Plant Jammer uses Artificial Intelligence and Gastronomic algorithms to create dynamic and customized recipes. We originally started off as a B2C company with our app "Plant Jammer" (+1 mio downloads) but are now working towards becoming a SaaS B2B company. We work with brands wanting to encourage their end-users to eat in a more sustainable fashion, eg. by making use of the resources they have at home to stop food waste. We're a start-up of 18 employees and we're now looking for our next design hire. Our small design team of one, is looking for an addition to create a new and innovative design process within the company. Are you up for the challenge?
Your role
We're a small company (18 full time) with several projects running in parallel, therefore you'll jump across the various projects where you can apply your design skills. You will work closely with product managers, developers and one other designer. We strive to work as user-centric as possible, which means continuous involvement of our customers and end-users. You will be a part of the whole design process, starting from scratch with a "simple" problem-statement all the way to a final product. You'll carry out common UX-design tasks such as:
Plan and conduct user research
Interpret data and qualitative feedback
Create user journey maps and personas
Determine information architecture and create user flows
Create prototypes and wireframes
Conduct usability testing
We acknowledge that research, design, and UX are usually spread into multiple roles in large companies, but we are looking for a person with wide experience and also see this as an opportunity to have an exciting and diverse job where you get to own design processes end-to-end.
Do you have grit?
Working at Plant Jammer means you have to be flexible and constantly on your toes. You'll experience a lot of sudden changes, and be able to adapt to this. We're looking for someone that can collaborate but also work independently, you take your own initiative and work pro-actively. We don't expect you to know everything, we learn and grow together so that one day we'll have a superhero design team. Currently, we're testing out new ways of working, and we'd love for you to help us find the best design process for us at Plant Jammer.
Requirements / Experience level
At least 1-2 years full time experience in the UX/UI field (important!)
At least BSc. level degree in a relevant field
You have already been part of an end-to-end design process, from research phase to implementation. You have experience with this from a professional setting (i.e. beyond university/educational projects).
Additional bonus points if you:
Turn to Figma whenever in doubt
Have experience from one or several start-ups
What we offer:
We welcome you to work in a fast-paced, inspiring startup with an important vision. We're ready to give you the space it takes to take ownership of our user's experience. We also offer options for remote work several days during a normal 37 hr work week. We are open and honest, and put a lot of energy into building an amazing company.
Our salary budget for this role is 30-35K DKK (we can't afford you beyond this budget - we are a startup)
Office located by the lakes in Copenhagen (once we're back, hopefully soon)
A work computer
Our values:
Perspective: We work for something important: Getting 1bn people to eat differently. However, we don't take ourselves too seriously - say no to ego and yes to playfulness!
Hungry: We are hungry for new learnings, and we vow to challenge our own mental models every day.
Openness: We are open about our own fears, concerns, and insecurities in-front of the team... even when we don't have a fully articulated reason or rationale. Why? We believe being open about things adds to the pool of meaning, leading to better solutions.
Connected: We spend significant individual smart resources on giving transparency to what we do. Why? We believe giving context to our fellow jammers will empower them to help themselves and us better.
