Role Requirements

• Grew up in the US with a strong knowledge of the pre-university education system.
• 2–3 years of industry experience in UI/UX design.

• Excited by mission-driven tech and motivated by building products that create real impact.
• Experience ideating, prototyping, and experimenting with AI tools (e.g., ChatGPT, Cursor).
• An online portfolio showcasing mobile app and/or web design work products.

Ideal Candidate

• Quality Focus: Obsessive attention to detail and commitment to shipping polished, bug-free experiences
• Collaborative Spirit: Ability to work closely with designers, product managers, and other developers
• Office Presence: Able to commute 4 out of 5 days a week to our office in Kings Cross, with Wednesday being work from home
