Description

An independent, human-sized digital agency supports clients from various sectors in creating and evolving their business applications and web platforms. Projects are run on a fixed-price basis, from framing through to production release, and remote work is part of how the team operates. The role is a client-facing design and consulting position: understand a business need deeply, shape the right solution, validate it with a prototype, then hand it over to a technical Product Owner for delivery. The focus is on design and advisory rather than delivery management, across several projects and several clients in parallel.
