Senior UXUI designers

Company Description About OleOle OleOle — Where Fans Kick Off OleOle is building a global, football-first social network and messaging platform designed to transform how billions of football fans connect, communicate, discover content, and engage with the sport they love. Think of the social connectivity of X (Twitter), the short-form video experience of TikTok, and the messaging capabilities of WhatsApp, brought together in a unified platform built specifically for football. Our platform combines real-time social feeds, short-form video, encrypted messaging, live scores, club and national team communities, and one of the world’s most comprehensive football history and information ecosystems. Powered by real-time translation across 48 languages, OleOle is designed to connect fans across borders, cultures, and languages. Beyond social networking and messaging, our long-term vision includes an integrated ecosystem of ticketing, travel, commerce, payments, digital rewards, and Mini Programs—creating opportunities for fans, football clubs, brands, and businesses to interact within a single global platform. Unlike traditional social networks, OleOle does not rely on advertising. Our business model is built around commerce, transactions, and services that deliver value to our community. We’re an ambitious, international startup with a growing team of engineers, designers, and product specialists building a platform with the potential to fundamentally change the football fan experience. We’re looking for exceptional people who are entrepreneurial, highly collaborative, comfortable with ambiguity, and motivated by the opportunity to build something meaningful from the ground up. OleOle – Where Fans Kick Off Job Description Senior UX/UI Product Designer We are looking for an exceptional Senior UX/UI Product Designer with a minimum of 7 years of professional experience, a strong visual design foundation, and extensive experience designing consumer-facing mobile applications at scale. Mobile product design is our highest priority. We want designers who have created outstanding experiences for native iOS and Android applications—not simply responsive websites or desktop applications adapted to smaller screens. This is not a role for junior designers or candidates who require heavy direction and micromanagement. We are looking for experienced, independent designers who: Think in systems, not just individual screens. Have exceptional visual taste, typography, composition, and interaction design skills. Understand consumer engagement, retention, discovery, and user behavior. Can own major product areas from concept through implementation. Can evaluate existing designs, identify weaknesses, and raise the visual quality of an entire product. Move quickly, communicate clearly, and thrive in entrepreneurial startup environments. You will work directly with company leadership, our existing UX/UI designers, and engineering teams to shape the core experiences of OleOle, including: Microblogging and personalized social feeds. Messaging, group chats, and mobile voice and video calls. TikTok-style short-form video, discovery, and creation. Live football scores and match experiences. Football history, statistics, and discovery. Mobile onboarding, club and country identity, and fan engagement. What You Will Do Lead UX/UI design for major product experiences across native iOS, Android, web, and tablets, with a strong emphasis on mobile. Create exceptional mobile interfaces with intuitive navigation, polished interactions, strong typography, thoughtful animation, and visual consistency. Design sophisticated consumer experiences that bring multiple capabilities together without overwhelming users. Develop user journeys, wireframes, interactive prototypes, and production-ready high-fidelity designs. Help establish and evolve a unified design system across OleOle’s interconnected products. Review existing designs, identify opportunities for improvement, and help elevate the work of other designers. Collaborate directly with frontend engineers to ensure designs are implemented accurately and perform well across devices. Think deeply about consumer psychology, engagement, usability, retention, and interaction patterns. Contribute to product direction, not simply execute assigned design tasks. Help establish long-term design quality standards and a culture of exceptional product craftsmanship. Qualifications What We’re Looking For Required qualifications Minimum 7 years of professional UX/UI or product design experience. Substantial hands-on experience designing consumer-facing native iOS and Android applications. A portfolio demonstrating exceptional visual design quality in shipped mobile products. Strong foundations in graphic design, typography, layout, composition, color, and visual hierarchy. Deep understanding of mobile navigation, gestures, interaction patterns, transitions, and platform conventions. Experience designing complex consumer products with multiple interconnected features. Strong experience developing and maintaining scalable design systems. Advanced proficiency in Figma, including components, variants, auto layout, and interactive prototyping. Understanding of user psychology, engagement, retention, and product usability. Experience collaborating directly with frontend engineers and product teams. Ability to work independently, take ownership, and make sound design decisions without constant supervision. Excellent communication, presentation, and design critique skills. Highly relevant product experience We are particularly interested in designers who have worked on: Social networking and community applications. Messaging and communication platforms. Short-form video and creator applications. Sports, gaming, and entertainment platforms. Consumer marketplaces and high-engagement commerce applications. Mobile applications serving millions of users. We value exceptional consumer product design experience even if you have never worked in football. Design Leadership and Ownership While this is a hands‑on senior design position, we are looking for someone capable of helping strengthen the overall design organization. You should be comfortable: Taking ownership of complex product experiences. Critiquing and improving existing UX/UI designs. Mentoring and collaborating with other designers. Establishing consistent visual and interaction standards. Working directly with leadership to translate product vision into exceptional user experiences. We are not looking for someone who only creates wireframes, conducts research, or maintains Figma libraries. We need designers who can produce beautiful, intuitive, production‑ready consumer products. Huge Plus Passion for football and global sports culture. Experience designing social feeds, messaging, or short‑form video applications. Strong motion design and micro‑interaction capabilities. Experience designing products from zero to one. Experience improving existing consumer products through major redesigns. Experience with multilingual, international consumer applications. Experience working in fast‑moving, early‑stage startups. Portfolio Requirements A portfolio demonstrating outstanding mobile product design is required. We want to see actual iOS and Android product experiences, including: High‑fidelity mobile screens demonstrating strong visual design. Navigation systems, user flows, and interaction patterns. Examples of complex consumer experiences made intuitive and visually compelling. Clear explanations of your personal design ownership and contributions. Generic enterprise dashboards, templated SaaS designs, wireframe‑only portfolios, or portfolios without substantial mobile work will not be considered a strong fit.
