Product Designer

About the team: 

We are a cross-disciplinary group made up of writers, designers and researchers. Our team works closely with engineers, data scientists, product managers and other specialties to design and build the platform our 3,400 customers rely on for human insight in their own design process.

We are a globally distributed team, although many of us live near to company offices and choose to work in-person if we want to - those locations include Vancouver, Edinburgh, London, Barcelona and Paris. Our office spaces have been designed to support the kind of activities like workshops or design critiques and these spaces are connected seamlessly to our colleagues around the world via Zoom rooms.

We’re collaborative by nature, user-centered (obviously) and passionate about delivering a product that meets the needs of our customers and contributors. 

Our culture is one of kindness and inclusivity and we encourage and support each other to be our true selves at work believing that we produce our best work in this way.

The Opportunity:

Help us improve product usability and adoption through thoughtful, intuitive and lean design! As a Product Designer at UserTesting, you'll craft experiences as part of a collaborative team of Designers, UX Writers, UX Researchers, Product Managers, Marketers and Engineers.  

This role is based in Edinburgh or Barcelona, but we’re open to consider profiles that work remotely from anywhere in the UK or Spain.
