How and why we do it
At Kisi, you will have the freedom to do your work in the way you work best. There’s a flat hierarchy (work alongside our co-founders Carl, Max, and Bernie!), a strong sense of ownership, and the freedom to get creative. We also try to limit meetings as much as possible, so you can have dedicated focus time. Our mission is clear: ensure ease of facility access and remote space management, providing access systems to create a secure future where spaces are connected and accessible without boundaries.
Your role
We are looking for a talented individual to join our team and shape the user experience for our mobile and web apps, used globally by hundreds of thousands of admins and end users. Your creativity and analytical skills will be utilized to deliver best-in-class experiences (UX and UI) that are seamless, intuitive, efficient, and exciting.
Your responsibilities
Responsibilities include owning the user experience for our mobile and web applications, conducting competitive and user research, gathering feedback, and working closely with our product managers, UI designer, and developers to implement your ideas. You are expected to contribute to design work (UI) as well, so a few years of experience with working with tools like Figma to build user interfaces and other visual deliverables is required.
We strive to move fast and want everyone to make an impact as early as possible. In your first 30 days, you will develop a deep understanding of your context, and in your first 90 days, you will work with the product management team to identify three areas for improvement and present tangible results.
