Job Description

About the job

We are seeking a self-starting and crafty Product Designer to play a key role in shaping the direction and user experience of a deeply technical platform used by firmware and IoT engineers to monitor, debug, and maintain connected devices at scale. Our cloud platform builds on the Memfault device observability tools acquired by Nordic in 2025, combined with location, over-the-air update, security, and device messaging services. You will have direct ownership of product direction alongside product managers and engineers. You will own the design process end-to-end, conduct user research, and contribute to the development of our design system. With your focus on clarity and usability, data‑driven mindset, and excellent cross-team collaboration skills, you will help shape impactful product experiences. This is a unique opportunity to define the overall product experience with the support of a talented and dedicated team.

Key responsibilities

  • Collaborate with product managers, engineers, and customer success to understand how firmware engineers, IoT developers, and device fleet operators use our platform — and what they need to ship faster and debug with confidence

  • Create wireframes, prototypes, and high-fidelity mockups to communicate design concepts

  • Turn complex use cases into simple, user-friendly experiences

  • Contribute to and maintain the design system across our product

Key Qualifications

  • Experience shipping product design in data-heavy B2B software or developer tools. What matters is a portfolio that demonstrates fluency with complex technical products and the curiosity and drive to dive deep into a specialized domain.

  • Proven portfolio of shipping design work in complex web applications or developer tools

  • Advanced proficiency in Figma, including components, variants, auto-layout, and prototyping

  • Strong background in user research, testing, and data-driven design decisions

  • Understanding of systems thinking and component-based design patterns

  • Experience with cross-functional work

Personal Skills

The ideal candidate brings strong visual and written communication skills, as well as the ability to clearly present design work and stand behind their decisions. With a sharp eye for detail and a passion for simplicity and usability, you craft elegant solutions that make a real impact. You thrive in collaboration and enjoy working closely with diverse, cross‑functional teams to shape outstanding product experiences.
