We’re looking for a Product Designer to join our team in Oslo or Barcelona.
About Bakken & Bæck
Bakken & Bæck is a technology-driven design studio working out of Oslo, Amsterdam, Bonn, Barcelona and London. Building digital products, brands and businesses, we help ambitious companies identify, explore and respond to new opportunities. We define, design and develop all things digital.
From defining the future home with IKEA to building decentralised platforms with Coinbase; we are in the business of breaking new grounds. As one international team across offices, we have all the skill-sets needed to help businesses adapt to an increasingly complex world.
We’re committed to cultivating a diverse and inclusive workplace where everyone feels comfortable, regardless of your identity, experiences and beliefs. We want BB to be a place where you can try out new things with the risk of failing, where you can take ownership over your own work without being micromanaged, and where there’s a low barrier for coming up with ideas — no matter your job title or discipline.
About the role
We are looking for a Product Designer with a broad skill set to join our design team. Here you’ll be responsible for concept development, researching user and business needs, and designing elegant, easy-to-use solutions to meet those needs. You'll play a key part along with product owners in seeing a project through: from the very first brief to launch and beyond.
Your role will focus on all parts of the digital design process — right from defining the product through to crafting beautiful, easy-to-use interfaces and prototypes. We’re looking for someone who enjoys tackling complex problems, and designing smart and simple solutions for digital products.
We're more interested in what you want to learn and how you want to grow rather than the length of your experience. It's also important to us that you’re happy being a team player who can collaborate well with developers, clients, and other designers.
Qualifications
- 3+ years experience with high quality digital product design on multiple platforms
- A strong ability to turn business requirements, stakeholder goals, and user needs into solutions
- Experience designing user flows and interactions for complex digital products
- Experience working on every phase of the product design process
- Strong communication skills: you can articulately explain and document your process, present your work and communicate your design decisions
- Proficiency in Figma and the ability to see what tools fit the job
Nice extras, but not a must:
- Experience with a data-driven approach
- Excitement about ML/AI applied to product design
- Storytelling/comms skills relating to products
BB's advantages
- Doing things together: Working across offices, we like to gather whenever possible. Whether it’s yearly trips, meetups, parties, shared projects or dinners, we’re big on doing things together.
- Flexibility: It’s hard to squeeze creativity into a 9-to-5 time slot. Recognising our diverse scheduling needs, BB champions flexibility. As long as it doesn’t hamper the project or team, everyone has the freedom to give form to their own work process.
- Power your own idea: Do you have a project you've always dreamed of? A company you admire, or a problem you are dying to solve? At BB you'll have a say in what projects we take on.
- Our hubs: We have put a lot of effort into designing spaces that are more than offices; they’re creatively designed hubs for multiple activities. They’re where we brainstorm, enjoy meals, hold discussions, build installations, host events and organise all types of parties.
- Family support: For the parents at BB, we have created our own “baby kit”, including a €2000 bonus, setting you up for a head start on your new parental adventures.
- Keep it healthy: We’ve got your back with an extensive support package that includes health insurance, sponsored therapy sessions, access to various treatments and more.
- Conferences and courses: You'll get a yearly budget to stay inspired and learn new things
