At Yousician, our job is to reimagine music education, so everyone can play. We’ve built an amazing team of creative, passionate, and independent people, all working together to help millions of musicians learn, play, reach their goals, and have fun. If this sounds like the right mission for you, you’re in the right place!

WHY YOU SHOULD APPLY

This is an executive level role where you will fundamentally shape the experience of our 16+ million monthly active users by driving design for Yousician. You will work hand-in-hand with the executive team and take direct responsibility for the look and feel of our product moving forward. As a Head of Design, this is a unique opportunity to profoundly impact the lives of hundreds of millions of future musicians worldwide and re-imagine the way music education works.

WHAT YOU'LL DO

• Inspire, drive, and articulate a differentiated short-term and long-term vision for design, brand, and interaction language - backed by rationale, insights, and research.
• Be a strong collaborator across leadership in Product Management, Marketing, and Engineering.
• Lead, mentor and grow our talented design team; from implementing design thinking and critiques to modeling effective communication and collaboration.
• Champion execution excellence across the product, understanding the health, performance, and key findings of features driven by design.
• Look for ways to innovate with simplicity across our user experience and product offering for Mobile apps and Web.

WHO YOU ARE

• Demonstrated experience with end-to-end product design (user research, interaction design, visual design).
• You see the big picture but still have the ability and interest to roll up your sleeves and do hands-on design work.
• Strong leader of people, and successful track record of team development and recruiting.
• 7+ years of experience working and shipping products/features collaboratively with Product Management, Marketing, and Engineering.
• 3+ years of management experience with direct reports under your guidance and leadership.

WHAT WE OFFER

• You'll have a meaningful and profound impact on the lives of millions of musicians and future musicians all around the world.
• You'll get a competitive compensation package - salary, stock options, crazy perks - and work in an awesome new office in the heart of Helsinki.
• We have lots of perks and quirks: daily push-up sessions, bonus for sport activities, jam sessions (with more instruments than you can shake a drumstick at!), board game tournaments and sauna evenings, and our famous Greece, Thailand, Tenerife and Bali work-retreats.
