About Serova
Serova builds personalized cancer vaccines. Each vaccine is made for the individual patient from their own samples and given in partnership with their treating physician. We're a small team building our software and brand from scratch, and design is how patients, physicians and our own scientists experience Serova.
The Role
We're hiring our first designer, and we want one who builds. With tools like Claude Code, one person can now design and ship our website, our component library and the internal apps our team runs on. That's this job.
You'll own design at Serova from brand to product, and you'll take your work all the way to production yourself.

Grad scheme, placement, apprenticeship? Not sure what you want yet — that's fine. Your agent talks it through with you and turns "I have no idea" into a shortlist.
It searches the market for you
Every day your agent scans the market matching roles against what actually matters to you, not just keywords on a CV.
