Why We Exist
At algo1, we're reimagining one of the world's most overlooked digital experiences: grocery shopping.
Every week, billions of people make hundreds of decisions in stores, often distracted, in a hurry, and with little patience for technology that gets in their way. We believe AI can transform this experience, but only if it's paired with exceptional UX and design.
About the Role
We're looking for a UI/UX Designer with exceptional instincts, strong visual craft, and an obsession with interactive design.
This role sits equally across UX thinking and UI execution. One day you might be simplifying a complex decision-making flow; the next you'll be refining typography, spacing and motion until every interaction feels natural.
You'll work directly alongside our Head of Design to shape the end-to-end shopper experience, from early concepts through to polished production interfaces.
You'll design flows, interactions, prototypes and systems that solve real problems for real shoppers inside real stores.
You'll help evolve the design system that underpins the product.
What You'll Do
- Design intuitive end-to-end product experiences, from discovery and concept exploration through to polished production UI.
- Turn complex user problems into simple, elegant interaction flows.
- Create high-fidelity interfaces with exceptional attention to typography, spacing, hierarchy and visual detail.
- Build interactive prototypes to communicate ideas, validate assumptions and refine experiences before development.
- Use motion and micro-interactions intentionally to improve clarity, feedback and delight.
- Partner closely with engineers to ensure the quality of shipped experiences matches the quality of the design.
- Contribute to and evolve our design system, including components, tokens, patterns and documentation.
- Use AI throughout your workflow to explore concepts, generate ideas, prototype faster and improve design quality.
- Observe real shoppers using the product in stores and translate behavioural insights into better experiences.
