We’re looking for a Senior Product Designer who operates comfortably at both high and ground level – someone who can shape the long‑term design vision and strategy while also rolling up their sleeves to ship polished, user‑centred experiences. Reporting directly to the Chief Product Officer (CPO), you’ll be a key voice in shaping how we build products our customers love at Kevel.

This position is fully remote and can be based out of our Porto or Copenhagen offices, or fully remote from Spain or Australia. Candidates in these specific locations are preferred, however, we are open to other EU locations as well.

Kevel uses external, third‑party market data to determine compensation for all open positions. Our compensation philosophy is based on the candidate’s specific working location and experience level. This means that we will take a no negotiation approach in our recruitment and offer processes. We believe this is an important step in living our value of embracing diversity while underlining our commitment to fair, equitable and inclusive pay practices.

An exact offer for this position will be determined based on the candidate’s working location and experience level, in relation to our existing team.

All compensation packages include the additional benefits as described in the ‘Why you’ll love working with us’ section below. We also have a transparent ‘Total Rewards Philosophy’ we’d be happy to share with you which describes our overall approach to compensation and benefits in full detail! Our recruitment team can share more about this with you in an initial phone interview and will be happy to answer any questions you have related to compensation at Kevel!
