Product Designer

About Akera

At Akera, we’re building AI-powered education platforms and automation systems that actually make learning engaging.
In just the past year, we launched 5+ platforms serving over 30,000 students worldwide, and we’re on track to impact 1M+ learners by 2028.

Our mission is simple: help educational brands stand out in the $300B online learning space by combining beautiful product design with cutting-edge AI and automation.

We’re a lean team of 15 people, fully remote, fully global, and we believe in autonomy, speed, and shipping products that make a real impact.

About The Role

We’re looking for a Product Designer who can make learning platforms delightful, intuitive, and addictive to use. You’ll design interfaces that don’t just look good—they keep students engaged and make teachers love logging in.

Some challenges you’ll work on include:

• Designing modern dashboards and learning flows that feel natural
• Integrating AI-driven interactions seamlessly into the student journey
• Turning complex requirements into clean, usable, and engaging interfaces
• Balancing creativity with practicality so designs ship pixel-perfect with devs

Responsibilities

• Own product design from concept → prototype → final handoff
• Work in Figma (Framer is a plus) to create smooth user flows
• Collaborate with engineers to ensure designs ship as intended
• Research student/teacher needs and turn insights into design decisions
• Maintain a strong focus on usability + engagement, not just aesthetics

The Process

1. Apply: Want in? Let us know! Apply for a role and help us get to know your best self

2. First interview: You’ll meet with the Director of the team to talk about you and whether you’re a fit for the job

3. Second interview: Some roles involve a case study. Great! It’s your chance to shine and show us you have what it takes. You’ll present your case study to the Hiring Manager and someone from the team

4. Offer: You did it! There are only a few tickets available, and this one has your name on it. Welcome to the team!
