Hello!
Join us as a Founding Product Designer in a brand-new Factorial product!
We’re building a completely new startup inside Factorial. We’re on a mission to rethink how companies manage workflows, org charts, policies, and analytics, the core of what defines Factorial.
This new team has one goal: take the product from €0 to €100M in revenue by 2030. That's not a typo, and yes, we know how hard that sounds. If a target like that makes you want to run instead of sign up, this probably isn't your role. If it makes you lean in, keep reading.
The good news? We’re not starting from scratch. With +15,000 existing customers, we have a massive opportunity for immediate upselling, supported by a dedicated GTM team.
You’ll be joining from day 0, in an environment where the tech stack matters far less than your ability to build fast, adapt quickly, and shape something entirely new.
Expect a different pace than the rest of Factorial: fast, high-energy, full of things to create, fix, and define. If you thrive in creative chaos, love building from the ground up, and enjoy the vibe of small, scrappy startups more than corporate settings, you’re going to feel right at home.
We’re particularly interested in candidates with strong experience designing end-to-end product experiences, from early discovery and research through to high-fidelity designs and implementation with engineering. You should be comfortable working closely with Product Managers and Engineers to turn ambiguous problems into simple, elegant solutions.
That said, we’re not looking for a long list of tools or frameworks. What matters most is your excitement to build products from scratch, shape the foundations of a design practice, and have a real impact on both users and the business.
The Product Design team at large
At Factorial, we have a team of +30 very talented Product Designers. We look for smart people who are curious, proactive and have great communication skills.
Your profile
1. You are a founder at heart: You’re excited by ambiguity and enjoy taking products from zero to one, shaping not just features but the foundations of how design works in the company.
2. You are an owner: You proactively identify problems, form hypotheses, and take responsibility for leading discovery, design, validation, and iteration end to end.
3. You are deeply user-centric: You believe great products come from deeply understanding user problems and translating them into simple, elegant solutions that drive business impact.
4. You are a systems thinker: You design scalable solutions that establish strong patterns and principles,
laying the groundwork for future products and teams.
5. You are hands-on and pragmatic: You move comfortably from rough ideas and prototypes to high-quality interfaces, working closely with engineers through implementation.
6. You are a strong collaborator: You partner closely with Product Managers and Engineers, challenge assumptions, and help the team make better decisions.
7. You are a builder of teams and practices: You enjoy mentoring others, sharing context, and helping define processes, standards, and culture as the design function grows.
8. You communicate clearly in English: You can articulate your thinking, decisions, and trade-offs in a fast-moving, international environment.
At Factorial, we don’t evaluate you by years of experience, we focus on your knowledge, skills, and impact. How? Our Career Path provides a clear rubric for each level and skill, so you know where you are today and what you need to keep growing. We value transparency, so we discuss the Career Path and the associated salary range during the first conversation.
For this Founding Product Designer position, the annual gross salary ranges from €45,000 to €82,000, depending on your level and experience. This includes a base salary and potential variable pay aligned with company goals.
You will be a Founding Product Designer, taking full ownership of major initiatives and focusing on outcomes, not just outputs. You’ll work with your team to define goals, plan a quarterly roadmap, and make strategic design decisions with the big picture in mind.
You will be directly involved with customers, conducting research sessions, understanding their pains and needs, and turning insights into elegant, usable solutions.
You will collaborate closely with engineers and product managers, reviewing designs, iterating quickly, and receiving feedback at every stage. You’ll help shape the design function, mentor junior designers, and share your experience to lift the entire team.
How We Work (Barcelona Office)
At Factorial, we believe the best products are built when people come together in person to collaborate, challenge ideas, and move fast. That’s why our Product team follows an office-first, adaptable approach (80%-20%).
We work on-site several days a week to connect, align,
and innovate as a team. At the same time, we support remote work when it makes sense, whether for deep focus, personal needs, or a change of scenery. This balance helps us stay agile, creative, and closely connected, while giving everyone the space to do their best work.
About us
Factorial is the AI for Business that knows companies, connects how work happens across the business, and turns that context into action.
Founded in Barcelona in 2016, we now have +1,700 employees serving more than 16,000 companies across 112 countries.
Factorial started with a simple idea: companies were spending too much time managing processes and not enough time doing the work they were hired to do: their best work.
But as companies grow, work gets more disconnected. More people, more tools, more information, and more time spent connecting the dots. Generic AI can answer questions, but it doesn’t know your company. Every time, you have to give it the context.
Factorial is different. Because it’s inside the company, it already knows how it works, including its people, processes, policies, and data. So you can ask it to do real work, from screening candidates and managing expenses to answering questions and creating reports.
AI isn’t the goal. Giving people back their time is.
When work changes, so do we.
