Senior Product Designer

We are looking for a Senior Product Designer to join our Amsterdam office that has been officially certified as a Great Place to Work to produce user-centric digital products that have great visual taste and bring about empathy and connection. You will lead pitches to establish trusting relationships with our global clients like adidas, HBO, Liverpool FC, KLM, Rovio while also building a collaborative and creative learning environment within the team.

You will be working side-by-side with some of the most talented full-stack engineers in a small autonomous team, collaborating with our clients to define, design, and build their core digital products. In addition to executing thoughtful features and great interfaces, you will co-create the vision, strategy, and priorities for a product together with the client and your team.

You might spend your days:

• Making sense of our clients’ business challenges and their users’ behavior, and turning your understanding into great designs that benefit them both.

• Working with our design community to continue building an ambitious, inclusive, and collaborative design culture.

• Acting as a central part in our small autonomous teams, facilitating ways of working within the team, and making sure the project is efficiently meeting our client’s needs.

• Building and nurturing relationships with our clients’ teams, decision makers, and leadership – helping the client evolve their ways of working along the way and deepening our collaboration.

Salary range: €40.000 – 70.000 per year (incl. holiday allowance)

Here’s what we care about:

• You have a broad understanding of the kind of work it takes to build great digital products and fantastic customer experiences.

• You’re a specialist in at least one area. It could be unpacking problems, executing pixel perfect interfaces, talking with users, or anything in between.  

• You’ve seen a range of projects as a designer, with experience from several products from different industries and scales. This may have taken you 5+ years of real-world work experience, or maybe you’ve gotten a lot done in a shorter period.

• You think that collaborating closely with everyone involved in building the product makes great products, and you believe that good and open communication is key to solving most challenges.

• Working effectively with your team is something you enjoy putting thought into. You may have explored popular methodologies (keywords: Kanban, Agile, Lean, Scrum) in search of better ways of working.

• Your natural curiosity about clients, their business challenges, and end-users, and ability to build good, long-lasting relationships with clients.

• You’re excited about responsibility and being able to shape your career development path, while hopefully teaching your peers a thing or two. We hope you have a vision of what you’d like to achieve, and you feel passionate about being an active participant in the wider Reaktor community.

If reading this gave you butterflies, we hope you apply, no matter what your path here was. We hope you can join our community where we can shape our paths into new domains, together. Tell us about your past adventures in the world of design, and let us know what you’d love to do in the future. Keep it original rather than official.

If you’re not based in Amsterdam, no worries. What’s important is that you’d be willing to come join us. To make sure we’re a home for top talent like you, we offer a nice relocation package, as well as all the help and advice you need in moving over. We’re a diverse bunch, but for the record, we stick to English around the office and with our clients.
