Descrição da oferta de emprego

Welcome to Planet. We believe in using space to help life on Earth.

Planet designs, builds, and operates the largest constellation of imaging satellites in history. This constellation delivers an unprecedented dataset of empirical information via a revolutionary cloud-based platform to authoritative figures in commercial, environmental, and humanitarian sectors. We are both a space company and data company all rolled into one.

Customers and users across the globe use Planet's data to develop new technologies, drive revenue, power research, and solve our world’s toughest obstacles.

As we control every component of hardware design, manufacturing, data processing, and software engineering, our office is a truly inspiring mix of experts from a variety of domains.

We have a people-centric approach toward culture and community and we strive to iterate in a way that puts our team members first and prepares our company for growth. Join Planet and be a part of our mission to change the way people see the world.

Planet is a global company with employees working remotely world wide and joining us from offices in San Francisco, Washington DC, Germany, Austria, Slovenia, and The Netherlands.

About the Role:

The design team at Planet is looking for a Senior Product Designer to shape Planet's platform experience (insights.planet.com - free trial available). In this role, you will be responsible for defining the core user journeys across our platform, addressing the needs of different user types (from admins, to developers, to end users). With a relentless focus on those users, you will define jobs-to-be-done and design end-to-end user flows across web frontends and agentic workflows. You will collaborate closely with Product and Engineering to decompose these workflows into scalable, reusable UX building blocks, ultimately crafting a cohesive, user-centric platform experience.

The perfect candidate brings a track record of designing sophisticated, data-heavy geospatial applications. This role is full stack, in the design sense: you take a problem from discovery with users all the way to designing and building the interfaces, side by side with our engineers.

This is a full-time, hybrid role which will require you to work from our Berlin or Haarlem office 3 days per week.

Impact You’ll Own:

• Product Design Ownership: Lead the end-to-end process from discovery and prototyping to high-fidelity design.
• Geospatial Interface Design: Create intuitive, powerful geospatial interfaces that translate complex data into actionable insights.
• User Research: Gather feedback and conduct user interviews in close collaboration with product partners.
• UI Architecture: Define and architect the interaction patterns and design system for Planet’s platform.
• Cross-functional Collaboration: Partner with product and engineering to ensure top-tier design quality.
• Culture: Help build and elevate Planet's design culture.

What You Bring:

• 6+ years designing complex digital products, with a track record of shipping technical, SaaS, or B2B software end to end.
• Bachelor’s degree in design or an equivalent field.
• A portfolio with geospatial or data analytics work: interactive maps, layered geospatial data and time series (time sliders, change over time, comparisons), plus the statistics and charts that turn data into an insight.
• Solid core craft in UX/UI, interaction design, prototyping, accessibility, and visual design, plus Figma and enterprise design systems.
• An AI-native way of working. You can prototype in code with AI coding assistants, and you're comfortable with Git and merge requests.
• Research you run yourself: user interviews and usability testing, synthesized into clear product direction.
• Comfort with ambiguity. You take vague, complex problems and drive them to a validated solution without daily oversight.
• A dynamic, iterative, low-ego way of working with PMs, engineers, and other designers.

What Makes You Stand Out:

• Experience designing for developers, data scientists, or AI agents.
• Hands‑on with remote sensing analysis and familiarity with geospatial standards.
• You enjoy meeting customers and are open to travel within Europe.
• Experience helping a team adopt new ways of working.

11:45p / 23:45 CET on the date stated below. Applications are reviewed on a rolling basis. This posting may be removed earlier than projected if a suitable pool of applications has been received. For this reason, we recommend applying as soon as you are able.
