Senior Digital Product Designer

Founded in 2016 with only a handful of individuals, Quantexa was built with a purpose that through a greater understanding of context, better decisions can be made. 7=8 years, and 750+ employees later we still believe that today. Quantexa is an established scale-up and leader in the decision intelligence space. Our market leading platform connects billions of data records with Dynamic Entity Resolution and advanced network analysis. This helps our customers uncover hidden risk, reveal new and unexpected opportunities, and enhance decision-making.  

We’re looking for a Digital Product Designer to join our small (but mighty) team and help keep us ahead of the market, joining us through our next stage of growth. You'll be tackling some of the most exciting and complex design challenges of your career alongside a close-knit but distributed design team. 

Our platform is a desktop-like web application, designed to be highly adaptable. We are continually testing, gathering feedback, and iterating the design so that we can improve the user experience. We’re excited to be broadening our reach into new territories and markets with more and more use cases.  

As Digital Product Designers, our purpose is to gain a deep understanding of our end users and their behaviour so that we can deliver tailored solutions that provide context and help with decision making.  

The ideal candidate will have worked on data rich, complex platforms before, and it is important that you help us to realise our vision through good system design. We’re looking for someone who can see the big picture and use their UI, UX and visual design skills to help evolve our products.

• Clearly present detailed prototypes focusing on what might be important for your audience (SMEs, Engineers, Stakeholders) 
• Create interactive prototypes to test your ideas 
• Evolve the Digital Product Design practice at Quantexa and help to establish a design centric approach within the company 

Requirements

The ideal candidate would:

• Be proficient in industry-standard software such as Figma (for prototyping), Photoshop and Illustrator (for asset creation)  
• Be passionate about product design, understanding and solving our customers challenges  
• Be a strong communicator to all levels, from junior developers to senior staff, our customers and end users
