About Wolt
At Wolt, we create technology that brings joy, simplicity and earnings to the neighborhoods of the world. In 2014 we started with delivery of restaurant food. Now we’re building the delivery of (almost) everything and you’ll find us in over 500 cities in 30 countries around the world. In 2022 we joined forces with DoorDash and together we keep on dreaming big and expanding across the globe.
Working at Wolt isn’t always easy, but it’s definitely exciting. Here you’ll learn more, build more, and ship more than in most other companies. You’ll be challenged a lot, but also have a lot of fun on the way. So, if you’re a self-starter with drive and entrepreneurial spirit, this could be the ride of your life.
We are looking for a Senior Product Designer to join our Design System Team within the Central Team. The Central team focuses on providing one north star experience to all our customers at Wolt. You'll be collaborating closely with research, motion, content design, as well as the operation team. Also, with product managers and engineers to ensure that our design system supports their needs and aligns with our brand guidelines and design principles.
This will be someone who has mastered the craft of turning insights into beautifully designed products, who can inspire organisations through prototyping and storytelling to ensure their final work has maximum impact for the customer. We hope that you have strong visual design and interaction design skills, and must be an excellent communicator in order to support designers who are using the system and to align and collaborate with them on the evolution of the system.
This role can be based in our tech hub in Berlin, Helsinki or Stockholm.
**You’re a great fit for this role if you**:
Have experience managing design tokens, components, and assets within a design system.
Design end to end, crafting visually delightful experiences
Ensure high-quality, consistent, and scalable user interfaces
Thrive in a fast-paced organisation.
**What you’ll do**:
Listen carefully. The better you understand our users' problems the better your solutions will be. It’s important for us to know we are solving for real people and not just the loudest voice in the room.
Collaborate across teams. You’ll partner closely with product and engineering teams to find elegant but practical solutions to design challenges and ensure the design system is driving the desired user experience. You’ll provide the thought leadership to inspire and develop the right design direction. Together, you’ll solve problems and come up with solutions that delight our users.
You work closely with engineers to ensure the efficient and effective implementation of the system and collaborate with designers to help them identify and create design solutions, new elements, and components that adhere to the system.
Imagine the way forward. You’ll take full ownership of your work, and be responsible for every last detail, every step of the way. You monitor the usage of the system and provide feedback on how to improve it.
**Who you are**:
Experience. You’ve been designing for 7+ years (app and desktop) for a consumer-focused tech company, so understand what it takes to create elegant, consumer-oriented experiences.
Mastery. You are a versatile t-shaped designer who uses a full range of skills—product design, interaction design, and visual design—to ensure you deliver magical experiences to the customer.
You’re a strong communicator. Who can inspire teams towards action and empathy for the user.
You have a people-focused design mentality. Constantly looking to hone your design instinct through user feedback.
The compensation will be a negotiable combination of monthly pay and equity. The latter makes it exceptionally easy to be excited about our company growing and doing well, as you'll own a piece of the pie.
