Industrial Designer

Hypervolt is at the forefront of the electric vehicle charging revolution, dedicated to providing innovative and reliable EV charging solutions. We launched in 2021 with the bold ambition to transform the EV charging space through a relentless focus on the customer experience, great software, and beautifully designed British hardware.

In a short timeframe, we became Trustpilot's highest rated EV charging manufacturer in the industry
. We are proud to have been named the third fastest growing company in the UK, as part of the Deloitte Fast 50
, and 6th fastest growing company in EMEA, as part of the Deloitte Fast 500
.

Additionally, Hypervolt was voted Driving Electric's Home EV Charger of the Year 2023 & 2024, a testament to our focus on innovation and democratising EV ownership.

Design is one of the most important things we do at Hypervolt — and this is one of the most important roles in the company. You will report directly to the CEO and own the physical design of our products end to end, from the blank page to the unit on the wall. You'll work closely with the VP of Hardware and the wider hardware team, and partner with the VP of Manufacturing Engineering and our contract manufacturing partners, to take beautiful design all the way through to high-quality, on-time delivery.

• Own the Product, End to End :
  Lead industrial design across our hardware family — form, surfacing, proportion, and detail. You own it from first sketch to final production part. The object is the brand, and it’s yours.
• Embrace a Deep Design Ethos :
  We love great design, and we have from day one. We believe there's always room to improve and aim to become one of the best design-focused companies in the world — admiring pioneers like Apple, Braun, and Dieter Rams, whose work inspires us to live the mantra: "Simplicity is the ultimate sophistication."
• Define the Design Language & CMF :
  Establish and evolve a coherent design language and colour, material, and finish system that scales beautifully across the entire product range.
• Collaborate Across Hardware & Manufacturing :
  Work hand-in-hand with the VP of Hardware and the hardware team (our detailed mechanical work lives in Solid Works), and partner closely with the VP of Manufacturing Engineering and our contract manufacturing partners to protect design intent through tooling, mass production, and delivery.
• Design for Manufacture :
  Take products from concept through to production-intent design, designing within real constraints — and never losing the vision in the process.
• Prototype & Iterate :
  Move fast from sketches and 3D‑printed models to high‑fidelity appearance models and renders, putting things in people's hands and refining relentlessly.
• Design for the Real World :
  Create products that are flawless in a studio and bulletproof outdoors — engineering beauty into IP‑rated, all‑weather enclosures built to last for years.
• Own the Whole Object Experience :
  The product, the packaging, the unboxing, the install — every physical touchpoint a customer has should feel considered and premium.
• Drive Quality Through to Delivery :
  Champion craft and consistency, holding the line on quality from the first concept review all the way to the line in the factory.

As part of our hardware team, you will own the most tangible expression of everything Hypervolt stands for:

• Home Chargers :
  Our flagship product line — the beautifully designed British hardware that put us on the map, and the next generations of it.
• Commercial & Destination Charging :
  Bringing the same design standard to hardware built for public, workplace, and commercial environments.
• Accessories & System Design :
  Mounts, cable management, holsters, and the family of objects that surround the core product.
• CMF & Materials :
  Building and curating the colour, material, and finish library that defines how every Hypervolt product looks and feels.
• Packaging & Unboxing :
  Designing the first physical moment a customer has with the brand, end to end.

• Deep Experience in Premium Consumer Hardware : A proven track record of designing and shipping highly polished physical products in…
