UX Designer
Background & Purpose of the Job
At Kallos, our vision is clear: to be the most customer-centric company on Earth. We aim to make it easy for customers to find and discover anything they might want to buy online, all while offering the lowest possible prices. But how do we get there? What does it take to solve the everyday online shopping problems our customers face?
We constantly ask ourselves: Do our customers find what they're looking for? If they do, is it priced competitively? And if it's at a great price, can we deliver it quickly enough? The ongoing global pandemic has only intensified these challenges, and we need to ensure that people everywhere can still get essential goods delivered swiftly to their homes.
Our customer base is diverse, and we face questions like: How do we reach people who don’t speak English when over 7,000 languages are spoken worldwide? How do we address the unique shopping behaviors of customers in different regions and cultures?
To meet these challenges, we’re looking for an entrepreneurial, innovative, and accomplished UX Designer who can help elevate and differentiate our customer experience. This individual will be responsible for designing visually compelling, user-friendly, and impactful shopping experiences that enhance customer satisfaction and drive engagement.
The role demands a deep understanding of user experience (UX) and visual design, with a particular focus on leading the creation of intuitive, beautiful shopping experiences. As part of a dynamic agile development team, you will leverage customer passion and insights to improve the shopping journey across new Kallos footprint countries. This role offers an opportunity to shape the future of e-commerce by balancing visionary, high-level concepts with meticulous, detail-oriented execution.
