Your mission at Epassi

To deliver on Epassi’s vision as the “Daily Wellbeing Companion” by unifying and elevating the end-user app experience across all markets.

Your Responsibilities Will Be

Serve as the global design authority for the Epassi App UI layer, setting and enforcing standards across all markets. Lead concept creation, interaction, and visual design for modular/super-app structures, ensuring a unified and scalable user experience. Leverage and evolve the Epassi Design System for overall consistency and operational efficiency.

You’ll Be Successful In This Role If You

You can switch between taking your time to explore interaction concepts and making practical design decisions to make sure we get things done on time.

You are highly collaborative and communicate with ease with other designers, engineers and product managers, as well as brand marketing.

The first 6-9 months: you will define the foundations and the first realization of our future app UX concept together with our current app designers.

What You’ll Be Doing (daily)

Design collaboration and leadership: You will have a morning sync call with a mug of coffee or tea with all the app designers to discuss a global onboarding experience and who will work on what and what does the user research tell us today.

Focus work: Then you will analyse on your own the different user needs and potential flows and interaction models around a key app concept.

Breaks together: Now is time for a break and a lunch with local colleagues.

Seeking alignment and making decisions: In the afternoon you have a 1-1 with the UI Architect and last but not least a meeting with brand marketing to align on a new animation guideline.

What You Should Bring

7 + years of proven success in at-scale, complex apps, e.g. “super-apps”. Knowledge and perspective on the latest app design trends. Understanding of the possibilities and restrictions of AI in both design process and in the end-user experience.

You have a good grasp of how mobile and app technical opportunities and restrictions impact design-decisions. You are familiar with mobile accessibility requirements. Preferably you would have experience from HR tech, Fintech, wellness or sports sector.

Your Language Profile

Fluent English is required, German or Finnish language skills are appreciated.

Your Track Record

You have worked on published consumer apps with a significant user-base, preferably multi-market and multi-language. You have led complex design projects from start to finish. You have created or significantly contributed to app design systems. You have moved key UX and business metrics.

Your Competency Profile

• Able to create visually impressive and easy to use experiences: You understand shape, color, movement and composition, as well as interaction design best practices and how all these impact user experience.
• Data-driven: user research and analytics are important to you, and you understand how to prioritize and balance both UX metrics and business goals.
• Excellent collaboration and communication skills: you are able to express your thinking in a clear way and have productive debates with colleagues. You take into account multiple points of view, empathize with not only users but also colleagues, and you can facilitate complex discussions and decisions with ease.
• Adaptability: You should be able to change your problem-solving approach depending on the task at hand and the surrounding context.
