Are you the UX Designer we are looking for?

At Refined, we are on a mission to reimagine the user experience for business software to make it accessible to more people, for more purposes. Our product is a site-builder that aggregates features, content and functionality from third-party platforms such as Atlassian and allows our customers to create themed, easy-to-use sites. Today, Refined is commonly used for intranets, service desks, issue trackers, and knowledge bases. We’re deployed at leading companies like Apple, Spotify, Sony Music Entertainment, Airbnb, and PayPal—plus 5,000 others around the world.

We’re hiring an experienced UX Designer to join our growing team and help us drive our next phase of growth. You’ll play a critical role in evolving our product and enable our customers to make the most out of Refined.

The right candidate is a talented UX designer with a dedication to balance good, user-centric design with realistic and technically feasible proposals. Someone who sweats over the small stuff, like the intricacies of design system components, but who never loses sight of the big picture and easily can work at a design strategic level together with product managers and tech leads. To that end, you’ll need to keep your eye on the prize, through multiple iterations or rounds of reviews from fellow designers and product managers. Ultimately, we aim for a delightful, intuitive, effortless, and attractive user interface that helps our customers build better and better sites.

You will be responsible for creating product design deliverables that evolves our product and enables our customers to make the most out of Refined. As a part of an interdisciplinary team, you will keep the users in mind while balancing implementation and business requirements in your design work. Your work will impact thousands of users around the world, ranging from people in tiny start-ups to global enterprises - No one should have to use B2B software that isn’t intuitive and delightful.

At Refined, design is not an afterthought but something we care deeply about - it is not only a selling point for our product, but an integral part of how we develop, deliver and improve our products. This is a phenomenal opportunity for an experienced, self-starting designer to embed into a fast-moving product development team and make significant, daily contributions that directly increases the value for our thousands of customers worldwide.

In your daily work you will:

• Contribute end-to-end, from initial problem framing to final implementation
• Evaluate designs with our users
• Be creative and figure out solutions that our users love
• Use your craftsmanship to create high-quality final design deliverables
• Be systematic and maintain & develop our design systems
• Ensure great design execution in tight sync with PMs and developers

How to succeed in this position?

We are looking for a skilled, senior design professional who has the ability to take ownership of the process from initial problem definitions to final execution. You will rock your tasks if you have:

• 7+ years of experience in UX-design, ideally from a few different software product companies
• Worked with UI-design in production-focused settings (e.g hands-on asset production in a process like Scrum)
• Strong technical proficiency, knowing what it takes to create technically feasible designs
• Created and maintained design systems
• Practical experience of performing user research
• A keen eye for detail and order
• Fluency in modern prototyping and design tools

Why should you join us?

We have an amazing team and great clients, but all of this is possible because of a couple of values we have and share. If these words resonate with you, we are pretty sure that you would love to work with us:

Flexibility: We believe work should fit into the rest of your life and not the other way around.

Fun: We celebrate our successes and host tons of other events like quiz and game nights, table tennis tournaments, theme days, and more.

Inclusion: We have a track record of hiring and promoting the most qualified candidates, regardless of factors like nationality, race, gender, sexual orientation, or religion, which, if you ask us, have no bearing on one’s ability to do the job.

Growth: Our employees grow as we grow. We promote from within, and we’re committed to professional development so you leave us with more knowledge than you came with (but don’t leave us!).

We are good corporate citizens. We’re incredibly proud of the gender balance in our tech team, not to mention our pledge to donate 1% of company profits to charities and nonprofits like Ol Pejeta Conservancy and Cool Earth.

About Refined

We started Refined in 2009 with a simple idea: Enterprise software doesn’t have to be boring. Since then, Refined has evolved from a handy theming tool into a full-fledged site builder, helping more than 5,000 companies worldwide transform their Atlassian Confluence and Jira instances into beautiful, branded sites users love. We credit our can-do mindset, collaborative culture and attention to thoughtful design for getting us this far, but there’s much to be done yet.

We hire ambitious, down-to-earth, solution-oriented people who thrive in collaborative settings. We think empathy and curiosity say as much about a candidate as university credentials, and we weigh ambition as high as we do talent. We believe that the best work happens when people put their heads together without ego or pretense to arrive at clever solutions, so we look for people who have a demonstrated history of getting stuff done in teams.
