About Us:

At Paideia, we’re on a mission to turn business data into a powerful tool for better decisions and stronger governance - so our customers can focus on driving results. We’re here to turn the complex, sometimes boring world of data management into something intuitive, powerful, and even a little bit fun. Guided by our core values of determination, courage, preparation and empathy, we’re backed by the resources to think big and act bold.

If you’re excited about joining a dynamic team that’s breaking down barriers and empowering businesses to become truly data-driven, you’ve found the right place

Founded by experienced entrepreneurs behind successful companies like Miles, Ardoq, Milient, Bjerk, and AYR, Padeia brings together a wealth of experience, including work with Microsoft, DNB, and Økokrim. We’re on a mission to create an international company with real, tangible impact. Want to be a part of it?

Role Overview:

As a Senior UX/UI Designer at Padeia, you are crafting experiences that make data feel less like work and more like empowerment. You’ll be at the heart of our design efforts, collaborating closely with our Chief Product Officer (CPO) and the engineering team to create user-centric solutions that are as beautiful as they are functional.

We’re looking for someone who embodies our values: empathetic to users’ needs, relentless in solving complex challenges, fearless in pushing the boundaries of design, and always ready to adapt and innovate in our fast-paced startup environment. If you’re passionate about turning the complex into the intuitive and the mundane into the extraordinary, this role is for you.

Key Responsibilities:

• User Research: Conduct in-depth user research with empathy, understanding user needs, pain points, and behaviors, especially within the SaaS and data management space.

• Wireframing & Prototyping: Develop detailed wireframes, prototypes, and high-fidelity mockups to communicate design concepts effectively to stakeholders and the development team.

• UI Design: Design intuitive and visually compelling user interfaces that align with the overall user experience goals, demonstrating determination and creativity in solving design challenges.

• Collaboration: Partner closely with the CPO, engineers, and other team members to ensure that design solutions are aligned with business objectives and technical constraints, while fostering an environment of open and courageous communication.

• Design Systems: Establish and maintain a consistent design system and UI guidelines to ensure a cohesive look and feel across the product.

• User Testing: Plan, execute, and analyze usability tests to validate designs and iterate based on user feedback, showing preparedness in refining and improving the user experience.

• Mentorship: Provide guidance and mentorship to junior designers or cross-functional team members as needed.

Requirements:

• Experience: 5+ years of experience in UX/UI design, with a strong focus on SaaS products and complex data-driven interfaces.

• Portfolio: A robust portfolio showcasing your design process, including user research, wireframes, prototypes, and final UI designs.

• Tools: Proficiency in industry-standard design tools such as Sketch, Figma, Adobe XD, and prototyping tools.

• Skills: Strong communication skills with the ability to articulate design decisions and collaborate effectively with both technical and non-technical team members.

• Mindset: A proactive, open-minded approach with a strong drive to innovate and push the boundaries of design.

• Education: A degree in design, HCI, or a related field is preferred but not required.

With us, every contribution matters. You’ll be a key player in a company that truly values your voice and vision. Sure, we might be five middle-aged men now, but we know we’re missing your perspectives. We’re all about creating an environment that’s as welcoming and open as it is ambitious.

Yes, we’ve got big dreams, solid funding, and we’re charging full speed ahead. It will be demanding and rewarding, but as our CPO, Lars-Erik, says: “That’s why we all need a work environment that flexes around our life, family, and hobbies. Whether you’re juggling school drop-offs, training for a marathon, or just need to make your day work out, we get it. We’re all in this together, and we’re here to support each other every step of the way.”

Still on the fence? Our CEO, Eivind, put it best: “Hey, are we making it clear enough that this is the chance to hop on an amazing start-up journey from day one? I mean, we’re building something awesome here, and people need to know they’re getting in right at the start!” So now you know!
