Product Designer

At Famly, we build software that takes admin off the plates of early-years educators, so they can spend their time where it matters - with the children. And we make it easier for over a million parents to stay close to their child's day, even while they're at work.

We're looking for a mid-to-senior product designer to join AIM - the crew responsible for how families and educators connect. That means parent communication, a child's development journey, and the everyday moments that keep parents feeling informed and prepared. Right now we're especially focused on deepening parent engagement across our most-used communication features, and we want a designer to lead that craft.

As a product designer, you’ll work inside our autonomous product teams to craft experiences that make practitioners' lives easier. We're a creative, collaborative group, guided by a highly user-centered design focus. We love to combine research, data, and thoughtful critique. We are curious about discovering needs and solving fundamental problems that impact work in early child development.

The role is based out of our Copenhagen office.

You’re probably wondering at this stage, and Famly are...? Well, it all began when our co-founder Henrik’s daughter was ready to start at daycare. He couldn’t believe the amount of work being done on paper - and how distant he felt from his first child during the day. The paper ‘parent’ books they exchanged once a month just weren’t cutting it. Together with his friend, our co-founder and CEO Anders, they set about solving that.

These days, about 180 of us build Famly for more than 10,000 institutions and over 1 million parents. 

We handle admin stress so they can get back to what matters, and we make it easier than ever to connect home, and nursery so parents can play a part in their child’s day. If you join us, you’ll be building, selling, or support customers with everything from staff rotas and invoices, to child development and parent communication.

Famly prides itself on a few principles; we choose simplicity, we believe friendliness is a superpower, we set the pace, and we want everyone to be surrounded by talent.

It all adds up to a culture that refuses to make employees choose between a place that is ambitious and sets the pace for what good looks like - and one that is a nice place to work. We think you can be ambitious and kind and when you get to meet our team, we hope you’ll agree. 

What we expect of you, is that you make others shine, that you believe in being better than yesterday, and you are not afraid to just ‘get it done’. Finally, we want you to value ‘sitting in the tiny chair’ - which means you look at your work through the impact it has on our customers: the people sitting in tiny chairs in childcare settings all over the world.

• Competitive pension, private health insurance, and paid maternity/paternity leave.

• A clear career framework and coaching to make sure you’re growing, a $1000 personal development budget and a ‘We’ll buy you any book you want’ policy. 

• We guarantee we’ll create the time, space and leadership (as well as the budget) to make sure you grow and develop.

• We want to set the pace, and don’t cut corners when it comes to investing in tooling and technology that you need to be at the frontier of tech.

• We’re all about hiring clever people who are good humans too. It means Famly is full of top thinkers and generous teammates waiting to help you shine.

• We like to give a lot of ownership both in terms of responsibility and freedom to try new, challenging tasks.

• Top-notch work equipment (including noise cancelling headphones for those focus periods!).

• We believe collaboration happens best in person, so we have the default of four days a week in office - but with plenty of flexibility for when life happens outside the office too.

We're looking to fill the position as soon as possible, so get your application in today by sending us:

• Your CV

• Short and precise cover letter to tell us what you can bring to the role

• Portfolio (attached or linked) showcasing your work

Looking forward to hearing from you!
