Senior Product Designer

Popsa
Joining Popsa now is pretty exciting. According to Deloitte , we re the UK s fastest-growing startup of 2020. We have a fast-growing global customer base to match, and the backing of some of the best investors in the world. Our native iOS and Android apps are available in 12 languages – attracting more than 3 million users to date – and we ship to 50 countries around the world. Phew. So why is Popsa so hot right now? The reality is, people have never taken more photos than we do today. Our phones are literally crammed with memories. But although we re good at capturing moments – we re not as good at doing anything with them. They ll often sit forgotten on our devices or in the cloud. Then Popsa came along. Founded in 2016, we ve built an award-winning app that s made printing your memories so easy and accessible, anyone can do it. No more barriers. No more time-wasting. In fact, everything we do as a business is designed with this ethos. We help people turn their best moments into something beautiful and lasting, in no time at all. Today we re best known for photobooks, but our vision of the future goes far beyond print. We re building a platform to help people to curate their experiences in lots of exciting ways. We want to become THE place where people come to capture their life stories. To celebrate their most important people and relationships. To create lasting meaning from their experiences. About the role: We re going through an exciting transition to cross-functional teams and as part of that change we re looking to build our Product Design capability. This is a great opportunity to be part of shaping that team as well as the future of our product. We re looking for someone that sees solving for user problems and unmet needs as a fundamental part of the job.
