Howdy future Horizoneer,

We are Horizon.

If you want to learn more about what we do, check out some of our use cases here.

If you're on your journey to further build up expertise in Web Development and UI Design, we might have something for you. Within our Research Management team, you have the opportunity to validate innovations for leading brands, such as BSH, Louis, Yello, Hansgrohe, ALH Group and many more. You'll get to shape the state-of-the-art validation method for innovation and product development.

WHAT YOU NEED TO ROCK THE SHOW

• Tools: Confident in using standard design tools (e.g., Figma, Adobe Suite).

• Design: Applied knowledge in design-related areas such as landing page and brand design, product mockups, or creating marketing ads.

• Work from everywhere in Germany, Frankfurt or Mainz. We are remote-first, and we're currently working on creating co-working hubs where your teammates are.

• You are comfortable working in a fast-changing startup environment where you can actively shape the product and the business.

• You want to work around 20h per week with an outlook of growing into a full-time role.

WHERE YOU'LL ROCK THE SHOW

• Landing pages – design and technically implement landing pages using the Horizon interface. Define the storyline of each page, including the product description copy.

• Ad creatives – create and write 2D and 3D ad assets that reflect each testing variant. These ads communicate the product's value proposition through both copy and design, and are used to attract the target audience to the landing pages via social or search ads.

• Product mockups – design product images and mockups according to the given MVP brand or client inputs for different testing variants, using AI tools or agents 

• Brand design – create desirable brand assets from logo, to color themes, to typography for the idea to be tested

• Communication & design advocacy – at first, you occasionally take part in client meetings and provide design leadership around the product concept to be tested. Your outlook is to gradually take full ownership of client communications & project management.

• Standardisation & process improvements – contributing to process improvements by helping with standardisation and also supporting the ongoing shaping and evolution of our software.
