🦈 Description

CSHARK is a digital consultancy that focuses on innovative products and made-to-measure solutions. We help enterprises with digital transformation and start-ups with translating ideas into products. We like to do things holistically — it's all about finding a balance between business advisory, product design, and software development. We're industry-agnostic, so don't be surprised if one day you end up learning about an area you've never even known existed.

😎 Team & Culture

We've started in 2014 with 23 employees and a flat structure, valuing honesty, an informal, friendly atmosphere, and excellence in everyday work. We're happy to admit that we've grown to over 300 employees and several offices yet managed to stay true to our values. We've been a remote-friendly company from day one, although we cherish the times when we get to meet up in the office and give some high-fives. What keeps us going is:

  • Honesty: we always stand for what we believe in.
  • Support: we look for solutions and try to solve problems, not generate them.
  • People: we're a bunch of cool kids and don't like being confined by processes and rules?
  • Ownership: we choose action over passiveness.

If that's your cup of tea (or any other beverage) - you're in good hands!

The Product Design team has been formed in 2019, so we're still young, creative, and hungry. Since then, it's been growing steadily and lately we've started partnering with SWPS University in Wroclaw. In the role of a Product Designer you'll most certainly be teaming up with Martyna, who runs the team on a daily basis, Krzysiek, our go-to strategist, and working alongside Ula (could show her Last.fm profile, but she doesn’t scrobble anymore), responsible for pixel perfectness and daily jokes, Piotrek, who handles all new business and team soothing and Zuzia, the dog, that has refused to create a LinkedIn profile.

💡 The Role

An ambitious Product Designer — that's you! Curious what will be your daily duties? Well, here's a short breakthrough of your responsibilities:

Leading design projects from start to finish:

  • you work directly with our clients, guiding them through product design processes
  • you're like a Swiss army knife, combining the skills of facilitating discovery and innovation workshops, helping clients define their product UX fundamentals and then translating them into visually-stunning UI
  • being the Swiss army knife, you know your limitations — you're a not a lone wolf and can understand when to ask for some more specific UX support from our strategists or when to hand out the UI project to be polished by our designers
  • you have a consultative approach, proactively advising clients with their product vision with your own solutions and suggestions

Managing and growing selected client accounts:

  • you take ownership of parts of communication with clients — we don't believe in management silos but rather that the people the closest to the subject should make decisions, so you'll be responsible for managing client communication in individual projects
  • you speak English with a confidence and ease — we almost exclusively work with international clients
  • you're a relationship builder and a team player

Building the team with us, adding your expertise to our common stack:

  • you develop and improve your skills constantly
  • you are proactive about daily work and like to take action
  • you participate in setting high quality product design standards
  • you help other designers when in need, being an excellent team player

The Requirements:

  • you have minimum of 2 years of commercial experience in complete Product Design processes backed up by a portfolio that shows you can take it from start to finish
  • you're a seasoned workshop facilitator, being able to host workshops in both offline and remote scenarios, utilising a number of tools and techniques for your product discovery, user understanding and innovation
  • you have demonstrable and reputable UX&UI design skills in creating stunning and stunningly functional visual interfaces for web and mobile in the tool of choice. Yes, we underlined the word „stunning” for a reason.
  • you have a good understanding of the design process and ability to adjust methods to project requirements for the sake of creating intuitive solutions, while keeping to business goals and strategy
  • you know the full stack: user flows, information architecture, personas, grids, colour harmony, typography, etc., and you feel confident about these.
  • you can explain where your designs solve actual user problems and address their needs
  • you are able to clearly and independently communicate your vision and have arguments standing for your design decisions
  • you can cooperate with other team members: UX designers, UI designers, Product Designers, software developers, business strategists, analysts, etc.
  • you’re familiar with design systems and frameworks (i.e. iOS Human Interface, Material Design, etc.)
  • you are fluent in English — B2 level would be a minimum, as we work mainly with international clients.

For bonus points:

  • you have a basic understanding of technical aspects in the web and mobile environment
  • you’re familiar with new and hip software — Miro, Notion, Around, Framer, Protopie, Principle or can even surprise us with your favourites!
  • when in need you can support the team with other design-related tasks (maybe you’re a Branding Maestro, an Animation Aficionado or an Illustration Loco?)
  • you have used some no-code design tools before (i.e. Bubble, Webflow, Thunkable, Bravo Studio, etc.)
  • you like to share your knowledge and talk about your craft — both internally and during meet-ups and conferences
  • you agree with the following statement: dogs are cool 🐶.

💻 Projects you'll be working on

We're really proud and supportive of our clients. Just so you know — you may just have the chance to work on digital products with leading music producers from the UK, help swiftly build innovative start-ups with the brightest Polish minds or add your mark to a true fintech unicorn. We’re happy to say that we don’t get bored easily with the projects of this caliber. The only requirement is to just have an open mind.

One of the last projects we've been working on has collected over a million of dollars on Indiegogo. Happy accident? We think otherwise.

✨ Perks & benefits

We work on projects that require a non-standard approach and fuel your creativity — no boredom on board.

We’re an energetic, open-minded and hip team.

We aim to build a place where you can be your whole self and recognise the positive value of diversity.

We organise Mint Slash Meet-ups — our grassroots initiative, often partnering with SWPS, where you get to share your views on product design!

We quite often participate in training courses and industry events, sharing insights to our craft.

We of course also have the fundamentals: private medical care, Multisport, a company book library, Fruit Tuesdays, Pizza Fridays, you name it...

🔎 The recruitment process

01

When you decide to send us a welcoming e-mail, we'll review your portfolio and CV and reply with feedback

02

The selected candidates will then be invited to an interview with our Recruitment team

03

The next step will be a chance to meet our Design crew and see if we vibe!

04

If we do and the interview goes well, you'll be invited to do a recruitment task — a short (we value your time!) task that displays your real competencies and skills. The task will be based on what we do on a daily basis and the challenges we face so that you can also get a taste of what it's like to work with us!

05

Championing the previous stages will lead you to the final meeting with our Design Leaders where you'll be asked to present your outcome.

06

The final step for champions and champions only — all the paperwork! 😉

We’ll swipe right if you’re a complete package — not only a great designer but also a responsible, down-to-earth, cool human being (this is a must, as we’re not ready to substitute our department with AI…). So — apply away! 🖖
