🌟 Join us as a Founding Product Designer in a brand-new Factorial spinoff!

We’re building a completely new startup inside Factorial. We’re on a mission to rethink how companies manage workflows, org charts, policies, and analytics, the core of what defines Factorial.

This new spinoff comes with a bold ambition: growing from 0 to 10 million in under a year. Yes, it's an extremely ambitious target… and that’s exactly why we’re looking for people who get excited by challenges of this scale!

The good news? We’re not starting from scratch. With +15,000 existing customers, we have a massive opportunity for immediate upselling, supported by a dedicated GTM team.

You’ll be joining from day 0, in an environment where the tech stack matters far less than your ability to build fast, adapt quickly, and shape something entirely new.

Expect a different pace than the rest of Factorial: fast, high-energy, full of things to create, fix, and define. If you thrive in creative chaos, love building from the ground up, and enjoy the vibe of small, scrappy startups more than corporate settings, you’re going to feel right at home. Factorial is hiring a Founding Designer to help us build the next generation of internal IT tools for thousands of businesses worldwide.

We’re particularly interested in candidates with strong experience designing end-to-end product experiences, from early discovery and research through to high-fidelity designs and implementation with engineering. You should be comfortable working closely with Product Managers and Engineers to turn ambiguous problems into simple, elegant solutions.

That said, we’re not looking for a long list of tools or frameworks. What matters most is your excitement to build products from scratch, shape the foundations of a design practice, and have a real impact on both users and the business.

💻 About the IT Management Domain

You’ll join the newly formed IT Management domain, where we’re creating a platform to manage onboarding, permissions, support, and equipment, so new employees are productive from day one. If you’re excited about shaping a new product area, owning features end-to-end, and working in a people-first company with a strong engineering culture, this role is for you.

Our mission in the IT Management Domain is building this new product in Factorial, including multiples moving pieces (inventory management, support ticketing, MDM, IdP, integrated onboarding, etc.), so employees are productive as soon as they receive the equipment and complete the onboarding process.

The Product Design team at large 🙌🏼

At Factorial, we have a team of +30 very talented Product Designers. We look for smart people who are curious, proactive and have great communication skills.

For this Founding Product Designer position, the annual gross salary ranges from €45,000 to €82,000, depending on your level and experience. This includes a base salary and potential variable pay aligned with company goals.

You will be a Founding Product Designer, taking full ownership of major initiatives and focusing on outcomes, not just outputs. You’ll work with your team to define goals, plan a quarterly roadmap, and make strategic design decisions with the big picture in mind.

You will be directly involved with customers, conducting research sessions, understanding their pains and needs, and turning insights into elegant, usable solutions.

You will collaborate closely with engineers and product managers, reviewing designs, iterating quickly, and receiving feedback at every stage. You’ll help shape the design function, mentor junior designers, and share your experience to lift the entire team.
