About the role

Seqera is a company full of people who know the value of good design. We're looking for a Product Designer with a proven track record of designing delightful experiences for technical users. You'll work across Seqera Platform and AI — identifying new opportunities, designing concepts, defining and communicating a vision, developing prototypes, and building toward our product goals.

While this position reports to the VP of Product, you'll collaborate across the company with colleagues in Design, Product, and Engineering. You'll join a growing design team with the opportunity to shape our design system, influence product strategy, and grow your career alongside a team that's tackling some of the most complex UX challenges in enterprise bioinformatics.

This role is ideal for someone who thrives on solving hard problems for technical users, operates well in ambiguity, and is hungry to build great products in a fast-paced startup environment.

• Work across modern design tools and code while collaborating with product managers, engineers, and other stakeholders

• Contribute to and help define our design system and broader design strategy.

• Find creative ways to ship high-quality work in a fast-paced startup environment.

• Define feature areas with excellent attention to detail and polish, identifying opportunities to improve quality and consistency of broader flows.

• Contribute to the strategic direction of our products, rooted in deep user empathy and understanding of our platform.

• Create, collaborate, and iterate on flows, prototypes, and high-fidelity visuals.

• Intellectual curiosity — you enjoy solving hard problems and understanding the "why" behind the right answer.

Nice to have:

• Experience as a developer or designing for developers.
