## Description

At Catawiki, every day brings the extraordinary! We're a one-of-a-kind marketplace for buying and selling special objects. Each week, more than 100,000 unique items are auctioned, all carefully curated by our in-house experts.

Our mission is to become the world's most popular destination for special objects. As a growing, diverse, and sustainable scale-up, we live by three core values: taking ownership and driving impact, being open to change and feedback, and being passionate about our mission and customers.

## Your Mission

Join Catawiki as a UX Designer shaping the experience of buying and selling special objects, from discovery through to the experience after a sale. This role is not tied to a single product vertical: its scope can sit within Demand (buyer-side features), Supply (seller-side features), or Fulfilment (post-sale experiences, including payments, shipping, and customer service).

You'll bring a connected view of the marketplace to your product area, understanding how buyer, seller, and post-sale experiences influence one another. You'll identify where people need support and where design can make the greatest difference, balancing customer needs, business goals, and technical constraints.

## What You'll Do

- Lead design for parts of the seller and expert experience, from research and early concepts through prototyping, delivery, and learning after launch.

- Use customer research, behavioural data, and business insight to frame problems, identify needs, and prioritise design opportunities.

- Turn complex problems into clear journeys, interaction and interface designs, prototypes, and service flows.

- Partner with Product Managers, Engineers, Data Scientists, UX Writers, supply stakeholders, and other designers to shape and deliver solutions.

- Balance user empathy with business goals and technical constraints, connecting your design decisions to measurable customer and commercial impact.

- Contribute to design systems and shared patterns that create coherent experiences across Catawiki.

- Use Figma and practical AI-assisted workflows to explore ideas and build prototypes.

- Communicate your thinking clearly, tell the story behind your decisions, and iterate in response to feedback.

- Navigate ambiguity and competing priorities, getting up to speed quickly with the aim of contributing productively within your first month.

## What You'll Bring

- 5+ years of experience owning UX or product design work end to end, with a portfolio showing how you approached complex problems, the decisions you made, and the outcomes you contributed to.

- Strong interaction design, prototyping, and visual communication skills.

- Experience conducting or contributing to customer research and translating research, data, and direct feedback into design decisions.

- Strong Figma skills and practical experience using AI for design ideation or prototyping.

- Clear, structured communication in English.

- Structured problem-solving, independent decision-making, and systems thinking.

- The ability to manage stakeholders, collaborate across disciplines, and influence decisions without formal authority.

- Adaptability and openness to feedback as priorities, processes, and design tools evolve.

## Helpful Experience

- Working in a smaller product company, e-commerce platform, or marketplace.

- Designing seller journeys or working on marketplace experiences.

- Delivering in less structured environments with several competing priorities.

## How We Work

- Across disciplines: You'll work closely with Product Managers, Engineers, Data Scientists, UX Writers, supply stakeholders, and other designers.

- From evidence to iteration: Customer research, behavioural data, and direct feedback help shape the work.

- With ownership and openness: You'll own design decisions, explain your rationale, and bring feedback into the process.

- With shared patterns and practical tools: We use Figma, design systems, and shared patterns to build coherent experiences.

## Where You’ll Be

This is a Hybrid role based in Lisbon. You will work from our Lisbon Hub a minimum of 2 days per week.

## In Return

- A competitive Annual Gross Base Salary depending on your level, competencies, and overall experience.

- Meal Allowance Card stipend per working day.

- Health Insurance from day 1.

- A Work From Home Allowance.

- Commuting between your home and our office is covered by Catawiki.

- Amazing Office right in the centre of Lisbon.
