Product Designer - Fully Remote

About us

Electric vehicle sales are surging - over half of new cars sold as of 2030 globally are predicted to be electric. But one of the most challenging elements of owning an electric vehicle is its charging and that s where we come in.

We set up in 2018 to make EV charging simple, green and low cost for drivers, to encourage EV adoption and reduce carbon emissions from transport. Core to our platform is a proprietary smart-charging algorithm, dynamically aligning charging with intermittent low-carbon electricity, reducing carbon emissions from grid electricity by as much as 70%. We've so far secured over 13 million USD in funding, have over 100k drivers using our app, and were named 'Best Energy Startup in the World' when we won the Free Electrons programme.

To achieve all of this, we gathered a great team bringing expertise from their previous roles at National Grid, Bulb, BBOX, Powervault, BCG, Starling, and more. We're now over 70 people working fully remotely across Europe and North America, and pride ourselves on our inclusive and collaborative culture.

We're aiming to have over a million drivers using our product, and we're looking for even more talented and passionate folk to join our mission.

The role

Our Driver team is looking for a hands-on, self-motivated Product Designer to work on our solar product.

We ve developed our solar feature to the point of MVP stage - we re now ready to progress to full development and feature expansion. Launching this product will forge new partnerships that will help us reach hundreds of thousands of customers. This is an exciting time to join a small but rapidly growing team where you will have the opportunity to be involved in all aspects of the product development process.

As our Product Designer, you will be responsible for designing and prototyping new user experiences based on product requirements. Deliverables include design mockups, prototyping, production of visual assets and importantly, the documentation required for proper implementation.

As a key part of our design team you ll flourish in a dynamic start-up environment and adapt to changing priorities and deadlines. You ll be a natural collaborator and an excellent communicator.

You have a keen eye for details and aesthetics, but your strengths lie in distilling complex issues and data, breaking them down into iterations and translating them into clean, simple solutions. You must be a self-starter, able to work independently and perform multiple tasks under minimal supervision.

What will you do?

Design and ship new features end-to-end and drive product improvements
Tackle ambiguous design problems
Work cross-functionally with product managers, engineers and your design peers
Create, collaborate and iterate on design work, from concept to high-fidelity
Translate data-heavy screens into user-friendly interactions
Build a product that our users love

What are we looking for?

A strong command of visual and communication design principles
Fluid written and spoken English, to collaborate with peers across the company
Confidence and skill with Figma, our main design tool
Ability to design app experiences from start to finish
Familiarity with the product development process
Clear and careful annotation skills

We d love to hear from you if you:

Are highly logical, detail-oriented and actively demonstrate that you care about great usability
Are able to function independently and in a team, with excellent collaboration skills
Consider research and validation a key part of product design
Have worked with highly technical products in previous roles
Have an interest in sustainability, green tech or electric vehicle
Have worked with cross-functional teams of engineers and product managers in the past

You don t need to:

Be a master at every design discipline and tool ever invented
Have a website - PDF s or notion pages with case studies including process breakdowns and impact of your work will be fine
Have a professional qualification
Know how to code (but knowing how developers work is key)

Have a specific number of years of experience - but you should be able to demonstrate real-world experience with cross-functional teams building complex products

If you re excited about our company and the role but you feel you don t match the points above perfectly, we still hope you ll apply as soon as possible so we can consider your application!

Your application will not be considered without a portfolio/case study and CV.
