Role
Who you are
- We’re looking for a Senior Product Designer to join us to make Back Market the most successful destination for buying refurbished
- You demonstrate knowledge in design methods and craft. You have examples where you contributed a successful impact
- You have your ear to the ground regarding new tools and technologies that help our work become more effective and efficient. Oh, and we use Figma by the way
- You have a passion to help our team grow. You can contribute inclusive design practices, are comfortable in voicing your opinion, and love mentoring and coaching others
- You have an attention to detail regarding edge cases, hierarchy, and accessibility
- You are inherently curious, you proactively explore different solutions, you are idealistic but you challenge the status quo responsibility and can always find the middle ground
- You think about interfaces not as static pixels but as dynamic experiences and can express yourself with motion, flows and stories
- You are comfortable designing a global product with local specificities
- You can contribute inclusive design practices and you are comfortable in voicing your opinion
- You are comfortable in communicating professionally in English as we are an international team
- You are interested in products that drive revenue and save the planet (yes we found the magic mix)
Desirable
- Experience working with app engineers, knowledge of Apple and Android design specificities/guidelines
- Experience working with and contributing to a design system
- Experience mentoring and growing junior or mid-level designers - but no line management experience required
What the job involves
- You’ll collaborate with our Product Managers, User Researchers, and Content Designers to bring a plethora of concepts and product evolution, you’ll work on a daily basis with developers to validate the technical feasibility of your proposals and to ensure the fulfillment of your craft, and you’ll also be connected with other Back Markets functions (Marketing, Brand, Business etc.) to help articulate the needs and expectations of the customer and the business
- As a Senior minded designer, you’ll autonomously own the design vision for key areas of our journey and manage the relationships with product squads, business stakeholders, and other designers to deliver impactful results
- You’re at the stage of your career where mentoring and coaching other designers comes naturally to you, and you are considering your growth path either deepening your role as an individual contributor or taking the reins at line management
- Being an equal partner with product managers, content designers, and engineers to build, maintain, and evolve Back Market
- Contributing to the discovery, roadmapping, advocating for the right approach, and delivering a best in class customer experience
- Collaborating with user researchers to bring clarity to ambiguous problems with relevant customer insights, and consulting quantitative and qualitative data to inform your design decisions
- Advocating for and facilitating design methods and tools to help your team deliver solutions that actually work for our customers and business
- Ensuring clarity and comprehension in your or your team’s proposed ideas and solutions from conception to delivery through useful documentation and tidy working practices
- Proactively advocating your impact and autonomously communicating progress, learnings, and goals to the company and beyond
Our take
At a time when new smartphones launch frequently but with fewer new features and when individuals want to contribute to sustainability and the circular economy, Back Market is setting out to provide customers with a viable option of purchasing refurbished electronics goods.
The vision of the company is to become the default choice when it comes to electronics purchases, irrespective of the customers' budget. In order to materialize this vision, Back Market guarantees that all the devices sold on its platform are 100% functional. The company screens sellers before allowing them to join its platform and it monitors their performance in real-time by collecting detailed customer feedback. By doing this, they hope to restore trust in refurbished devices and to make sustainability an easy, safe, and affordable choice.
Back Market operates in 16 counties and has a client roster that includes Netflix, Disney, BBC, Sony, and Apple. The company has raised over $1 billion in capital, which has been invested in expansion across new and current markets.
