Staff/Principal Product Designer

Amber is an entirely new way to buy and sell power, designed for a world powered by renewable energy. We give customers direct access to the real-time wholesale electricity price as it varies every 5 mins and the technology to shift more of their energy usage to the times when cheaper renewables are available in the grid. It’s a cheaper way to buy power, a smarter way to sell power, and the fastest way for Australia to reach 100% renewable energy.

We are a clear category leader in Australia for home battery automation and are growing rapidly (over 80k customers). We have also recently expanded into licensing our core technology to utilities overseas, including a partnership with E.ON Next in the UK.

Amber is transforming how people access and use energy — helping customers shift usage to times when renewable energy is abundant and affordable, and export to the grid when it has the highest impact. It’s one of the fastest ways Australia can get to 100% renewable energy, and we’re building the products that make that shift easy and rewarding.

We're hiring a Staff or Principal Product Designer — the most senior IC designer on the team. This isn't a role for someone stepping into Staff for the first time. We're looking for someone who's already there: a designer with deep craft, sharp product judgment, and a track record of shaping direction on complex, high-stakes work.

This is a full-time role to be based ideally from Melbourne, but we are also open to considering the right candidate anywhere within Australia.

We are open to discussing 4 days a week or 9 days a fortnight once you're ramped up, if that's what you are looking for. 

Amber is a remote first team; we have an office in the Melbourne CBD, where we work flexibly between the office and home. The vast majority of our team are located in Melbourne. For those based in Sydney, they catch up in a co-working space in the city every now and then, and rest of the locations in Australia work from home. While we don't expect people to attend the office, we do expect that people mostly work in the Melbourne time zone to maximise collaboration. 

🌈 If this kind of work gets you excited, we'd love to hear from you!

Even if you don’t meet 100% of the requirements listed above, we still encourage you to apply. We're open to all backgrounds and encourage people from underrepresented groups to apply. We never discriminate on the basis of race, religion, colour, national origin, gender, sexual orientation, age, marital status, or disability status.
