Why? Because our time is limited, our competition is fierce, and our margin for error is small. For us to have the greatest impact on the world, we need to be laser focused on our core mission, which is...

That’s why Knak exists.

We are a world-class enterprise email and landing page creation platform with a focus on making successful and happy customers by providing them with an incredibly powerful, yet easy to use creation platform.

Our industry leading SaaS solution is built by Marketers, for Marketers. We know that it’s the small things that make the biggest impact and that emails and landing pages are where the rubber hits the road when it comes to Marketing Automation. We change the way Marketers work by making them more efficient, while improving conversion rate of their campaigns and helping them stay on brand.

Oh, and we have a bit of fun while doing it, too!

As Director of Product Design, you'll set the strategic design vision for our organization while building and leading a high-performing design team, with an initial focus on strengthening our Product Design capabilities at Knak. 

You'll champion design excellence across all product teams, drive organizational design maturity, and ensure user-centric thinking is embedded throughout the company. 

This strategic leadership role requires exceptional design judgment, strong business acumen, and the ability to influence and inspire teams at all levels.
