Design jobs at Back Market

Back Market

Founded in 2014, BackMarket is the first online marketplace dedicated exclusively to refurbished electronic devices. With 158M€ raised already, we are sabotaging ‘new’ by connecting highly selected certified professionals to consumers who are looking for a more affordable, reliable and ecological alternative to purchasing brand new products.

Leading the way in a shift towards a circular economy, freeing the planet from electronic waste, and building a global leading tech company are three solid reasons to wake up very morning. Taking part in BackMarket’s adventure means committing to an ambitious project with a strong social and environmental impact!

We are committed to providing an inclusive, fulfilling and caring work environment in all our offices (Paris, Bordeaux, New-York, Prague and Berlin). This is an opportunity for you to join a talented, humble and passionate team at the heart of innovation : our Bureau Of Technology.

About us & the job :

The Product Design & Research team at Back Market are passionate about informing and building interfaces with the user as our focus.  We zoom out to see the bigger picture, but also understand the devil is in the details.
We are responsible for the user experience on Back Market, whether that be our customers or merchants, and through designing, prototyping, testing, and iterating, we evolve it in collaboration with different (and extraordinary) people.  

We do this because we want to make the world a better place. After all our goal is to offer more than just an alternative avenue to buy tech products, we want to do e-commerce differently. <3  

We’re looking for Product Designers (UX or UI leaning) to join us to make Back Market the most successful destination for buying refurbished. 

You’ll collaborate with our Product Owners and UX Researchers to bring a plethora of concepts and product evolution, you’ll work on a daily basis with developers to validate the technical feasibility of your proposals and to ensure the fulfillment of your craft, and you’ll also be connected with other Back Markets functions (Marketing, Brand, Business etc.) to help articulate the needs and expectations of the customer and the business.  

As a Mid-weight Product Designer, you’ll autonomously contribute to the design vision for key areas of our journey and create positive relationships with product squads, business stakeholders, and other designers to deliver impactful results.
You’re at the stage of your career where you bring great ideas to the table, you’re looking for challenging problems to solve for users, and you are considering your growth path in mentoring and coaching other designers.

    • Contribute to the product roadmap and advocating for the right approach, prioritisation, and execution to ensure a best in class customer experience.

    • Collaborating with user researchers to bring clarity to ambiguous problems with relevant customer insights, and consulting quantitative and qualitative data to inform your design decisions.

    • Advocating for and facilitating design methods and tools to help your team deliver solutions that work for our customers and business.

    • Ensuring clarity and comprehension in your ideas and solutions from conception to delivery through useful documentation and tidy working practices.

    • Proactively advocating your impact and autonomously communicating progress, learnings, and goals

You're perfect for the role if :

    • You have at least +3 years of experience working in a growing design & research team and can talk about how you have worked with stakeholders to deliver impact in dynamic environments.

    • You have your ear to the ground regarding new tools and technologies that help us become more effective and efficient.

    • You can contribute inclusive design practices and are comfortable in voicing your opinion.

    • You are obsessive about UX or UI design, you have an attention to detail regarding edge cases, hierarchy, contrast, cognition, etc...

    • You deliver designs with a systematic approach.

    • You think about interfaces not as static pixels but as dynamic experiences and can express yourself effortlessly with motion, flows and stories.

    • You are inherently curious, you are idealistic but you challenge the status quo responsibility and can always find the middle ground.

    • You are comfortable in communicating professionally in English as we are an international team.
