UI/UX Designer

UI/UX Designer

At Spadework, we build AI tools that make recruitment smarter and more efficient. We are a young, fast-growing scale-up in Amsterdam and are at the beginning of international growth. Our products are used daily by recruiters and hiring teams, and a strong user experience plays a crucial role in this.

Therefore, we are looking for a UI/UX Designer who helps take the product's visual and functional aspects to the next level. In this role, you will not only determine how Spadework looks, but also how it feels to work with.

What you'll be doing

In this role, you are responsible for the complete user experience of the platform, from the initial concept to the pixel-perfect execution. You translate product goals and user needs into concrete solutions and ensure that the product feels logical, pleasant, and efficient for the user.

You work daily on intuitive flows and interfaces for a web-based SaaS product. You create wireframes, prototypes, and high-fidelity designs, and use tools like Figma (or similar) to develop your ideas. You know how to distill complex functionality into clear UX design solutions with clear UI design patterns.

You collaborate closely with developers and founders to ensure that your designs are well implemented in the product. Together, you discuss user journeys, interactions, and design choices, and you maintain the visual style and consistency of the platform. Because you work in a fast-growing environment, priorities can change quickly, and no week is the same.

What we are looking for

  • Experience as a UI/UX Designer, UX Designer, Product Designer, or in a similar design role

  • Proficient in Figma or a similar design and prototyping tool

  • You think in a structured way, work user-centered (user-centered design), and apply design thinking where needed

  • You can clearly justify and explain your designs to non-designers

  • You work independently, take initiative, and feel a sense of ownership over your designs

  • Experience with SaaS, B2B products, or AI/tech is a plus, but not a must

What we offer

You will find yourself in an ambitious tech scale-up that is building an AI tools for the recruitment world. Design plays a central role in the product: your ideas are directly visible to users, and you have a significant influence on how the product looks and feels. The team is small, involved, and we do a lot of fun acitvities. So, what we offer:

  • A full-time position with a competitive salary commensurate with your experience

  • Much autonomy and influence on product and design choices within a rapidly growing AI/tech environment

  • Close collaboration with developers and founders, with room to develop in UX Design, Product Design, and prototyping

  • A young, friendly, and ambitious team in the heart of Amsterdam with fun Friday afternoon drinks and team outings!

  • A company laptop and everything you need to design effectively
