Product Designer
Job Summary
Remote Egypt Full-Time EdTech
What if your next design challenge wasnt another dashboard or marketing page but a product that helps people understand knowledge progression mastery and relationships at scale
Our client is building an education technology platform powered by a knowledge graph and theyre looking for a Product Designer who can turn complex data and technical systems into experiences that feel intuitive purposeful and genuinely enjoyable to use.
This is an opportunity for a designer who wants to work at the intersection of product design data visualization technology and education with meaningful ownership from exploration through production.
Why This Opportunity Matters
The challenge isnt simply to make the platform look polished. Its to make complexity understandable.
Youll help shape how learners educators authors and administrators interact with large amounts of dynamic information. Youll design experiences that remain clear when data is incomplete content varies dramatically in length datasets grow and users move between different levels of detail.
Youll work closely with the Founder and Frontend Engineer giving you direct influence over product direction and the way complex ideas become real usable experiences.
What Youll Own
Youll take ownership of product design across the learner experience administrator and authoring systems and marketing website.
Your work will include:
- Turning complex knowledge graphs and data structures into interfaces that non-technical users can understand confidently.
- Defining information hierarchy interaction patterns responsive behavior visual systems and edge cases.
- Designing meaningful data visualizations for relationships progression mastery trends distributions and comparisons.
- Creating visualization systems where color data encoding legends and navigation remain consistent across different views.
- Designing experiences that work with everything from a handful of items to hundreds or thousands of relationships.
- Accounting for real-world API behavior including missing data long content empty states loading states errors overflow and variable datasets.
- Building scalable design systems with reusable components tokens states variants responsive rules documentation and accessibility considerations.
- Creating rapid interactive prototypes using HTML/CSS/JavaScript Framer or similar tools to validate ideas before implementation.
- Providing clear design annotations and handoffs that engineers can implement asynchronously.
- Collaborating directly with the Founder on product direction and with frontend engineering within a defined API boundary.
- Testing designs with real users and iterating based on evidence rather than internal opinions alone.
Qualifications :
What Makes You Successful
Youll thrive in this role if you combine strong visual judgment with genuine product thinking.
Were particularly interested in designers who:
- Have strong proficiency in Figma and experience designing products that have actually shipped.
- Understand data visualization beyond simply selecting a chart type; you know when a visualization communicates effectively and when it can mislead.
- Have experience with complex visualizations such as network/graph structures multivariate comparisons temporal trends or distributional views.
- Can design for real dynamic content rather than relying on perfectly controlled mock data.
- Think through edge cases and interaction states before engineering has to ask for them.
- Understand responsive design and the realities of constrained hardware and performance environments.
- Have practical knowledge of WCAG AA accessibility standards.
- Are comfortable working with APIs technical constraints and frontend engineers.
- Can prototype with HTML/CSS/JavaScript Framer or similar technologies.
- Care about typography hierarchy density motion color interaction and the details that make a product feel exceptional.
- Validate your work with real users and can explain decisions through user and product outcomes.
A technical frontend creative coding illustration animation photography or visual design background can all be valuable here.
AI & Modern Design Practice
AI is part of the modern design workflow and our client is interested in designers who use it thoughtfully.
You may work with tools such as Cursor ChatGPT GitHub Copilot Claude Midjourney or AI-powered design and prototyping tools.
What matters isnt how many tools youve tried. We want to see how youve used AI to materially improve your speed quality exploration research prototyping or production workflow.

Whats In It For You
This role gives you the opportunity to:
- Own meaningful product design work from early exploration through production.
- Work directly with the Founder and influence product direction.
- Solve genuinely complex problems involving education data visualization and technology.
- Build design systems that need to work in a real API-driven product.
- Work closely with engineering and develop deeper technical fluency.
- Experiment with modern AI-assisted design and prototyping workflows.
- Create experiences that can directly influence how people understand learning and knowledge.
- Continue developing your craft in an environment that values curiosity quality and active participation in the wider design community.
What Were Looking For in Your Portfolio
Your portfolio should demonstrate how you think not just how polished your screens look.
Wed like to see 23 strong case studies showing:
- The problem and constraints.
- Your reasoning and design decisions.
- Your process and iterations.
- The final outcome.
- Impact or results where available.
At least one project should demonstrate meaningful experience with complex data visualization and at least one should show something that actually shippeda live product working application production design system or shipped feature.
Shortlisted candidates will also complete a paid design exercise based on a real product surface including a visualization component.
A Role for Designers Who Care About the Details
This wont be the right environment for someone whose portfolio is primarily polished concept screens animation showcases or dashboards built from default chart components without deeper product thinking.
Its designed for someone who asks:
Where am I What am I looking at What does this mean What should I do next
If you enjoy answering those questions through thoughtful design and want to work on a product where visual craft product thinking data literacy and technical curiosity genuinely matter wed love to see your work.
