The Opportunity

We are now looking for an experienced senior-level industrial designer to join our growing global design team. This is primarily an on-site opportunity based in our Malmö, Sweden studio, and the role is available immediately. Become part of our global industrial design team, driving positive change for some of the world's most progressive brands

Job Description

As a Senior Industrial Designer at Above, you will be an integral part of our industrial design team and creative practice at large, while working with diverse, multi-disciplinary project teams on a wide range of cutting-edge design & innovation projects for some of the world's most exciting clients.

With a high level of conceptual and strategic thinking, you will have direct impact in shaping excellent project deliveries through strong craft and creativity - closely collaborating with a multitude of internal & external stakeholders, and often assuming leadership over projects and teams. This role is further expected to contribute to developing our industrial design competence, including workflows, processes, talent & client acquisition, and overall discipline trajectory. Equally, we are looking for an interest in mentoring & growing more junior creatives through close and present leadership.

Our work is exciting and diverse in nature, spanning high-volume consumer products, smart home devices, furniture, robotics, future mobility experiences, progressive healthcare solutions, packaging and many more. We create impact on all levels and horizons - from category-defining hero products with clear go-to-market intent, to multi-dimensional portfolio strategies and compelling future visions alike.

What we are looking for

We are looking for inspiring portfolios that show a progressive approach to industrial design, and believe you possess many of these qualities to thrive in this role:

  • 6+ years of relevant professional experience
  • Previous agency experience with international exposure across a multitude of domains preferred, such as consumer tech, audio & lifestyle products, wearables, robotics, healthcare innovation or similar
  • A well-curated design portfolio showcasing excellent craft, conceptual clarity and refined aesthetic culture
  • Sensibility in working holistically and strategically with brand, portfolio innovation, and complex designed systems
  • Proven ability to lead projects from start to finish while shaping and refining design & innovation processes, as well as guiding and motivating teams
  • A fluid software toolbox (CAD, AI tools, visualisation, storytelling etc), paired with an innate ability to produce and drive top-notch deliverables
  • Pronounced understanding of materiality & design for manufacturing
  • Excellent communication and collaboration skills, capable of engaging with diverse cross-functional teams and stakeholders
  • Strong client relationship and compelling presentation skills, acting as a confident, professional brand ambassador externally
  • Interest in contributing to commercial activities, such as monitoring industry & market movements, client opportunities and project scoping
  • A proactive, driven personality with strong self-leadership, and a desire for shaping our team and creative culture
  • Optimistic, collaborative spirit with a leading-by-doing mentality
  • Care, thoughtfulness, and a positive impact mindset

While we are primarily recruiting for a profile with strong industrial design core competence, we are also open to applications from individuals that bridge disciplines or have unique profiles in adjacent competences. Let's talk
