Always dreamt of doing things differently? Join us at Norse Coders, Norse Atlantic Airways' tech and innovation unit, where we work on Norse's future competitive advantages to become a challenger airline.
We think differently and we act differently, that's why as an airline we are headquartered in a town with no airport. We are not afraid to challenge conventional wisdom and test new ideas. We are a data-driven product organization powered by a team of developers, product managers, data scientists and a bunch of potatoes (a Norwegian term for people who can do a little bit of everything)
If these prospects inspire you, then we want to talk to you!
We are seeking a talented UI/UX Design Lead to join our innovative and dynamic product organization, Norse Coders, where you will help set up systems, create commercially-minded designs and build our UI/UX design function. As a UI/UX Design Lead, you will collaborate closely with product managers, software engineers, and other stakeholders to define and execute the design vision. You will play a key role in shaping the visual identity and over time build a team of in-house and external designers.
Joining Team Norse is more than getting a job. It is all about belonging.
