Product Designer

h3The Role /h3pHelp us build the operating system for human longevity. Virtusan is a Swiss-based longevity ecosystem at the intersection of science, technology, and premium real-world experiences. We connect data, behaviour, and environments so people can live longer, better lives. We're a small team and offer real ownership from day one. We need someone who owns their work completely: defines the experience, conducts the research, designs the flows, and iterates without waiting to be asked. This is not just an execution role. You will shape how our app is used, how it guides people through their health data, and whether it actually changes how they live. You will be accountable for outcomes, not just outputs. The measure of your work is whether users build real habits, understand their biology, and come back because the product earns it. /ph3Tasks /h3h3What You'll Own /h3h3Product concept and experience design /h3ulliOriginate new product concepts from scratch, not just improve what exists /liliDesign complete user journeys that translate complex biometric data into clear, motivating daily guidance /liliEnsure every flow serves behaviour change, not just usability: ask why a feature exists and what it helps the user to accomplish, not just how it should work /liliHold the line on experience quality across the full app /li /ulh3User research /h3ulliPlan and run your own user research: interviews, usability tests, diary studies, and in-app feedback loops /liliTurn qualitative and quantitative signals into actionable design decisions /liliBuild and maintain a clear picture of who our users are, what motivates them, and where we lose them /liliBring user evidence into every design conversation /li /ulh3Design execution /h3ulliBuild and evolve our next app version with fast protoptyping in Figma or Claude Design moving fast without sacrificing foundamentals /liliDesign for the constraints of mobile: clarity, performance, and one-handed use /liliMaintain our design library and high-fidelity mock ups.

experience:
you understand iOS patterns, constraints, and work with a small screen /liliStrong user research

skills:
you design the study, run it, synthesise it, and act on it /liliExpert-level Figma skills and a clean, efficient design process. /liliExperience with AI tools to accelerate the whole design process. /liliFast prototyping and concept validation: you build lightweight, testable prototypes early to prove or disprove an idea before committing to full design. /liliYou iterate quickly on evidence and know when something is ready to build and when it isn't /liliAble to design for behaviour change: you understand how habits form and how design can support or undermine them /liliStrong written English: your product design copy is natural and is an integral part of your designed flows /liliTakes ownership: makes well-reasoned calls independently rather than waiting for direction /liliBased geographically in EU/UK timezone. Applications from Asia or the Americas will not be considered. /li /ulh3Strong advantages /h3ulliExperience in health, wellness, or longevity products /liliExperience building data products data visualisations /liliB2C product experience /liliFluency in German /li /ul
