Pupil’s technology ecosystem covers touchpoints from spatial data acquisition through internal tools to property listings and next-generation, guaranteed accurate floor plans.

You will be placing our users’ needs and behaviours at the forefront of your work, ensuring that the experience they have when using our products is efficient, coherent and delights. You are comfortable growing and maintaining our design libraries for complex products across every platform and flexible enough to shift focus as needed. You will work closely with our UX team, understanding the users’ needs at every stage of development, maintaining their experience at the heart of our product in your design work.
You have an interest or experience in the property, interiors, or spatial data world. You are a strong work ethic willing to put in the hours for a career-defining chapter during a critical growth stage for a truly exciting startup.
