Founding Product Designer

Location: London (Hybrid) or Remote

About the role

We’re looking for a Product Designer to help shape the user experience, visual language, and emotional resonance of Hourze from the ground up. This is more than a design role. It’s a chance to co-create how people engage with growth, identity, and proof in the future of work.

You’ll design elegant, intuitive systems that translate complex ideas into simple, empowering interactions. This is a hands-on role where your decisions define how users feel, flow, and trust Hourze.

What you’ll do

  • Design the core Hourze experience: onboarding, learning journeys, skill proof, and dashboards.

  • Define visual systems, design patterns, and component libraries.

  • Collaborate with engineering and AI to bring interfaces to life.

  • Design for clarity, momentum, joy, trust and emotional connection

  • Prototype and test ideas quickly, using honest user feedback to improve flows

  • Work across mobile and web, balancing beauty with functionality.

What we’re looking for

  • At least 3 years of experience in product design or UX/UI, ideally at
    a fast-moving startup or design-led company

  • A portfolio that shows elegant problem-solving, strong systems thinking, and visual storytelling

  • Proficiency in design tools and experience collaborating with cross-functional teams

  • Interest in education, self-development, or purpose-driven product design

  • Bonus: experience with motion design, content hierarchy, or designing for AI interaction

What success looks like

  • Users feel clarity, confidence, and motivation when interacting with Hourze.

  • Design systems are scalable, intentional, and uniquely ours.

  • Product flows feel natural and build user momentum.

  • Brand and product feel seamlessly integrated.

  • You feel ownership and creative pride in the work we launch.

What we offer

  • Full-time salary based on experience and meaningful founding equity in an industry-defining company

  • Flexible hybrid or remote work with autonomy and trust

  • A role that allows you to lead product design and shape visual culture

  • A values-aligned team building with heart, purpose, and excellence

  • Room to grow into Design Lead as Hourze scales

  • Professional learning & development budget

  • A mission-driven culture that values clarity, trust, and self-determined growth

The future of careers is to have a fulfilling life of your own. Join us in making this a reality.
