Clay is hiring for a position of Senior Product Designer in Italy

We are looking for a designer experienced in mobile UI/UX who wants to join our international team!

Fully Remote (from GMT-1 to GMT+3) or from our Milan office

Clay is a platform that helps online businesses create high-quality content by combining customizable templates with stunning animations and effects. Clay eliminates the need to use complex design software and manage marketing consultants, letting businesses focus on what they do best. Check us out on the Web, in the Apple App Store, and in the Google Play Store!

Clay is composed of professionals with experience and passion for content creation, design, or mobile engineering. Together, we own every part of the app publishing process, from User Interface Research to Marketing. And, thanks to this team, Clay grew to have thousands of downloads per day, every single day!

We are currently 18 people working full-time on Clay…but we want to increase the size of the team to keep up with the increase in demand for Clay. Are you up for the challenge?

The success of Clay lies in creating all of the app’s stunning content and high-performing code in-house. For each bi-weekly release, the Product team works tirelessly to understand our users’ evolving needs, design new features, and optimize our product’s user experience/interface (UX/UI). To keep up with this exciting challenge, we are looking to grow our Product team—currently composed of one of our founders, a Product Manager, and two Product Designers.

Starting to work on multiple apps in parallel, has led to a sizable increase in our Product Design needs. This growth is why we want to welcome a seasoned designer with experience in mobile UI design who can aid our expansion. As part of the Product team, this person will work hand-in-hand with our founder and Product Manager to define and own our products’ UI and UX.

The key responsibilities of the role include:

• Building ownership over the UI of our apps and iterating on it to optimize the usability of our products.

• Designing and delivering key design system artifacts, including but not limited to components, foundational styles, and patterns for our Figma libraries.

• Researching the needs of our users and distilling the findings into realizable product updates. 

• Supporting an efficient workflow by implementing and improving processes.

• Being the connective tissue between product management, engineering, user research, and others to construct and grow the design system, own the design execution, and measure ongoing improvements.

• 3+ years of professional experience as a Product, UX, or UI designer.

• 2+ years of professional experience working on customer-facing products, preferably mobile design.

• Solid knowledge of the standard tools and processes used by Product Design teams in the mobile world. 

• Experience collaborating with Engineering, Product, and Marketing teams as part of the product development lifecycle process.

• Competitive pay based on seniority and skillset

• The latest Apple hardware (Mac, iPhone, and anything else you might need)

• 1-month vacation per year + untracked time off if you need more

• A diverse and international work environment that operates in English—we come from countries like Italy, Sweden, Japan, Hungary, Romania, Turkey, Ukraine and we want to keep growing!
