Job Description

We’re looking to add a Product Designer to our Product team. This new team member will be instrumental to achieve our goal as we continue to make the retail world a better, more sustainable place.

At Nextail, we empower retailers to create better experiences while using fewer of the world's resources. The cloud-based platform uses artificial intelligence, prescriptive analytics, and optimization to deliver agile merchandising decisions. We are leaders within fashion merchandising execution, and major brands, like Versace, River Island, and Pepe Jeans, are enjoying the benefits of agile retail on their business.

The role requires a love for product strategy, technology, user experience, and visual design, along with a systemic forward-thinking approach and an understanding of the retail sector. The new team member will be instrumental in scaling Nextail’s product roadmap in order to drive the exponential growth ahead of us.

Responsibilities

As a Nextail Product Designer, these will be your responsibilities:

  • Lead the way with a purposeful and holistic design strategy.

  • Champion empathy for Nextail users and customers. Applying your critical eye, you will let their needs guide you to the best design solutions, connecting them to our product strategy and product roadmap.

  • Partner with product managers, data scientists, and engineers in an agile, iterative environment, from discovery to delivery, to create innovative design experiences for our customers.

  • Ensure the delivery of a consistent user experience across the product, safeguarding the evolution and maintenance of the product design.

  • Take ownership of your work and responsibility from inception through production, for every detail, every step of the way.

  • Effectively communicate and evangelize design thinking and product culture throughout the organization.

  • Collaborate with other product designers and product managers to evolve and flourish not only our products but also the organization.

In 1 month

  • You will get to know the product, the customers, the users and your colleagues. You will be assigned to a squad and, by working with them, you will get hands-on with the challenges and opportunities to be addressed in your team and the area.

In 3 months

  • You will have a solid understanding of the company. You will know the product inside-out and identify with our users and customers. You will be able to identify improvement areas, propose solutions, and drive many of them. You may be mentoring a more junior member of the team and the rest of the area on design-related topics.

In 6 months

  • You will be totally integrated into Product and you will be driving high-impact decisions. You will lead design within your squad while proactively contributing to the maturity and excellence of the design and product organization.

We offer

  • The disruption of the fashion retail world: We are passionate about better, more sustainable retail and we are here to win it.

  • High flexibility: We are strong believers that what matters most are results. Each Nextailer is empowered, through trust and ownership, to organize their time as they see fit without jeopardizing the time or work of their colleagues.

  • Remote-first philosophy: Nextail started as a remote company and continues to offer a nice mix of remote and/or office-based environments around the world.

  • International environment: We operate across the globe, with recent operations reaching from Europe all the way to Australia, and our team alone consists of professionals of more than 15 different nationalities. While many of us are multilingual, our working language is English.

  • Diversity on all levels: United as a single team, we celebrate diversity at every dimension*. Professionally speaking, are you ready to work alongside tech geniuses, data science magicians, and fashionistas? You’ll have teammates with extensive experience in a wide variety of professional fields, including technology, retail, consulting and entrepreneurship.

  • The laptop of your choice: We want you to work with the tools that are most comfortable for you!

Flexible compensation plan: We offer a fixed + variable salary as well as company equity as we progress towards our Series B fundraising round.

Requirements

  • You have more than 5 years of design experience in a B2B context. You have designed several products using emerging technologies for web and mobile. You are strong on design thinking, user experience and information design. Proven experience in data visualization is certainly a plus.

  • You envision and craft elegant but practical solutions. While creating holistic user experiences, you focus on impact and generating value iteratively. You are used to working as a team with product managers, eevelopers, other designers and even external patterns. Experience working with AI products or data scientists is also an important plus.

  • You constantly sharpen your design instinct by doing research and digging into customer feedback. You are able to formulate hypotheses and design experiments to validate them.

  • You have experience enforcing a robust design quality for our products and concepts. You have a clear definition of good design practices, methodologies and values. You are able coach and equip other designers and product managers, lead the development of strategy and processes and evangelize the organization about the virtues of design.

  • You are able to design and provide strong design direction while ensuring business requirements are met.

  • Fluent in English—you will use it daily.

Application requirements

  • You have an online or PDF portfolio that you can share with us.
