discovery through to delivery and monitoring of the implemented solution.
- You are an expert at using Figma (or similar tool) to create clean designs and use them to gather feedback and as part of the specs for the developers.
- Experience working remotely.
- You are based within the time zones of UTC-3 to UTC+3.
- Any prior experience with workshop facilitation.
- Previous experience with SaaS products.
- Experience or interest in product management.
- UX copywriting experience.
To give you an honest perspective of where we are now:
In the early years we had built SessionLab without an experienced designer on our team.
During the past year we started to gradually decrease our design debt and enhance the UX, but there is a lot more we want to improve.
We’re looking for someone to take ownership of our product design and make sure that we ship consistently good UX to our customers as we build the product further and continue our redesign efforts.
In more practical terms:
- Collaboratively develop, implement and lead an effective design process.
- Continue our redesign efforts with the goal of building a fresh UX and modern UI design system.
- Conduct user research to gain a good understanding of our users.
- Work with our CTO, developers and product owner to create elegant and thoughtful designs based on user needs and technical constraints.
- Design new features and improve the overall UX of the application.
- Develop coherent visual and design guidelines.
- Working with our marketing team on improving UX of our public content (website, promotional materials, social media pages).
- Design production-ready assets and materials, including icons, landing pages, digital ad creatives.
- Opportunity to get involved early in building and scaling a digital product. As the first dedicated designer on the team, you will take the lead and full overview of our design process.
- Your role and responsibility will be growing as our company grows.
- Work remotely and create your own schedule (we believe in trust and autonomy).
- Stable working environment that values work-life balance.
- Motivated co-workers.
- You will also have a chance to travel a couple of times per year to live company meetings.
- Open-minded working culture where we encourage sharing opinions and feedback.
- You are passionate about creating great user experiences 🙂
The budgeted compensation range for this role is between €60,000 to €84,000 annually on B2B contract or matching gross salary as an employee (official employment status only available in certain countries). The actual compensation offered to a successful candidate will be based on relative experience and skills.
The compensation includes 20 calendar days per year plus your local holidays as paid time off, and additional remote working or home office setup support.
You will develop a solution to a real-life challenge and collaborate with our team over email/Slack/video.)
